HOW TO GET BEACHY WAVES





Gone are the days when women are pressured to have stick straight polished hair. Messy hair or as we now call it the "bed head" look/trend is apparently IN and there is no denying that majority of women nowadays all love the just-rolled-out-of-bed, laid back beach waves. I remember way back when i was in middle school to high school when all the girls in my class would carry a trusty hair doctor comb (remember those days?) including me of course and all we ever do in the bathroom is comb the heck out of our manes. Yes people, that was the trend way back then. Luckily now we get to enjoy the more laid back way of styling our hair that fine haired women like me are so grateful for. With that said, here's how i achieve that laid back beachy waves.



What you'll need:

-Blow dryer
-Curling wand
-Hair clip
-Heat protection spray
-Strong hold hair spray or Sea salt spray


Step 1
blow dry or better yet air dry your hair before anything else and make sure to brush out any tangles.


Step 2

Apply heat protection spay on the areas where you want to curl and split your hair into sections. I usually just clip up the top section of my hair.


Step 3

Start curling the front section of your hair. I normally start with the first side then i move to the other because it makes it so much easier and less messy. I wrap my hair around the iron going away from my face and i leave the ends out to achieve that messy beach waves.  I like to brush it out after curling because it just makes it look effortless and more laid back. And another thing is i don't curl my hair in the same direction to avoid it from looking too glammed up.


Step 4

Set your curls with a strong hold hair spray or if you really want to achieve that perfectly unkempt waves, finish it up by spritzing some sea salt spray.
