4. The Soft Hollywood Wave
Hollywood waves are the embodiment of old-school glamour. This style is soft, voluminous, and incredibly photogenic. The key to this look is consistency; you want the waves to flow in a singular, uniform direction to create that signature high-shine, cinematic wave pattern.
How to Style
Using a large-barrel curling iron, curl your hair in uniform 1-inch sections, ensuring you curl everything in the same direction—away from your face. Once you have finished, do not touch the curls until they have cooled completely. When they are cool, use a wide-tooth comb to gently brush through them, which will blend the sections into a continuous, flowing wave. Finish with a high-shine spray for that reflective “red carpet” look.
Things Needed
- 1.5-inch large-barrel curling iron
- Wide-tooth comb
- Heat-protectant spray
- High-shine finishing spray
