Tips for creating PERFECT BEACH WAVES
Beach waves are the number 1 request behind the chair these days. Most people want an effortlessly chic look, especially here in Florida. The weather is hot, humid and sticky. As a stylist, I do not like spending generous amounts of time on my styling, only for it to be ruined as soon as I step outside. My goal for the guests that sit in my chair is to help them with easy how tos for home styling. I call it “high maintenance looks with low maintenance effort.”
I like to kept a styling routine for hair anywhere between 10-15 min, and using the right combination of products to achieve that look.
Depending on your hair type/texture I recommend the shampoo/blow dry be the day before, rarely will hair hold a nice wave on same day shampooed hair since it’s slippery clean. Using the Aveda Shampowder dry shampoo, hit the roots of the hair to absorb any unwanted oils/sweat etc. Once you’ve done that section hair into three sections, a bottom, a middle, and a top.
Using a 1 inch barrel clamp curling iron take sections 1-2 inches wide and curl away from the face all while leaving the ends of the hair out, usually around an inch or so depending on the length of your hair. After all 3 sections are completed, flipping your hair upside down I then take the Aveda Pure Abundance Hair Potion (dime to quarter sized amount) and finger comb the curls out with that potion. It adds texture to those curls and gives a light hold.
Once you flip the hair back over smooth out any pieces that may have went a little crazy, usually this can be done by wrapping your finger around the curl. I, then, spray the Aveda Air Control Hairspray all over, this is a light hold hairspray but is buildable so use as much or as little as needed depending on your hair type.
Voila! You now have the perfect effortless beachy look/vibe without the damaging effects of the sun or salt water.
