They never left, they have always been the ultimate summer hairstyle, but this year they are back stronger than ever. It’s a very youthful and flattering type of wave, which looks good on both midi and long hair, “because the elongated effect makes the style more casual and classy at the same time.” To make them, nothing beats Sea Salt Spray from MrSmith, the Australian brand trusted by Isamar Studio, perfect for achieving a more urban and casual surfer effect. Sara Carbonero has been her most loyal follower since the beginning of these waves, now joined by influencers such as Laura Matamoros or the actresses María Pedraza and Blanca Suárez, as Isamar Studio reminds us.
As Eduardo Sánchez explains: “It is a comfortable hairstyle to wear, which you do not have to worry about constantly. In addition, it is easy to adapt to practically all types of faces and textures. In this case it will be necessary to analyze the characteristics very well to create the volumes, if the movements are lateral and when it is necessary to set the part aside,” recommends the stylist.
“It is relatively simple,” explains the director of Maison Eduardo Sánchez, “first a volumizing spray is applied and then the hair is dried. If it is curly or frizzy hair, it must first be brushed or straightened with a hair, in the case of straight mane, with the pre-drying of the hair downwards, it is enough.Then the movement is determined, whether it is lateral or central, and the hair is evaporated with a wave spray, making sections from the bottom of the head to the crown and spray each strand with that same spray. Once all the hair is sprayed, the waves are worked through the hair with the tongs.”
“One of the most common methods stylists and hairdressers use to get natural and perfect waves without heat is to braid hair that is still wet. To do this, you need to apply the curly mask with still damp hair. Remember to use only a small amount so as not to weigh it down. After the product is well spread, comb it into one or more braids. An expert trick: For the waves to look natural, make a braid that isn’t too tight,” says Primor.
“With wet hair, do two or more braids all over your hair, wait for the hair to dry in the sun, and if you pull it out you will have strong, wavy surfer waves. You can also use a salt spray that contains salts, minerals and marine extracts that manage to imitate the effect of seawater on the texture of the hair,” say the stylists at Ma Belle Salon.
“Spray a wave spray all over your hair, avoiding the roots. Then you need to separate your hair into six strands, twist them, secure them with a clip and let them air dry. If the hair is already dry, and with the head down, it’s time to shape the waves by ruffling the hair with your hands,” says Stephan, stylist at Leonor Greyl.
“Finally, with a wide tooth comb or with your fingers, the waves are opened. And finally, a little shine serum and a final touch of fixing spray are applied. There are no other secrets or tricks than working well with waves and a good fixing spray”, adds Eduardo Sanchez.
“If you have a lot of hair, it’s best to style it with the flat iron to comb and style it well,” recommends Sanguino of Llongueras. Once the curls are highlighted, brush a lot and fix the first and second wave with a little hairspray, leaving the rest of the hair loose. This hairstyle especially flatters round ovals as it clears the forehead.
