Beach waves are one of the most in-demand hairstyles right now. They are trendier than ever and are seen everywhere, from catwalks to Instagram feeds. It is the hairstyle that manages to be both relaxed and luxurious at the same time, and which is also one of the most durable and easy-to-style looks . With Your Wave Wand you can quickly create natural waves that last all day and feel just as stylish on the beach as in everyday life.

Prepare your hair for perfect waves

Preparation is always key. If your hair isn't properly prepped, your waves can become uneven or frizzy.

  • Brush through your hair with Your Hair Brush to smooth the cuticle and distribute the natural oils.
  • Always apply heat protection . It protects against both the heat from the curling iron and the sun's UV rays.
  • Avoid using heavy hair care products before styling. Products like oils, creamy leave-ins, or greasy conditioners can weigh down your hair and make it harder to form waves. Instead, opt for a moisturizing hair care product or a volumizing product.
  • Spray lightly with texturizing spray before styling. This will give your hair more hold and make the waves more defined.

Step by step with a scale

Here's how:

  • Section your hair with Your Sectioning Clips . Smaller sections will make the waves smoother and more durable. Make sure the hair is evenly spread around the barrel for an even result.
  • Hold the curling iron vertically as you work. This will give a softer shape, avoid sharp nicks and create extra volume from the roots.
  • Place the hair in the iron and leave it for 6–7 seconds. Always use a heat protectant to protect the cuticle.
  • Continue until all of your hair is wavy. Let the waves cool before touching them. When your hair is cold, it will hold its shape better.
  • Gently comb through the lengths with Your Comb , a wide-toothed comb. This separates the waves and gives a more natural look .

Common mistakes that cause waves to fail

  • Skipping heat protection . This damages the cuticle layer and frizz comes right away.
  • To brush out the waves before they cool down. Always wait until the hair is cool.
  • Using too heavy products before styling. It makes the hair flat and reduces its durability.
  • The hair is not evenly spread around the cylinder.
  • Taking too large or too thin sections of hair when styling.
  • To angle the wave iron horizontally so that notches are created in the waves.

How to make heat styling last longer

Studies show that heat styling lasts better when the hair's moisture balance is right . If your hair is too dry, it will become frizzy, and if it's too heavy, it will quickly return to its natural shape. That's why the combination of a light moisturizing serum, heat protection, and a texturizing spray is the best foundation. Also, when you let your hair cool completely before touching it, the bonds in the hair shaft stabilize, making the waves last much longer.
