How to Master Beach Waves

with Salon 74 lxxiv

We’re going to teach you best practices you need to know to master beach waves.

Part your hair as desired, side or middle. With a HOT 1 inch-1 1/4 inch curcling iron, take a one inch selection of hair on one side of the part.

With the iron clamp in the up position (clamp to top), place one inch section of hair in the iron, approximately one inch from scalp.

Curl hair leaving approximately one inch at ends out of the curling iron (don’t curl it)

Release curl and DON’T touch it! Next FLIP curling iron in the opposite (clamp facing down or back) direction for next section. Repeat the curl, leaving a one inch section out of the curling iron (again don’t curl the bottom)

For the third section flip the curling iron back it’s original position (clamp facing upwards) and begin to curl again. Don’t touch the curls and leave a one inch section of hair at the bottom.

Repeat this process of alternating the direction of the curls around entire head.

If a curl is too tight, simply & gently pull on the end. Don’t touch the curls yet.

Once the all the hair is curled, go underneath the curls and shake at roots.

Gently with your fingers, shake out the curls at the roots from the top.

Spray your curls.

A little more light tussling, to make the curls just the way you want.

Comb down the fly aways.
