Here are five ways to channel the Brazilian beauty this summer with beachy waves.
Use a volumizing product to ensure that the waves have lasting power throughout the day or night. Stylist Janine Jarman loves this look because it works on all hair types and flatters the face. “I would wrap dry hair with a volumizing product, like Sebastian Volupt Spray,” before curling, explains Jarman.
Stylist Angelo David says Bündchen’s beachy waves are ideal for women with hair past the shoulders who may be tired of always going sleek and straight. David says the easiest and quickest way to get the look is with a curling iron. “Start with a heat protectant, like my Long and Stronger Detangler, before stylizing to minimize damage from heating tools,” says Angelo. “Using a two inch barrel curling iron, create soft curls to each section of hair. Break the curls by running your fingers through your hair. Finish the look with a medium hold hairspray.”
“Apply a volumizing product and blow dry your hair, using your fingers to separate,” says Stylist Julia Papworth. “Feel free to flip your head over to dry. When dry, starting from the bottom up, take medium sized sections of hair, lightly mist with hairspray and then wrap them around a medium sized curling iron. Make sure to leave the ends of the hair uncurled as this really adds to the style.”
Don’t feel like using heat as the temperature begins to rise? No problem. Stylist Danny Jelaca says you can get beachy waves overnight. “On damp hair, spritz with a hair oil, Leonor Greyl Huile Secret de Beautè,” explains Jelaca. “Run fingers through your hair and separate into four sections. Then, loosely twist hair into four buns. Sleep and in the morning let them down. You’ll wake up with perfect beach waves.”
For those with fine hair, Kusero advises to first use a hair product on towel-dried hair that can add fullness, like Prive Root Amplifier. “Tousle dry hair upside down using high heat on a low speed to avoid frizz,” says Kusero. “Once hair is nearly dry, add a fingertip of texturizing clay, such as Prive Extended Texture Clay. Twist your hair in random sections to separate and define. Allow hair to air dry and then shake it out.”
