Choose your desired waver to achieve your beach wave vibe.

step 2. prep and protect

It’s important to prep and prime the hair before going straight in with your hair tool. Brush through dry hair and spray the shield anti humidity spray. This lightweight, invisible heat protecting and style extending spray protects the hair from heat styling up to 450° f/ 230°c and shields hair against frizz and humidity for up to 24 hours.

step 3. choose your heat setting

Before styling, make sure you choose your desired heat setting that suits your hair.

PSA: Thicker hair may need a higher heat setting to get those long-lasting waves.

step 4. create the perfect beachy waves

Divide your hair into manageable sections, depending on the thickness of your hair, and secure with a clip. Then, clamp 2”-4” sections of hair and hold for 5 seconds. Move the waver tool down your strands and repeat. Repeat for all sections of hair.

step 5. spray and set

Once you’ve waved your hair, complete the look with a finishing spray to suit you. To enhance the texture of your hair, we recommend un.done matte and texture spray. This dry finishing spray creates instant volume and texture, resulting in perfectly-imperfect tousled waves.

PSA: If you’re wanting long-lasting waves, opt for the fluxus touchable hairspray. This flexible working hairspray sets styles for stay-all-day that you’ll still be able to run your fingers through.
