Effortless, beachy, and free.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/best-sandals-to-shop-now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Summer</a> is the perfect time to try out new <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/beauty/hair-trends-daisy-jones-and-the-six-momo-lisa-selena-gomez-hailey-bieber" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hairstyles</a>, and beachy waves are a classic for a reason. This effortless look is both easy to achieve and versatile, with heat styling and heatless options available. Whether you're spending a day at the <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/tarnish-free-jewellery-for-summer-necklaces-earrings-rings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beach</a> or just want to look like you did, beachy waves are a lived-in look that pairs well with that summer glow. With the right technique and products, you can achieve a natural, tousled look that's absolutely summery. Here, L&rsquo;OFFICIEL gives you the go-to guide for perfecting the beachy waves look.

Even if you aren't planning on going to the beach, you can still achieve beachy waves with some styling. If you're in a time crunch, using heat might be your best bet to give your hair a tousled, natural vibe. Though heat devices can be damaging to your hair, taking the right precautionary steps should be your first line of defense.&nbsp;

To begin styling the beachy waves of your dreams, prep your hair with a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/tips-to-protect-your-hair-from-heat-damage" target="_blank" rel="noopener">heat-protectant</a> styling spray. We love Gisou's version of heat-protectant because it defends the hair follicles while also fending off <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-get-rid-of-frizz-hair-tips-products" target="_blank" rel="noopener">frizz</a>. After you've prepped your hair, going in with heat is the next step to achieving effortless beachy waves.&nbsp;

Though you can use any heat device, a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/crimped-hair-trend-2000s-hairstyle" target="_blank" rel="noopener">crimper</a> is designed specifically for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/sienna-miller-beach-waves-hair-how-to" target="_blank" rel="noopener">waves</a>. Giving you a crisp, defined look, Amika's hair crimper is our preferred choice as it gives voluminous volume while fighting against intense creases.&nbsp;

If you don't have a crimper on hand, a curling iron is your next best bet. Adding a few tousled <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/curly-hair-trends-2021-zendaya-rihanna" target="_blank" rel="noopener">curls</a> throughout your hair immediately gives you the beachy waves you've been wanting. Make sure to keep the pieces you curl loose so they're more wavy than curly. The T3 tapered styling wand delivers <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/liquid-hair-effect-gloss-trend" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shiny</a> waves that give your look silky definition.&nbsp;

Despite its contradictory name, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/hair-styling-tools-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">straightening irons</a> can give you beautiful beach waves. Rather than using the straightener in a traditional sense, wrap the hair around the iron to achieve tousled, natural beachy waves. GHD's straightener is our go-to with improved technology that promises to damage hair less than other irons.&nbsp;

Keep your newfound waves in place with a texturizing hold spray. We love Ouai's texturizing hair spray which holds beach waves in place while defining the structure of the individual, lived-in waves. The aerosol formula sprays evenly to ensure that each individual hair is coated with this volume-enhancing product.&nbsp;

We all know how damaging heat can be for our hair. If using a heat device intimidates you, there are heatless alternatives for achieving beachy waves this summer. Braiding your hair is our go-to way to master effortlessly tousled hair without relying on heat. After braiding your hair, styling and scrunching it with a texture or wave spray keeps beachy waves lasting all day.&nbsp;

If you're short on time, sleeping in braids will deliver this sought-after look. Ensuring that you catch up on your Z's in a protective hair band is our favorite way to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/skincare-beauty-sleep-secrets-moisturizer-national-sleep-day" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sleep</a> your way to healthy hair. When braiding your hair for the wavy look, we love to use Slip hair ties to keep hair in place overnight. The <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/silk-benefits-hair-skincare-pillowcase-scrunchies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">silk</a> structure of these adorable mini hair scrunchies gives hair a chance to recover while maintaining hold.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Once you wake up with wavy hair, use a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/how-to-get-french-girl-hair-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">texture spray</a> to hold the waves all day and define the style. Clean hair brand Briogeo delivers a hydrating wave spray that smells like summer, keeping your hair effortlessly natural without having to make a trip to the beach.&nbsp;
