How to Get Beachy Waves
Now that it's spring time, we love rocking super beachy locks. Easy, textured and effortless, beachy waves are our go-to look of the season. We especially love the style as the messier your tresses, the better. So, let's get straight to it and show you exactly how to get beachy waves!
The key to beachy, mermaid waves is lots of length, volume and texture. Our favourite way to achieve instant length and thickness is using ZALA clip in hair extensions! For the best effect, a full 9 piece set in 20 or 24 inches will give you the perfect mermaid hair before styling.
HOW TO GET BEACHY WAVES
- Once you've applied your ZALA's and have the ideal length & thickness, it's time to start curling! Our absolute favourite tool for styling beachy waves is the ZALA Cosmo Wand. It's a 5 in 1 curling wand so that you have every look covered! Which is particularly good for beachy waves as varied sized curls are perfect for achieving texture. Our favourite barrel for creating beachy waves is the 32mm spiral attachment.
- For beachy curls, it's important to make sure you're taking 1-2 inch wide sections, varying the size of each curl as you go. Make sure you stick between 1-2 inches though, as any wider you won't get that beachy effect.
- Once you've curled your first piece, take your next section and wrap around the wand in the opposite direction. Keep alternating direction with each curl and repeat until all your hair is styled!
- After all the hair has been curled and is left to cool, finger comb through your locks and use your hands to scrunch up the curls for added texture.
And there you have it! How to get beachy waves. This should last you a couple days and will still look just as beachy as the curls drop! Now you know how to get beachy waves to wear through spring. In need of the perfect mermaid hair for spring? Shop the full ZALA range HERE.
