Have you ever wanted a hair like a mermaid me too? So let's do it. If you are new to the channel, make sure you hit that subscribe button and tap the notification bell so that you get a little notification every time I upload today, what we're going to be doing is turning this little bit, nothing hair into something that is really Cool mermaid waves, so this is a super, easy style to do. It looks a really awesome and it looks like it was a lot harder to do than it is. The only thing that you really need is one of these. This is a waver, it's essentially a crimper. Basically, if you remember crimpers from like the the 90s or early 2000s, and they were like these little zigzaggy things, that's what it is. So this is what it looks like and you shouldn't just crimp your hair in there. These are just much bigger barrels and they result in these really cool kind of waves. Now, obviously, the idea with mermaids is that they have these really long bits of hair, that kind of like color their little shell bikinis and obviously, whilst my hair is growing very fast, it's not quite long enough to do that. Yet so I'm going to be popping in at some clip in hair extensions, actually just got myself a brand new set of luck, C's, and so I'm going to go ahead and put those in normally. I cut these a lot shorter for day to day wear, but I think I'm gon na leave them at full length and I might cut a few little layers in there just so that it blends nicely with my hair. But essentially I want this to look kind of as long as possible. The great thing about this new set is it's actually balayage. You can see like the highlights there towards the ends, which is awesome because they used to clip in two different colors as a clipping like the chestnut and the blonde, and I would try to make those two colors sort of match the highlights in my hair. But now I'd like to do is basically its thread Minh and I'm done so. The only difference really was clipping in the extensions is normally. I don't really put that much to the front here, because I'm quite fine with there being a little bit of like soft layers around my face framing the faith, but with this hairstyle you actually don't really want all the different layers around here. So I've gone ahead and clip the little individuals right towards the front of my face so that I've got a lot to play with here and that will just offset these little short layers here, a little bit more okay. So whilst this hairstyle is ridiculously easy to do, there are a couple of tips at which are going to help with the results at the end and the first time I tried this, I didn't really do any prep or anything I just like got the waiver and Just started crimping my hair with it, and it turned out really quite fluffy and almost a bit frizzy. So what I recommend is that if you have your own sort of roots - and they haven't just recently been cut and they're - not super super fresh, get some sort of anti frizz oil, or something like that. This is the John Frieda Frizz Ease serum. So just get a couple of pumps of that and just get any like frizzy pieces covered in that, so that they're not looking all weird and ragged here. At the end, the next time I'm just going to separate at the lowest section - and I do want to take fairly small sections here when I curl my hair, I tend to take pretty large chunks because I just want really big waves, whereas with this you know The result of the crimping is really gon na differ if you've got a really chunky piece of hair in there. So you just need to take a little pieces like this and it's ideal. If you've got a little bit of hairspray on you just to prep each piece so that the wave holds a little bit better, so I just give it a little spritz. Then I give it a little brush through with the comb, and then you just go ahead and grab your waver. I'Ve actually got this on the hottest setting here, which means it's only going to take a few seconds per crimp and then what you want to do is basically just know and that's basically it and that's basically it you pretty much just chill. So the key is to take small chunks of hair and then just work your way down them like that and see how that's starting to get that little wavy texture going on there. It'S super easy, it's just time consuming so put on a song or a youtube. Video or something, and just basically do that, I'm actually really interested in what you guys like to watch on YouTube. I feel like I need to like discover a few more people sex. If you have any people that you think I would enjoy on YouTube, let me know in the comments below look at a shiny. That looks. I don't know why, but these wave is like create such a shiny, looking piece of hair and it actually stays like that. Okay, so that is one little piece of hair done, so I'm just gon na work. My way around, don't think just give this a spritz of hairspray all the way down. I find that this really helps because I'm obviously trying to join my hair here, which is short up with the extensions but the little spritz of hairspray kind of key. I love that I'm doing this hairstyle, while it's literally winter here in Australia. I just like. I refuse to give in to winter I'm sitting here like lava and fake tan, with shell necklace on doing a mermaid hair tutorial does not equipped for cold weather. Luckily, here in Sydney, it doesn't really get too cold. It'S like 22 degrees. It'S like light jacket, kind of weather, but nothing nothing crazy, even like I don't even really know how to dress for winter. You know like I just like I like, linen and denim shorts and bikinis, and that kind of thing like those my dresses and sandals. So I'm just gon na go out. Rockin mermaid hair, pretend that's pretend it's the beach, so I think it's a good idea to figure out how long these take or how kind of crimped you want them to be. If you hold them this much longer, the wave will be a lot more dramatic, but if you just hold them there quite quickly, it'll just give it a little bit of a kink. Let me know what you guys prefer. Are you a winter person or a summer person? Is you because you clicked on this link that you're all summer people because you're like trying to do mermaid, hair? Okay? So that's the first little layer down the bottom down there? Yes, I'm wearing pajama pants! So here's why it's a little bit tricky, because I'm coming to a little section where my hair doesn't want to be inside the waver. So I have to kind of hold it in place and slide this down. So that might waiver grips all of the hair and so the first time I did this, I wasn't really sure how much of a gap to leave when you slide it down. That was like the trickiest thing for me, because I I was putting it down much further than the previous crimp thinking that they'll just be. You know a sort of natural little wave that occurs in between them, but actually the best way to go is see how here that one's being curled in a downwards direction, just slide it to down. So you go one two and back on that jump. That'S when you crimp again so that you're basically meeting the high from there to the high to there so make sense. So the hairspray i'm using is just Schwarzkopf with a strong styling hairspray. You can probably use one. That'S a bit of a softer hold as well, because you don't want it to be like crunchy or anything, but this is turning out exactly how I want it see how like nice and shiny and they're just cooling down like that now, this waiver is actually not My ideal waiver, I think there are some that have slightly bigger barrels to create slightly bigger waves. This is the only one that I could find here in the stores, so I'll leave some online links below for you guys for some good waivers now. The only other tip I have is to not really pull this down, because you obviously don't want a straight in the little waves ahead, so just make sure that you're giving these ones above a little bit of room to just chill it cool down. So if you can see when I'm sort of towards the roots, I don't go all the way to the roots, because I don't want to burn my face off. But what I do want to do is kind of face it out away from my face, and it just means that they start to have a little bit of volume there without me having to back home or anything like that, so see how they like that. Just sort of the first little wave is already popping out when you start to do that, all the way up the head. It gives you really nice natural, well natural-looking volume. You guys in the comments are always talking about like arm exercises, because my pop so much when I do this and it's just literally doing me there dude oops. I think it was the top of my head. I don't hold the ones by the roots as long cuz. I don't it to be super super bumpy up here, so I leave them a little bit less and then I kind of let the center towards the ends be the most prominent waves. Okay. So when I start to get towards the top layers, or rather than like pulling the whole thing out and making it really messy, I basically just pull out one little section at a time, because these are a little bit more tricky. So I'm gon na pull that out and clip all of this back, so it doesn't get in my way and now, with these little envies is here because they are obviously shorter than my extensions down the bottom. Here you can leave the little into the end out and just let that look like it's like dipped into the water type thing. But up here you need to clamp it so that it sort of blends with the rest of your hair. So you need to make sure that you go all the way to the bottom. You get these little duties in there right on the top. Here I'm going for a bit of a center part, so I'm just gon na finish off these little pieces, you're not gon na pop any your hairspray there cuz. I don't want them to look grandma like country or anything like that. So I'm just gon na go about a half an inch away from my heart and do a fairly quick one. So now you can basically just run your fingers through your hair, like this just to pull the little waves apart. So you don't have like four little plates, where it's very clear that you've just put like a crimper on there and then because I don't want to show a poofy. I'M gon na go back in with a little bit of the frizzies serum and just in a few key places where it's like the most ready. I guess just put that through there again, and it just adds a little bit of that texture and shine. This hairstyle is most ideal, if you don't have any sort of bangs like if you've got like long pieces at the front there and it just all blends together, but I had the great idea recently to cut some bangs. So these are not my favorite little pieces. So I'm kind of just strategically trying to hide them and just blend them into the rest of the hair and there you go Mamet Kells super easy right. I'M just gon na grab these side pieces here and kind of clip them with a bobby pin back a bit like that. So let me know what you guys think. I hope this was somewhat helpful.
