Wash your hair, brush it thoroughly to remove all tangles and towel dry until it is damp.
Rub a walnut-sized amount of styling mousse into your tresses, distributing it evenly on your hair. If you want to create great waves that last, braid your damp hair in a tight braid and leave it like that overnight.
You can make one larger French braid in order to obtain loose waves, while more, smaller braids give you tighter waves. The larger the braid, the less wavy is your hair. However if you want to achieve big defined waves, don’t make more than 6 or 8 braids.
Feel free to experiment with braids in order to find out which type suits you best.
If you want to make two braids and add more texture to your tresses, part your hair in the middle of your head, dividing it into 2 segments and French braid each section separately. Secure your braids with elastic bands and take them out the next morning. In order to curl the ends of the braids, twist the ends of your hair around a medium foam bendy roller or a fat pen.
Finally, untie your braids and if you consider that your hair is too wavy, wet your hands and dampen it a little bit. Let it air dry then you can fix your locks with a touch of hairspray.
Now you are ready to make a statement with your glamorous new hairstyle.
Another great way to add natural waves to your straight hair is by piling up your strands in a bun.
After you have washed your hair, towel dry it, comb well and apply a curl enhancing mousse on your damp tresses.
As a next step, create a bun, by twisting your hair around itself and fixing it at the top of your head with an elastic band. Let it dry completely for a few hours or overnight then let your bun loose. Comb your fingers through your hair in order to separate strands and make them look looser.
This way you have created stunning natural wavy locks without using any styling tools that dry out your hair. If you want to hold your waves, as a finishing touch apply a little bit of hairspray.
You can easily achieve a 1940s inspired glam wavy look even when your hair is short. Comb a dime amount of styling mousse or styling gel through your hair, and create delicate waves with the comb, fixing them with carefully with simple hair clips. Take out the clips and you are ready. You may need a little time to experiment in order to obtain the desired hairstyle, but the result is well worth it. Get inspired by a gorgeous diva look from the 40s and enjoy the versatility of your short hairstyle.
