Beach Waves or Curls 

Beach waves are perfect for creating a relaxed and effortless look. This style is great for any occasion, and it can be achieved by using a curling iron or hair straightener. Start by separating your hair into sections and then curl each section in a different direction. When you're done, brush through the curls to create a natural wave effect. For added texture and volume, spritz some salt spray onto your hair.

Classic Blowout 

A classic blowout is a great style for an everyday look, for a workday, or even a night out! A blowout is also a very versatile look that can be smooth or super voluminous and bouncy! You can achieve this with a blow-dryer and a round brush, over directing and elevating the hair; or simply applying tension and downward motion for smoothness. For extra volume or bounce you can pin and set each section or use a tool such as velcro or hot rollers.
