How To Do Beach Waves

Arr...Matey! It's International Talk Like A Pirate Day! Here's a tutorial on how to do beach waves using a three-barrel iron.

You will need: a three-barrel iron, clips, hairspray, and gel.

1. Start off by parting your hair at the nape of your neck and divide into small subsections.
2. Take a subsection, starting near your scalp, clamp your hair between the barrels and release.
3. Stay with the same subsection and crimp down the entire strand. With each crimp your hair will fall into three waves. When you move down the strand you are going to clamp down on the last or third wave you completed. This makes the waves look more natural.

4. Repeat steps 2-3 working your way up to the crown of your head, taking small partings and subsections.
5. Spray hairspray all over to make sure your waves stay in.
6. Rub gel onto your fingertips, lightly run your fingers through your hair and scrunch your hair upwards, toward your scalp.

7. Add a bandana to look like a pirate!
