hair challenge day 3: how to do loose waves

How to get those loose beachy waves:




Wa-la! Beach waves.

 Some more helpful hints:

* use a 1inch curling iron if your hair is shoulder length or shorter,
use a 1 1/2-2inch iron if your hair is longer.
This way you maintain a LOOSE wave
and not the Shirley Temple ringlets.

* if your hair is curl resistant spray the sections
with a spritz hairspray before you curl them.
Spritz hairsprays generally have more hold,
or memory, and also they dampen the hair
allowing the cuticle's memory to reset temporarily.

* after you release the hair from the curling iron
pull down on the ends to keep the curl loose.

* if your hair is thick then pull the hair up around the
crown of your head and curl the bottom part first.
Then curl the top.
