HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

  Start by creating a deep side part. Separate and clip the hair into three sections—left, right and back.

  Adjust the temperature on the Beachwaver® PRO based on your client’s hair. If she has colored hair, lower the heat. If her hair doesn’t easily hold curls, keep it at a higher heat to lock in your roller set.

•

  Lift and turn the Beachwaver® PRO to a horizontal position. Select R (for “Roller!”) and curl the hair, rolling each piece under. Feed the hair in, opening and closing the clamp near the ends, like you would with a Marcel iron. “Because of the controlled rotation that the Beachwaver has, all of your curls are consistent, so you will end up with a very structured wave,” shares Sarah.

  Hold each curl for 3 to 4 seconds, open up the clamp and slide the curl out. Hold it in your hand instead of dropping it to avoid manipulating the curl.

  5

  Take the hair, put your finger right through it and roll it under until it’s right at the root. Lift and attach to the base with a small clip to create on-base curls.

  Repeat until you’ve created a complete roller set and allow to cool.

  Spray a brush with flexible hairspray and brush throughout the curls. Take big sections of hair and brush through like you would a ponytail. Continue to apply heavy amounts of hairspray onto the brush to evenly distribute the product.

  Like a ponytail, take the hair and roll it over your hand. By doing this, your hair will take the shape of the pattern that you’ve created. “What’s key about your brush-out is bringing the hair together and creating one solid movement,” shares Sarah.

  Continue to brush through, lift and set the shape of the hair. Build up the volume at the top of the head.

  Finish by applying hairspray. Pro Tip: Use the can to tame flyaways.
