Bonjour Dah-Ling!
Nothing says vacay better than beachy waves. Salty air and sun-kissed vibes by day and night are so our summer style.
Even if you’ve not spent the day frolicking in the surf, you can still achieve that sea-sprayed tousled look with a little bit of hair know-how. Those beguiling carefree beach waves look so effortless and are eternally one of the hottest seasonal hair trends. The great news is, even if you don’t have your own stylist on speed-dial, this look can easily be achieved whether you have a bob, a lob, a midi or longer length tresses.
It’s all about looking tastefully disheveled rather than overly groomed.
No matter what hair type you’ve been blessed with (because all hair is a blessing my dah-lings even the most rebellious kind!) with just a few strategic adjustments and the right N4 styling products, you’ll be rocking envy-inducing beachy waves all summer long. Summer loving certainly had us a blast!
The ultimate beachy waves are such an easy style to manage. You can even achieve them in your sleep cheries!
How to Create Easy Overnight Beachy Waves
What you’ll need:
N4 Styling Foam
N4 Sugar Texturizing Spray
N4 Non Aerosol Hair Spray
Hair ties and bobby pins
How to re-create the look:
1. Simply wash and towel dry your hair preferably using Number 4 Hydrating Shampoo followed by our Reconstructing Masque to lock in plenty of manageable moisture.
2. Take Number 4 Styling Foam and liberally apply all the way through your mid-lengths and through to the ends, simply using your fingers to massage and work the product through the hair.
3. Separate your towel dried hair into sections, braid and secure with a tie or some bobby pins. The more tousled and numerous you want those tresses to be, the more braids you need to tie. For lovely large loose waves, just two braids should do it.
4. Grab some beauty sleep, dreaming about how fabulous you’re going to look in that new two-piece, a cocktail in one hand and your bae in the other.
5. Wake up sleepy head! It’s time to release the brands and unravel those cascading curls.
6. Shake out the waves, add a spritz of Number 4 Sugar Texturizing Spray through the ends and if necessary, finish off and secure in place with Number 4 Non Aerosol Hair Spray.
How to Create Glamorous Beach Waves
What you’ll need:
N4 Sugar Texturizing Spray
N4 Non-Aerosol Hair Spray
Curling Wand
How to re-create the look:
1. For this glam evening look, wash and condition first with any combination of Number 4 carefully curated formulations, designed to impart moisture and brilliant shine, lavishing your hair without stripping it of any essential oils.
2. Towel dry your hair then flip your head over and very generously spritz N4 Sugar Texturizing Spray all over your ends, being careful to avoid your roots.
3. For a looser look, allow your hair to dry naturally, otherwise for a more voluminous and high octane show-stopping style, hit the blow drier and roughly dry with your fingertips.
4. Turn on your curling wand or styling tong and begin to section the hair. Wrap around the tong for around 5 seconds and section hair according to how loose or tight you prefer those waves to be.
5. For a more retro glam look, keep the waves tight and chic. If you prefer the relaxed Boho Beach vibe, tousle and tease out those curls with your fingers.
6. As before, give that gorgeous head of yours a delicate shake, add some Number 4 Non Aerosol Hair Spray and baby, you are ready to shake, rattle and roll!
Hero Product
Whether you prefer easy overnight waves or a glamorous beachy head of curls, the MUST HAVE product you need in your hair care arsenal is N4 Sugar Texturizing Spray. There’s nothing (un) savory about our texturizing spray. It’s sugary, not salty for a start and leaves hair looking deliciously undone.
This is summer loving that’s happened fast but boy oh boy, is it meant to last!
