What if I told you there was a way to get heatless, overnight curls without purchasing anything, and which will give you a style (seemingly) endorsed by Nicole Kidman? You may even already be familiar with this method. I’m talking about that tried-and-true classic, overnight braids, a basically foolproof way to get the crimped, haute-hippie waves rocked by Kidman at the Spellbound movie premiere on November 11.

Notice how Kidman’s waves start just above her ears, then taper off before the ends of her hair. This look is easily achieved at home by putting damp hair in two braids before going to bed. For a little extra hold and texture, you can add your favorite salt spray or curling cream before braiding. When you wake up, undo the now dry braids, and reveal your own mermaid-esque waves.
