How I Get Beach Waves - 2 ways

Hey!

So I thought I would do a post on how I get messy, beach waves. I have my hair like this a lot and I think it looks nice especially in the summer and on holiday. My hair is normally not straight but not curly..its kind of wavy but with straight bits if that make's sense? 

I Always use Tresemme Texture Style and Superdrug's own Salt Spray. They are both pretty cheap and I love them especially the Salt Spray. If i'm on holiday most of the time I just use the Salt Spray as my hair always seems to go thicker and wavier for some reason? Normally I wash my hair, towel dry it off and spray some of the Tresemme Texture Style and just sort of scrunch my hair. Most of the time I then leave it to dry or dry it off with a hairdryer (upside down for more volume!) Then when my hair is dry I do the same with the Salt Spray, spray it in and scrunch my hair. It's great because some products like this I have used have made my hair greasy or sticky but these two don't.

 This is the effect the products give to my hair, as you can see its messy-wavy. 

I also have another way of getting messy waves. I wash my hair and then after towel drying it a little bit I put it into two plaits while its still quite wet. I sleep in the plaits and then when I wake up and its dry I spray a bit of the Superdrug Salt Spray in and it gives it this effect...

What products do you use to get 'Beach Waves'?

Babyliss Heated Rollers

These are my new fave thing!! I was always borrowing my mums heated rollers so my sister bought me these for my birthday and they are sooo good! I have kind of wavy hair but even though its quite thick its really flat if that makes sense? I back comb it but because its so soft it drops after like 10 minutes! So most of the time i've been using these! There really easy to put in and they heat up really quick. I usually leave them for about 20 minuites though so there quite hot and so the curl will last longer. 

They come with black grips and these metal clips but i prefer the black grips as they keep better hold of the roller in my hair.

Sometimes I do all my hair but at the minute Ive been leaving a section round the bottom and then curling the bottom section with straighteners just so theres a bit of a variety of curls. 

When I have applied them I spray a bit of hairspray on them and then leave them for about half an hour - 45 minutes, but it depends on how curly you want them really.

When I take them out im left with a really bouncy curl! and my hair looks really thick and voluminous! I always put a lot of hairspray on though afterwards so the curls stay in all night

 I love how If im going out I don't really feel like its an effort to do my hair as i just put these in and do my make up while there in and then take them out and I'm ready to go!

August Favourites x

Hello!
So here are my monthly favourites for August :)

1. Superdrugs own brand Salt Spray

I love this stuff! I have wavy hair, so I just spray this in my hair when its dry and it gives it that 'beachy look' It came in really handy on holiday as I can never be bothered blow drying my hair because its too hot. I just usually blast my hair with the hair dryer and then spray this in and scrunch it up a bit

2. Aussie Curl Definition & Soft Feel Serum

I bought this just before my holiday and I used it every night while i was there. You can use it on wet or dry hair but I just used it when my hair was damp. Again I just scrunched it through my hair to define the waves.

3. Nars Orgasm Blush

I love this colour especially for summer as it has a shimmer to it. This was another product i used (almost) every day on holiday!

4. Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner

This is the best eyeliner I have ever used. It does not come off! It's actually pretty hard to get off at night when your taking your make up off haha. I have quite sensitive eyes aswell and quite a few eyeliners make my eyes water loads but this one doesn't bother them so I love it. Oh and also it lasts ages! I got this one last July and it still hasn't dried up!

5. Topshop Ohh La La Lipstick

Loveee this lipstick! Its a gorgeous shimmery orange colour, but I'm going to do a review on it soon so I will put some swatches and stuff on then :)

6. Backcombing brush

This one is a Denman one from Boots but I use another one from Ebay and that one is just as good. I just think they are the best thing for getting volume in my hair, when I blow dry it most of the time it goes flat after about half an hour!
