Wavy Hairstyles
A wavy hairstyle is one in which the hair bends and curves in soft, open wave-like formations. Natural waves are genetically determined in each individual and can change due to factors such as time, health, hormones, medication as well as certain cutting techniques because they determine how much weight is pulling down on the hair shaft.
Method Wavy hair needs to be cut and groomed by a trained hairstylist. Shaping and weight determination can make or break any particular look. Wavy hairstyles can also be achieved with naturally straight hair types by using chemicals and rollers (and rearranging the inner structure of the hair).
Benefits Wavy hairstyles can be styled straight with the use of blow-dryers, straighteners, and styling aids, and by adjusting the weight through the layers (longer, heavier layers create weight and reduce waves while more layers reduce weight and increase bounce).
Beware If you want a smoother, straighter result, beware of short layers.
Also razor-cuts can be a problem because they can make shorter hair wispy in the mid-lengths and appear frizzy.
Tips There are lots of wavy hairstyles to choose from, and with a good consultation you should find something that complements your features and attributes. |
