Messy Beachy Waves

How to get that messy beach hair look.

Super fast ~ Super easy

Things you'll need....

1...Hair Spray

2...A big barrel curling iron

3...Finishing Cream.....or for super hold any kind of hair wax product

4...hair & your hands ha ha

Remember this look is not about perfect "Shirley Temple" ringlets....it's about messy, frolicked on the beach all day surfer girl hair!!

First on either air-dried or blow-dried hair spray hairspray allover to add volume and to get hair ready to hold curls....if you need extra volume for limp hair simply add some baby powder to your roots with your fingertips...
2nd...clip back half of your hair for easier access to bottom section...
3rd...ha ha ha get your trusty iron nice and hot
4th...holding curling iron up-right (and don't use the clip) wrap small and big sections around barrel(just alternating between sizes)....the trick is to start curling iron about 3 to 4 inches down from root and don't worry too much about getting the tip all the way to the end either (remember messy ha ha)
work around your head changing from small sections to big section....wrapping some forward around curling iron barrel and some going backward around barrel. once you finish bottom section then let hair loose and finish top section.
5th...once you get finished with all "curls" rub either finishing cream (i love frizz-ease) or hair wax between hands and apply to each curls kind of twisting as you go...

6th...once you are finished "finishing" each curl with product then kinda loosten and separate curls by fluffing up with your hands

YEP i've been at the beach ALLLL day ha ha ha
(with this hair style I like to twist my bangs to the side and hold back with bobby pins for that cool hippy girl effect)

much love & more to come,
Jenny :)
