Step-by-Step Guide

Now that you know what victory rolls are and why you should learn how to do them, let’s get started!

Start by sectioning your hair. Divide your hair into two sections, one on each side of your head, and secure them with clips.
Take a small section of hair from the front of your head and use a hot roller or curling iron to curl it away from your face.
Once the curl has cooled, use your fingers to gently loosen it and create more volume.
Next, take the section of hair and roll it back towards your head, creating a loop.
Secure the loop in place with bobby pins.
Repeat the process on the other side of your head, making sure that the loops are symmetrical.
Once you have both loops in place, use your fingers to gently tease the hair at the crown of your head to create more volume.
Finish the look with hairspray to hold everything in place.

Practice makes perfect. Don’t be discouraged if your first attempt doesn’t turn out the way you want it to.
Use hot rollers or a curling iron to create a more defined curl.
Don’t be afraid to tease your hair to create more volume.
Use bobby pins strategically to keep your victory rolls in place.
