Ever wonder how the celebs walk around everyday with perfect waves in their hair?? If you could, wouldn't you?? WELL, CONGRATS! It's time you knew how!!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Revlon 3-Barrel Jumbo Waiver, about $29.99
  • Time to learn
  • Craving to look gorgeous!!!!!!
  1. Step 1

    Buy a Revlon 3-Barrel Jumbo Waiver @ any Walgreens store near you. Go home, open it up and be prepared to look hot!!!

  2. Step 2

    Clamp the roller shut with your hand and put the closing handle over the 2 metal pieces- the 1 semi-ripply side and the 3 barrel side together to heat evenly before apllying to your hair.

  3. Step 3

    Turn heat up to a setting from (1)-(25) for your natural hair type whether it's pin strait/wispy hair to frizzy/naturally curly hair.

  4. Step 4

    Part your hair into sections (as many as you want) but I usually do about 8 (w/ my naturally wavy/frizzy hair). While pinning and seperating these sections, make sure to brush hair thoroughly so you don't have to fight with your hair when it is time to use the 3-Barrel Jumbo Waiver.

  5. Step 5

    Take your 1st section of hair and comb through once more to create a silky, untangled section and grab the Jumbo Waiver and apply it firmly to the top portion of that section of hair. Leave it on your hair with a firm grip until you have created a nice wave and then move the Jumbo Waiver to the bottom piece of that same section of hair. ( So that whole section has perfect waves. Don't leave on too long or you will fry your hair. However, if you leave it on not long enough, you won't hair tight curled waves.)

  6. Step 6

    Repeat these steps for the rest of the sections of hair. I don't recommend you brush through it afterwards due to that it may cause smoother/frizzy waves. Afterwards, run some smoothing serum (I recommend John Paul Mitchell Smoothing Serum) through your hair with your fingers and on the outside to tame any strays.

  7. Step 7

    You now look like a goddess!! Go flaunt your new look!

Tips & Warnings
  • When curling sections of hair, go from top to bottom of hair for all over beautiful curly waves. When you turn up the heat a little higher though, the waves will set and this hairstyle can sometimes last up to 3 days.
  • Do not leave on your hair too long, you may fry and/or burn your hair.
