How I Wave My Hair: Effortless Waves Hair Waver Tutorial! How To Crimp / Wave Your Hair | Faith Drew

Introduction

Welcome Back! If you're new, welcome! My name is Faith. Thank you so much for being here. Today, I'm thrilled to share a hair tutorial with you. It's been ages since my last one, and interestingly enough, my most-watched video is my first hair tutorial ever. While watching it recently, I realized how far I've come since then. Not only was it cringy to look back on, but I've also grown so much more comfortable talking to you all through the camera.

All About the Hair Waver Today’s star is this hair waver or crimper. You might have seen these trendy tools for a couple of years now. Although I was late to the game due to a bad experience with a similar tool in my youth, this modern three-barrel style caught my eye. I’ve had mine for about six months, originating from Amazon (brand is Allure, around $ 30-40). Unlike my previous experience with crimpers, this one is fantastic.

Preparation and Getting Ready Before diving into the tutorial, here are some housekeeping tips:

1. Clip up the top third of your hair, focusing on the bottom half first.
2. Brush through your hair.
3. If you use a heat protectant, spray it on now.

My hair tool heats up to 200 degrees Celsius (about 392 degrees Fahrenheit). It has an on button and a temperature control. For those with straighter hair, take smaller sections to ensure a better hold.

The Crimping Process With my waver:

• Start at the back with a large section.
• Align the barrels for a smooth wave.
• Hold for 5-10 seconds.

Continue crimping, ensuring the wave is consistent by overlapping slightly as you move down each section. It’s this technique that helps the style last for days.

For the top sections, ensure intensity by getting as close to the roots as possible. Here’s a trick: pull away from your face when crimping the front sections to avoid awkward crimps near the root.

Adding Finishing Touches Consider the following post-crimp care:

1. Use a texture spray for more volume.
2. Apply a hair oil to tame frizz and add shine.
