Wavy hair can add an effortless, beachy vibe to your look. While most people rely on curling irons to achieve those bouncy waves, did you know that you can also create stunning waves using a straightening iron? In this guide, we’ll show you how to achieve gorgeous wavy hair with just a few simple steps.

Step 1: Prepare Your Hair

  • Start by washing your hair and applying a heat protectant spray to prevent damage from the straightening iron.
  • If you have thin or fine hair, add some volumizing mousse to give your waves more body.
  • For added texture and hold, apply a small amount of texturizing spray or sea salt spray to your hair.

Step 2: Section Your Hair

To ensure even waves throughout your hair, divide it into sections. The number of sections will depend on the thickness of your hair.

  • For thin hair, two sections should be enough: one on top and one at the bottom.
  • If you have thick hair, you may need to create more sections to ensure each strand gets enough heat.

Step 3: Start Creating Waves

Now it’s time to start creating those luscious waves!

  • Take a small section of hair (about an inch wide) from the first section and clamp it between the plates of your straightening iron, starting from the roots.
  • Twist the straightening iron away from your face, creating a spiral motion as you glide it down the section of hair.
  • Repeat this twisting motion for the entire section, making sure to maintain a steady grip on the straightening iron.
  • Continue this process for all the sections of your hair.

Step 4: Set Your Waves

Once you’ve finished creating waves on all sections of your hair, it’s time to set them.

  • Allow your hair to cool down for a few minutes to set the waves.
  • Gently tousle your waves with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to give them a more natural look.
  • If desired, you can apply a small amount of texturizing spray or hairspray to hold the waves in place.

Step 5: Final Touches

To complete the wavy hair look, consider adding some finishing touches.

  • Apply a few drops of hair oil to add shine and tame any frizz.
  • If you’re going for a more bohemian vibe, try inserting small hair accessories or braiding a section of your hair.
  • Remember to always protect your waves overnight by loosely tying your hair up or using a silk/satin pillowcase to prevent them from getting squished.

With these simple steps, you can easily achieve beautiful, wavy hair using a straightening iron. Experiment with different twisting techniques, angles, and hair products to find the perfect wave pattern that suits your style. So, go ahead and rock those beachy waves all year round!
