I have been loving the trendy beach wave look! I also feel like I only ever curl my hair the same way, and with summer just around the corner, I was itching for a change that was more carefree looking! At first, I bought a Remington wand from Target that claimed to create waves, but it did not achieve a look even close to what I wanted (my hair just looked kinked or as if I had been electrocuted!), so I returned it and continued to shop around. I watched so many YouTube videos that I ended up more unsure of what to buy. I decided to go to Ulta because I had a 20% off coupon and found a
Hot Tools Curling Bubble wand that also claimed on its box that it was for beach waves, and I love Hot Tools' line of hair tools, so I bought it knowing I was getting a quality product, but I could always return it if it wasn't exactly what I wanted. I immediately went home and tried it out and turns out, I loved it! I also bought some
Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray to help make my hair more messy and to aid in separating the waves better. I will be honest, the words 'sea salt' weren't appealing to me, as I could only think of gargling salt water to get rid of a sore throat and how nasty that smelled and tasted. This spray is the complete opposite and has sort of a coconut smell and is something I want my hair to smell like everyday! I'm glad I couldn't have been more wrong! The first day I used the bubble wand I left a good inch or more of my hair at the bottom straight but today I tried to get the ends more today. I like it both ways and appreciate the options!
Here are my beach waves from the first day:
And from today:
I hope this helps you get those highly sought-after beach waves! As always, thanks for reading! :)
