July 22, 2025

Featured, Health & Beauty

From Salt Lake City to your screen, the signature soft, voluminous curls seen on SLOMW (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives) have taken the social media world by storm. The good news? You don’t have to be in Utah—or have a glam squad—to recreate the look. These are the top products (tools, prep creams, treatments, and finishing touches) making “Utah Curls” achievable at home, with serious shine and hold, minus the crunch. —Ashley Harris

Dyson Airwrap i.d. multi-styler and dryer

Dry. Curl. Shape. Diffuse. Stretch. Smooth and hide flyaways. With no heat damage.

This cult-favourite tool practically does it all: it uses the Coanda effect to curl and smooth without heat damage, while the 2-in-1 smoothing dryer attachment preps and polishes your strands. For curls that actually last, it’s the holy grail.

Dyson Chitosan Pre-Style Cream

2x longer hold. Without the crunch.

This innovative styling cream gives you two times longer hold thanks to Dyson’s Triodetic Technology powered by chitosan—locking in natural movement and shine without stickiness or residue. Use on damp hair before styling to help your curls stay intact all day.

Drybar High Tops Self-Grip Rollers

Add mega-lift exactly where you want it.

If you’re looking to maximize volume at the crown or revive second-day curls, these self-grip rollers are your secret weapon. Pop them in while you do your makeup for a major blowout effect with minimal effort.

JVN Hair – The Essential Dry Shampoo

The micellar-powered Essential Dry Shampoo (from the new Perfèct collection) refreshes without buildup or dullness. Formulated with Mediterranean algae to help regulate sebum over time, it’s ideal for keeping your curls bouncy and clean between washes.

Bonus picks from JVN Hair:

Complete Hydrating Air Dry Hair Styling Cream – smooth frizz and define texture

Nurture Intense Hydration Mask – 72 hours of hydration for soft, glossy hair

Redken Acidic Color Gloss: Naked Gloss Lightweight Oil

Keep your colour vibrant and your curls radiant with Redken’s new Naked Gloss Oil. This featherweight formula adds high-shine and softness to styled strands without greasiness.

Nexxus Styling Must-Haves

Two perfect supporting players:

Blow Dry Cream – Controls frizz and boosts volume thanks to StyleProtect Technology
Maxximum Finishing Spray – A flexible finishing mist with all-day hold for fine hair

L’Oréal Paris Density Boosters

This TikTok-viral scalp system is packed with Aminexil-R to strengthen hair fibers and reduce breakage. Whether you’re aiming to restore density or maintain fullness, this three-step system (shampoo, conditioner, and serum) can transform your root health and give your curls a more plush, lifted finish.

Briogeo Style + Treat Collection

For ultimate multitasking:

4-in-1 Smoothing Weightless Hair Oil – ideal for fine to medium hair
Supreme Shine Strengthening & Styling Oil – perfect for thicker textures

Infused with plum and yuzu and loaded with protective ingredients, this duo keeps hair polished, hydrated, and safe from heat.

Final Tip:

Utah curls are less about perfect spirals and more about body, softness, and long-lasting movement. Don’t be afraid to layer your products thoughtfully (always start with a cream, follow with oil, and lock it in with a mist) and sleep with rollers to set overnight. Most importantly? Let the curls fall and soften for that dreamy, lived-in look.
