There’s something truly magical about perfect ringlet curls—they’re bouncy, joyful, and turn heads everywhere I go. In this guide, I get personal about how easy it is to achieve and maintain those classic spiral curls, whether your hair is natural or you’re dreaming of new looks with a curly wig. Ready to fall in love with your texture or try a new curly style in 2025? Let’s get started and see how beautiful ringlets can really make you shine.
Ringlet curls are those springy, spiral curls that bounce as you move. They stand out because each curl forms a perfect, well-defined coil. For me, these curls are all about personality—they’re bold and playful, yet super chic. Whether you see your own curls as loose or tight, ringlets always keep the spotlight on your natural beauty and realness, something I value so much as part of Luvme Hair’s "luvme for you, for real" spirit.
Corkscrew curls: Tighter and smaller, like the spirals on an old-fashioned phone cord.
Spiral curls: A little looser, but still true to the spiral shape.
Coily curls: These pop up in ringlets, but with tighter, more zig-zag patterns.
Depending on who you talk to, people use these names for slightly different looks, but they all celebrate the same fun, energetic shape.
When I’m short on time and want flawless ringlets, I reach for my curling wand. Here’s my go-to:
Start with freshly washed and dried hair or your favorite curly wig.
Section the hair into small pieces; the smaller the section, the tighter the curl.
Wrap a section around the wand for 10-12 seconds, then gently release.
Let curls cool before touching them—this keeps them defined all day.
If you want a break from heat, overnight foam rollers are a classic trick I use for healthy spirals:
Apply a leave-in conditioner or light hair mousse.
Wind small hair sections onto the soft rollers.
Sleep in the rollers—and in the morning, unwind and separate gently with your fingers.
This is my favorite for no-fuss, defined ringlets—especially on a Long Curly Wigs style or my own hair:
Divide hair into sections and braid or twist each one while damp.
Let air-dry overnight or use a hooded dryer for faster results.
Carefully unravel each braid/twist and fluff for bouncy, coil-like curls.
I always say: let your own curls shine! Nourish them and don’t over-style. Use a curl-defining cream and let those beautiful ringlets take center stage.
To get this softer, romantic style, I use larger sections with my rollers or wand. It creates gentle ringlets that flow together for a dreamy, natural finish.
For big energy, go with tight ringlets! Smaller sections and a little extra hold from your favorite styling gel make for showstopping definition.
I love how ringlets look on longer hair. With a Long Curly Wigs, you get drama and bounce, letting every curl tell its own story as it moves.
Sometimes I want my ringlets bigger, bolder, and with extra volume. A quick blowout with a diffuser, then finger-twisting the curls, gives me glam, red-carpet-worthy results.
When it comes to care, I focus on moisture, gentle detangling, and protecting my curls at night. I always use a silk or satin bonnet to avoid frizz while I sleep. Lightweight oils and curl-refresh mists keep my spirals looking fresh every single day. And yes, whether it's my natural coils or my favorite Luvme Hair wig, consistency makes all the difference!
If you haven’t celebrated your ringlets yet, there’s no better time than 2025. Whether I’m styling my own hair or switching it up with a curly wig, ringlets make me feel lively, glamorous, and true to myself. Try these tips, experiment with styles, and enjoy every single curl—because they’re yours, for real.
