Concept Overview & Aesthetic Appeal
A glamorous, vintage-inspired blowout featuring uniform, undulating waves that flow continuously down the side of the head in high-gloss ribbons.
Step-by-Step Execution Guide
-
Prep hair with setting lotion and dry in horizontal 1.5-inch sections.
-
Wrap each section around a 1.5-inch ceramic brush, rolling all sections in the exact same direction (backward toward the crown).
-
Pin each warm curl flat against the scalp in a pin-curl clip to cool.
-
Once the entire head is cooled, remove all clips.
-
Gently brush through the entire head using a natural boar-bristle paddle brush; the uniform curls will link together into a single continuous wave pattern.
-
Set with a light mist of medium-hold hairspray and smooth flyaways with a clean spoolie brush.

Pro Styling Tip
Rolling every section in the identical direction is the essential rule for Hollywood waves; opposing directions will cancel the unified ribbon wave out.
