Chic Ponytail with Voluminous Waves

@hairbytashalouisec

Add a chic ponytail with voluminous waves to make finer hair appear fuller with a stunning updo. Adding waves to your ponytail and a little gentle back-combing instantly bulks up the hair and makes it appear fuller. Try a little back-combing underneath the crown and let the hair smooth over the top for extra oomph.

Shoulder Length Dirty Blonde Waves

@locksbythalia

“This is my idea of a California blonde,” says stylist Thalia Ramirez of Santa Ana, CA. “I created these messy waves with a balayage technique in order to give her a seamless blend and a “rooty” look so she doesn’t have to get this touched up every month.”

Ramirez loves the contrast between the dark and blonde, giving it the perfect amount of dimension, and the bombshell beach waves just show it off perfectly.

There is some maintenance to this dirty blonde color. Ramirez recommends professional-grade products. “Purple shampoo is a must to hold on to that blonde intensity and keep out brassy tones. I recommend Redken Color Extend Blonde. For the beach wave style, I use a 1 1/2″ curling iron and I finish it up by breaking up the curls with Bumble and Bumble Brilliantine and spray it with some Kenra professional platinum dry texture spray,” she adds.

No Heat Waves

@moxie.and.muse

These no heat waves were created by stylist Melissa Scoffield of Long Jetty, NSW. “To enhance the natural beauty of soft waves, encourage their natural movement,” says Scoffield.

“To encourage these natural elements, I took some length away and used a slicing technique to shatter the line – not layering. This allows the weight to be lifted from the internal section, encouraging the natural movement and creating soft, textured waves,” she explains.

This is such a versatile look and can be recreated at any length, ideally for those with wave or movement. These textured beach waves are the perfect synergy to live a free-spirited, low maintenance lifestyle by the sea.

Wavy Short Bob

@hairandbeautybyjen

This wavy short bob has a “barely there” texture. “These bombshell beachy waves are messy and unrefined,” says stylist and salon owner Jen Lindley of Lake Placid, FL.

“The cutest thing about this look is the volume I get when I simply flip it to one side with a heavy part and then pull the bangs forward to frame my face,” says Lindley.

She adds, “If you are considering this look, it’s best if you have medium to thick hair that your stylist can cut to a non-angled bob and then texturize a lot.”

For styling, she recommends Puff Me volumizing powder by Design.Me that conveniently comes in a pump to spray at the roots! Then use Biolage Texturizing Styling Spray to give your hair the perfect amount of separation for this style!

Ash Blonde Lob with Waves

@jess_hair_kelowna

This ash blonde lob with waves was created by senior stylist Jessica Chave of Kelowna, BC. “Loose waves accentuate the long textured layers which makes it the perfect style for this haircut. The great thing about it is that ladies can wear this wavy layered hairstyle on formal events, such as a wedding or even a prom,” explains Chave.

She also insists you invest in a good purple shampoo!” This will be a lifesaver and keep your blonde from becoming brassy. I personally love Fanola No Yellow shampoo. To get your hair blonde enough to show ash tones usually means bleach, so a deep conditioner with protein to help rebuild protein bonds once or twice a week is a must. Expect to rebook for about 6-8 weeks for a root touch-up or toner (or both) to maintain this color.”

Beachy Bob

@malbake

This beachy bob was created by owner and stylist Mallory Baker of Tulsa, OK.

Baker feels this cut can go for any hair density and is flattering on most face shapes. To keep it fresh, visit the salon every 3-4 months.

If you have medium-length thin fine hair, ask your stylist to create extra weight at the ends by cutting the perimeter at graduation, and keeping the layers minimal. Ask for the angle that creates weight, not removes it.

“It’s very easy to round brush for extra volume. Straighten for sleekness or wave for a lived-in look that will last several days,” she states.

“We styled these effortless waves with Kevin.Murphy Body Builder for body and the illusion of more density, and Anti-Gravity for volume, grip, and heat protection. After curling, we finished with Bedroom Hair for some light messy texture,” she explains.
