Remember when I posted pictures of my middle part and then you asked for a video on how to do beach waves? Then remember how I was all, "sure thing sweet cheeks! anything you want you get!"? And then remember how I didn't do my hair for like a month? Unless you consider a messy excuse for a top knot a hair-do.
Well soul sisters, I'm here with a hair how-to. You can thank my BFF for turning the dirty thirty, forcing me to clean my act up and look presentable for an evening out. My husband thanks her as well.
I have two methods for creating beach waves, one involves using the flat iron {yes FLAT iron} and the other requires a 1 inch curling iron. For this how-to we'll start with the flat iron method just because I think it holds the curl longer {and it was humid when I did this} and I got more questions like "OMG you use a FLAT iron? How in the world?!" So I'm taking the kill two birds with one stone approach on this video.
Disclaimer: I have a cold sore, still. Thank you NC sun. I got a great tan, yes, but the cold sore was a little unnecessary.
Also I don't know how to do fancy things like make this fast-forward 6.5 minutes so if you want to jump to about 7.5 minutes to see the results you are welcome to. Sorry for the rambling.
I ended up not needing to touch up the curls/waves after all. Just a spritz of the hair spray and good to go!
Like I said, let me know if you try this out. If you love or hate it! If you have a better suggestion.
p.s. see that adorable peace tee? Well they're available to order again! Leave me a comment with your size {make sure you're email is included} and I'll get you on the list for round 3! Details are the same as before, click here for more info.

ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to get the peace tee. A small I believe (you said that's what you have as a 4-6) and my email is adayinthelifesonya@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteCute Lady!!! I suck at doing the back!
ReplyDeleteI may have to try this! But I have very fine, very straight hair so "beach waves" may turn into girlfriend-needs-to-brush-her-hair in less than 2 hours!
ReplyDeleteSeeing how beautiful and easy this is I want to continue to grow out my hair!!! and buy a new flat iron
