Get The Look: Messy Side-Swept Waves
Start with clean hair.
Begin by washing your hair with TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Shampoo and condition with TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Conditioner to prepare your hair for effortlessly gorgeous waves. Apply a heat protectant like TRESemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Spray on damp hair, then blow-dry.
Part your hair.
Using the tail of a fine-tooth comb, part your hair on one side of your face from the hairline to mid-crown.
Create your waves.
Use a one-inch hair wand to add waves to your hair. Begin your waves a few inches away from your roots and curl away from your face. Wrap your hair around the barrel and leave the ends out, hold for a few seconds and release.
Enhance your texture.
Instead of using your texturizing spray on damp hair, apply Suave Professionals Sea Mineral Infusion Texturizing Sea Salt Spray onto your hair after creating your waves to give them a sexy and undone look. Enhance texture by scrunching your hair, then air-dry.
Add shine and finish.
Finish off your look by using a few drops of Nexxus New York Salon Care Oil Infinite Hair Oil throughout your hair to add shine and tame frizz.
