Ultimate Beachy Hair Waves Tutorial

Let'S create the ultimate beachy hair, waves., I'm so excited. And then at the end, I'll share with you guys how to create it on shorter hair, using different techniques and different tools.. Let'S begin., This right here is the ghd, their 1.25-inch curling iron.. In my personal opinion, from testing different methods, I think it's best to get this method using a curling iron with a clip.. I like this one right here. I don't love this curling iron, but I like it for this style because the clip it's not sticky very easy to use very easy to control. It doesn't work against you., So you can use a flat iron. You can use a curling wand whatever, but I think this one right here and also a 1.25-inch.. It might seem really thick for you, even if you have shorter hair, but trust me. This will work and it's phenomenal., Let's prep my hair. And we're ready to begin.. I'M gon na use the Bumble and bumble the Hairdresser's, Invisible Oil Primer.. This is the Tangle Teezer, their Ultimate Finisher Hairbrush.. I personally like to start curling from the back to the front, just splitting the hair right down the middle in the back and bringing it to the front as much as I can.. It'S obviously a lot easier if you have longer hair, (, chuckles ). To do this, but you can also do this with shorter hair. And I'll show you guys again at the very end how I did it., But I'm taking pretty big sections.. That'S why? One of the reasons I love using a 1.25-inch., It kind of gives it that sweet spot., So I'm gon na be curling away from my face first., And this make sure your clip is at the top.. You don't want the clip at the bottom.. So if you're curling away make sure your clip is at the top. And I'm gon na kind of start and kind of very gently drag towards the root. We're gon na drag once making at least one full twist. Hold it. This goes very quick.. You go underneath kind of drag it down, hold your clip. Wrap once another full twist. Down, use your clip, open it up. And then one more full twist and then down. And then very gently dragging it through.. But I'm always opening the clip. When I kind of drag the hair through or pulling the hair through the clips. And that's the first curl or first wave. - And this is where you can get crazy. - You can go with multiple different directions. - You can go forward back forward. Back.! You can go all in the same direction.. It just is up to you.. I sometimes like to go in the same direction.. Sometimes I like to mix it up alternate., So I'm gon na show you guys the alternate version.. So if you wan na go with the waves towards your face, your clip is towards the bottom.. So I'm doing the exact same thing. Gon na run kind of right like this. Let go of the clip twist make a full twist. And you're gon na kind of drag down using the clip. One. More full twist. Drag down just very gently. And then last twist. Just like so it's very easy. And I'm gon na do this one as one big section. And I'm always always utilizing that clip to make sure I don't rip my hair out. ( laughing ), And This side, the exact same thing. On the right side, the clip is going towards me.. So on the bottom. Hold. I'M gon na open the clip a little bit. It'S too close to the scalp.: Do a little whoop. Unclip, full roll. Down unclip, full roll down down and drag., And then this time to go towards me, it's on the top., So you'll see in the mirror change the direction of your curling iron, which way your Clip is supposed to go. And I do recommend to use as a mirror for several times. And then once you get the hang of it, you don't even need a mirror at that point., It's more about like sectioning and if you've missed any hair, ( laughing ). But I can easily do this without a mirror. And what I like about this method or this technique, it's so fast and you don't hold the curling iron on your hair for so long, especially compared to the traditional method. Moving on next section.. This one's going right. Where the temples are. And I just like to go all the way to the back., I know some people like to section off with multiple clips.. I just do it this way. And just bring it up into this loose messy top knot. And secure and again go in the back and divide and bring the hair forward. And then same thing. Add a little bit of the hair primer and then continue curling. The hair. Make sure to brush it through.. That means all the product is gon na get dispersed properly. And it's gon na ensure I don't have any knots. The longer your hair, the more twists you're going to do.. So when you get close to your ears, you don't have to bring the curling iron up so close.. That way, you have space to really move it down. And make sure you move it away away from your ears. ( giggles ), not towards that's the one thing. Away. See how I'm pointing the tip'cause, the tip is not hot. I just wan na I wan na really ensure that ( giggles ) tip it away or twist it away from your ear or from your head altogether.. I'M gon na go one more time., So it depends how thick your hair is. How many layers you have all that good stuff., And this is where it would be the time to section your parting line like where you want it to lay.. If I was gon na, do it on the side, this is where I would actually start with that parting line and then just divide it on the other side, where there's more hair., Because I'm going in the center, this doesn't really matter., I'm just gon na grab. All that hair. And the higher I get to the top of my head. The further I get away from my root'cause. I find that it just blends the easiest and the best as the hair falls out throughout the day. And depending how often I wash my hair. It just looks better., So don't go all the way up to your root. And another thing when you're starting, don't just start straight. Kind of give it a little angle to help twist the way you're going to twist the hair or the wrap around with the curling Iron. That way the curling iron's working with you not against you., And it goes by fast because you're taking big sections. And these ones I kind of get a little bit closer.. Let go bring it around., Just because I have shorter hair pieces around here. And then very top section. I start pretty low, leaving quite a bit of hair at the top towards the root.. You know what This top section, I'm gon na go all in one direction. Just because it's a smaller section of hair towards the top. And you'll still see the other pieces peeking through the ones that are going, the different direction. These front pieces, I'm picking them a little bit closer to the root just to get a little bit of a Bend for those tiny little baby, hairs. And then just down trying to keep it similar. Should be similar, enough. ( laughing ), Okay. So this is what we look like after all of that., I can kind of recheck see if something fell out too much.. That means I wanted to hold it a little bit longer., It's usually the very bottom pieces'cause I didn't put as much heat on them.. So this is the time to look and see if you want a little bit more curl or more wave., I'm just gon na. Take a little bit right, here. And it's gon na take literally a couple of seconds. Next you can add dry shampoo., You can add texture, spray. I've just been going without lately. And just take your fingers and tussle this through. Okay. So I wanted to show you guys that you can do a different part with this style and this method, if you're, alternating the waves., It just looks good any way. You part your hair., So I think it also adds that little extra volume, if you do style it in the center and then when you flip it to either side you get that nice little boost of volume that you didn't really even have to work hard for.. I also wan na show you guys what this method looks like on shorter hair as well, and you can achieve it.. It'S really beautiful., It's all about in the wrist of how you twist your curling iron., And I think you will get this down.. I will say this: I've repeated myself so many times not in this video, but just in general practice, practice practice and practice in front of a mirror with a cold hair tool., Your cold curling iron. Just so, you can really get that wrist down, get really comfortable and then try styling your hair once it's hot. (, chuckles ), And once you feel comfortable and confident that you can do it without burning yourself, ,'cause, that's the biggest thing you don't wan na burn. Yourself. - And I don't want you burning yourself., But practice practice practice with a cold tool. And I think you'll get it down because I obviously did not know what I was doing until I practiced and really got it down from the technique down to the style down To the overall look that I personally love with my hair with the length and then different texture as well., But I do wan na show you guys a couple of different techniques on different hair lengths that I've done in the past.. So the first one is super. Popular. It's using a flat iron or a hair straightener., So I'm gon na take a section of hair With these kinds of waves. I like to alternate my waves, The first section of hair, that's closest to my face. I'M gon na take it away from my face And then alternate Take my flat iron and I always like to point it down.. So I'm gon na take my hair into my flat iron And very gently just twist away once And just very gently bring it down.. Just like that. And sometimes I'll go back in And straighten the ends just to give it a nice straight look.. So for the alternating wave, that's going toward my face. I do the same thing., But I'm gon na do the wave towards my face once And then go down very gently And I'm gon na do the same thing on the other side, But just switching my hands So my left hand on my right side Right hand On my left side. And then one little thing, if you do have the Dyson Airwrap ( chuckles ), I also created beachy waves using the Dyson Airwrap.. I think I used the one-inch, But basically the thin wand, to curl your hair or to wrap your hair around the wand. That'S the one that I used., But I will show you guys right now what it looks. Like. All right, I'm gon na look, which way I need to go first.. So this one, I'm gon na, go on my right, side. And I'll, be using the Airwrap going down instead of up and I'll, be wrapping the hair and holding the hair there for a good 10 to 15 seconds on the high heat air flow and with the Heat and then turning the Cool Shot on for about 10 seconds to really set the curl in place.. You can see the ends are a little bit straighter, it's not as curly all the way down and that's exactly what I'm looking for. For this lower section of hair, I'm taking bigger sections just because the hair's shorter and it's gon na be covered with the hair. From the top, so I'm not really trying to put as much time and effort into this lower section.. That'S so satisfying.. Next, I'm gon na change the barrel going to the other direction.. This is the one thing I had an issue with when I first tried out Dyson. I just didn't like that. You had to change the barrels from one side to the other, but ... Now that I've lived with it for quite some time. It'S not that bad! Actually So for bigger sections, I'm gon na take a little bit more time, just because they are thicker.. You can leave your hair like this parted in the center or you can flip it to one of the sides. Bam. Look at that volume.! Well, there you guys have it.. I hope you enjoyed this video.. I hope you enjoy this technique.. I know I've done this before, but I wanted to give you more of an updated, more in-depth of how to do it and how I like to do it.. But thank you for watching spending time with me and I'll see you in the next one very soon. Bye. ( Milana blows kiss )
