Beach waves are a type of loose, natural-looking curl that can be created with a curling iron. They are a popular choice for summer hairstyles, as they give hair a relaxed, beachy look. To create beach waves with a curling iron, you will need a curling iron with a barrel size of 1-1.5 inches, and some hairspray.
Section your hair into small, even sections. Start by taking a small section of hair from the top of your head and clamping it in the curling iron. Hold the curling iron vertically and wrap the hair around the barrel, starting at the roots. Hold the hair in place for 5-10 seconds, or until it is heated through. Release the hair and let it cool for a few seconds before moving on to the next section.
