How To: Beachy Waves
June 2nd, 2009
A few weeks ago, I posted this make-up tutorial and received follow-up requests for a lesson on how to create loose waves. I’ve heard about a million different ways to curl your hair, but this five-step process has proven to work the best.
Awesome. Beautiful. Yes. Love it.
I’d recommend buying a wand curling iron and just using that. Way easier than this. AND works like a charm.
Sorry – forgot to include link in my post (last one) – what a wand curling iron does:

Thanks for the tutorial! Loved the way my hair turned out
Fantastic! Very beautiful curls!
Omg! great tutorial!
where did you get your curling iron?
Thank you!
Great tutorial! Your hair looks beautiful!
Wow… this looks amazing… I NEED to try this because every time I attempt to curl my hair it ends up looking way over-done and ringlet-y.
I will definitely be trying this!

Wish I had a big iron, I have one on the slimmer ones and can’t make these voluptuous curls
Great advice! I love your tutorial. Your hair looks beautiful! I hope it will work with my messy hair

Cute and natural looking! but, fotunately and unfortunately my hair is naturally curly!

Worked very well! first time I’ve ever been able to master the “wrap-around” technique I’ve heard about so often!
I tried, it worked perfectly
i love your how tos and recipes and finally i found a place where recipes and how to are easy, real and cool. youre awesome
¡Fabuloso! Love the 1-2-3 approach to get my stick straight hair looking naturally wavy! ¡Gracias!
OMG, i like every your hair style. But it is not possible to do it by myself
I would love to see more healthy recipes, teenager need to have more fruits and vegetables included in their diet.
Ah, SERIOUSLY?! I can never get my hair to look that perfect. This model really has perfect highlights for curls too. My hair is just plain brown and never gets as much body. I always end up frying the ends of my hair too without trying. Better keep practicing.
I love It! I never knew the secret to this effortlessly gorgeous look!
Tried this today– got SO many compliments! I’ve never had such perfect waves. Thanks!
PS- love the site!
Any other good recommendations for a curling iron? Or where to find the curling iron you recommended? I called the local beauty supply place and then only carry “Hot Shot Tools”? Which is apparently made by the same company?
And/Or what type of “plating” to get? gold? titanium?
Sorry.. I’m new to the whole curling-my-hair-thing!
This is great! I just tried it and my waves look awesome! It’s so simple and so cute! Thank you
OMG thx, for that tutorial , I do it, and it’s perfect!! you are the best.
Gorgeous! I have a list of things I have to try now!

You make it look so easy! Curling irons definitely work best without the clamp. I love my curling wand! (P.S. my friend actually took off the clamp on hers, and its much easier to use!)
delightful! will be trying this out tomorrow and posting pictures of my success. thank you!
I have 7 kids, some are old and some are young. One of my daughters is in fifth grade, and she is graduating. I have this wand I bought a long time ago, but it didn’t work on her hair very well. My oldest daughter visited us to see her graduate, and I told her to bring a good curling iron. She brought a Hot Tools and I didn’t think it would work well, but she curled it this way and it looked beautiful in a side pig tail. And if you have any kids, it is very cute if you curl the bangs just slightly and make the rest big and wavy! CUTE! Thanks so much for this wonderful idea!
I have NEVER been able to figure out how people do this to their hair! I didn’t realize it was so easy! I tried it out and it actually looked pretty good! Thank you so much for the tutorial:)
Hooray! I love this, I am forever striving for those great beach waves. Thanks for the great how to, I just linked it to my blog!
I followed this very simple tutorial and I am stunned at how amazing my hair looked!!!
Thank you!!!!
