Tutorial: Beachy Waves!

This is a post I started about eight months ago and am finally finishing up. Enjoy!

I'm going to start off by saying that I have no idea how this will turn out, seeing as I've never done a hair tutorial on my blog before. However, I wanted to share this simple tutorial with you because I know I personally am a big fan of it.

Now I don't know about you, but I have never been able to get the "heatless beachy waves" hair style to look nice on me - my hair always frizzes up. This is my way of achieving that look, using heat because my hair has issues.

You're going to need:

Hairspray (I used the Herbal Essences Body Envy)

A flatiron (Mine is the Babyliss Nano-Titanium)

OPTIONAL: Beach Spray (this is the L'anza Healing Style Beach Spray).

You're going to want to start out au naturale, taking about an inch section of hair and twisting it around on itself.

Next, take a flat iron and run it over the twist until heated.

Repeat on the rest of the head. You should look like you have dreadlocks. Then just spray with 

hairspray, shake out and carry on with your day! I added a bit of beach spray to acheive the "piece-y" look.

Quick Tip: Get Rid of Static

So today I've got a really quick tip for everyone out there who has really static-y hair. I'm definitely one of those people who has pretty fine hair, so it's constantly frizzy and full of static. This gets particularly bad in the winter when it's quite dry.

My tip for all of you suffering from extreme static is to carry around a dryer sheet in your bag. Yes - a dryer sheet. When you put these in the dryer, they remove static from your clothes so that you don't have to deal with static in that regard. When used on your hair, it's the same idea - they just remove any static so your hair sits flat again.

I just recommend pulling it out every so often and running it through your hair. You might get a few weird looks, but it works really well!

So that's my tip :) for those reading, what do you do to get rid of static?
