How To Get Beachy Hair

July 14, 2014 By TheBeautySection 21 Comments

How To Get Beachy Hair

Happy Monday!!

You know when you are at the beach with your toes in the sand and the sun on your skin and your beachy hair blowing in the wind and it just looks absolutely perfect?!?!… Yea me neither. I don’t know about you but just because I’m around salt water doesn’t mean my hair is going to look good unless I use some type of product in it to make it that way. Well fear not because today I’m going to show you how you could  create your own beachy waves, even at home all year round.

How To Get Beachy Hair

How To Get Beachy Hair

These are some of my favorite Beach Sprays. They are all great on their own, but I like to mix them together too for that extra oomph. From left to right Not Your Mother’s Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray, Lush’s Sea Salt Spray,  and Marc Anthony Dream Waves Beach Spray.

Here are my Beachy Waves, I used the Not Your Mother’s Beach Babe Spray for this. Sorry about the glare but if you are a glasses wearer you know the struggle is real! :)

 

Steps:

1. I always wash my hair with my normal shampoo and conditioner, if you don’t need to wash yours, wet it until it is damp.

2. While in the shower, after I am done cleansing and conditioning I comb my hair out with a wide tooth comb. Found at any drugstore.

3. When I  get out of the shower I try to get some of the moisture out with my towel and I also scrunch my hair with the towel already making it have a wave to it.

4. Then I spray my favorite Beach Texturizing Spray or mix a few of them together. Once I have fully coated my damp hair I scrunch my hair all around. If you don’t know how to scrunch your hair all you do is take one hand and grab the bottom of a section of hair and push that hair up until it meets your scalp.

5. You can also take strands of hair and twist it back and when it dries those will be more defined curls.

6. If you are in a time crunch you can dry your hair with a defuser but, if you do have more time let it air dry if you are indoors and it will prevent your waves from being frizzy.

7. Once your hair is dry you can spray some extra beach spray if it needs it or just finish it off with some hairspray.

*Tip* If you have super straight hair that doesn’t curl you can still create this same look by again spraying your hair with the beach hair spray but instead of just letting it air dry, section off your hair into 4 equal parts. 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom. Create a small bun out of each section and secure it with a bobby pin or hair tie (you should have 4 buns on your head when you are done). Sleep with it this way all night and in the morning take it all down and you should have beachy waves. If it isn’t exactly what you want spray some more beach spray in your hair and scrunch.

That is all it takes to get your own beachy hair at home. I love doing this a lot in the summer because it’s super easy and takes no time. While I’m letting my hair dry I’m doing my makeup and getting dressed for the day. Remember this isn’t going to be a perfectly flawless hairstyle, it is definitely a bit more messy and out of place.

 

What is your go-to summer hairstyle?

    Great review! I have really thick hair so usually products like these make my hair frizzy, but I would love to see how these brands work. Have you ever tried making your own sea salt spray? I did once and it worked pretty well and was super cheap!

    Great tips! I tried my friend’s beach babe spray the other day, but felt like I wasn’t using it right! I need to try it again!

      Yea try it again and it may work better! With this kind of stuff less is more. There have been many times where I think I need a lot more than I actually do and it just ends up making your hair crunchy and it’s weighed down, which is not a good combo. Good luck next time you try it! :)

    i have naturally curly hair and the beach always does a number on it…. i’ve learned to just braid it, stuff it in a cute hat or something to minimize the damage! But I’ve thought of trying the beach sprays to see how my curls react! =)

      Yea you should try it! I have naturally curly/wavy hair and it works well on mine. But as you know curls can sometimes have a mind of their own and one day they look great and another day they look terrible. So it’s worth a shot! :)

      Yea it’s a really good one, it keeps your hair pretty soft and touchable so you can rock beachy waves on second day hair too! :)
