Making Waves

Create Bohemian Waves with a Flatiron:

It seems everyone from Gisele to the Olsen twins have perfected those not-trying-too-hard, soft, wavy hairstyles.  True skill in creating this look always seemed to elude me…until yesterday.  Turns out, I may have been using the wrong tools.

I came across the following video on YouTube.  It is easily one of the top ten beauty-demonstration-videos I’ve seen.

Natalya provides clear instructions, the results are fabulous, plus she’s cute as a button and has a darling British accent.  She’s delightful.

Click on the video below for step-by-step instructions on creating beachy waves using a flatiron.

    Great demonstration! Only drawback is that it would be very time consuming. Very cute style for a night out or special occasion though!

    She’s so adorable. I love the way she says voluminous. haha.
    But thank you for posting this Piper! I hate using the barrel irons. It’s great to invest in a good hair straightener because you can use it for curls & now that I know, for waves also. So thank you!

    I tried this before. I just didn’t have the patience! It does work though!

    ❤ Trish–You’re right, it does take some time. Definitely not
    an everyday look for us busy ladies. But fun to do on occasion.

    ❤ Nicole–I completely agree, she IS adorable. Once I started
    watching the video, I had to see it through to the end just
    because I was digging her accent so much. And then of course,
    the results were just so good–I’m glad I did watch it all.

    ❤ Retro Chick–You were definitely a step ahead of me…I
    hadn’t figured out this flatiron trick before watching the
    video. And you’re right – it takes a lot of patience. I’ll
    only be doing it for special occasions.
