Towel Time

If you're used to roughing your hair up with a towel, it's time to stop! This can create frizziness and make your hair dry and brittle when air drying. Instead, try gently pressing smaller sections of your hair between two sides of the towel. This will remove moisture without adding frizz. We also love microfibre towels! Normal cotton towels can be rough on your hair cuticles and we therefore recommend a microfibre towel to avoid ongoing damage. This will also help with air drying by preventing friction with the hair cuticle.

The Twist Technique

This is the ultimate, no fuss technique for relaxed 'French girl' waves. Once your hair has partly dried, take small sections of your hair and twist them into tight curls by twirling the ends with your fingers. This will remove excess water and speed up drying time as well as creating beautiful effortless waves.

Braiding

Braiding is an amazing way to create cool, beach babe waves without damaging heated tools. For looser, more relaxed waves we recommend parting your hair into four larger braids and ensuring they are not braided to tight. For tighter curls, we recommend doing more smaller braids your hair, ensuring they are braided slightly tighter.
