How To: Beachy Waves Step By Step
My little secret to achieving Victoria’s Secret style beachy waves is to alternate your curls. Starting from the back of your head, split all your hair into two even sections (step 1). You’ll be working with 2 to 3 inches of hair at a time (step 2). Curl the first strand of hair away from your face (step 3), then curl the second one towards your face (step 4). This will give you a lot more volume than curling everything in one direction because the curls will repel one another (step 5). Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you’re finished on both sides and leave the curls to cool down.
Then, run your fingers through your curls (step 6), separating each curl into lots and lots of loose curls, and you’re done (step 7)! If your hair is very fine or hard to hold a curl, apply hairspray all over your waves to help keep them big and voluminous. If you need any more tips, feel free to tweet, facebook or email me, and I’ll reply ASAP!
