raise your hand if messy, natural waves make your heart pitter patter. . . yeah, me too. it's a look we spy over and over again on runways {'ello Cynthia Steffe + Thakoon s/s 2011}, supermodels {hey giselle + heidi}, celebrities {bonjourkate hudson + olivia palermo + SJP + jessica alba}. just to name a few.
. . . of course we can't forget our newest oscar winning royalty, miss. natalie portman, who also loves a good glam wave:
remember this post when i promised to share the holy grail of bed head waves with you? well, dear friends, today is that day {if you can bear my 5 minute tutorial}!
the mentioned prep tools you'll always catch me using:
thickening spray, buy here // sea salt texturizing spray, buy here
are you excited to give it a shot? the key is a messy // natural bend so don't be too hard on yourself to make it perfect!
yours truly-
ps: click here for an example of the said "doo-dad" from the video, aka clipless curling iron.
I absolutely love curling my hair, and I've been trying to figure out a way to get waves instead of just tight curls! I'll have to try this out and post pictures if it works on my short hair. :p
My hair stylist (fabulous Jimmy) taught me this and I love it!! Wanna know a little trick? If you don't wanna spend the $$ on the "doo-dad" you can just use a phillips head screw driver (most boys have one and each girl SHOULD) and remove the clamp. I did it to mine and just saved the pieces in a pastic baggy in case I want to put it back on. It will give your thumb a little break from holding the clamp open :)
I'm definitely trying this. My hair doesn't exactly qualify as a bob, now that I'm growing it out, but I think it will be cute on my short-ish hair. I'll be sure to let you see the results.
You are adorable and I've never known how to get those sexy, cute beach waves and now I do-- just in time for Spring.
