Step 1:

The first step to creating soft waves is to properly section your hair. Start by applying a heat protection spray and divide your hair into four sections: two on the sides and two at the back, creating quadrants.

Step 2:

Preheat your hair straightener and further divide one of the quadrants into a 1.5-inch section, starting from the base of your head to the top.

Step 3:

Begin at the roots and move the straightener in an 'S' shape, alternating between inward and outward turns at equal distances. You can adjust the distance based on the type of S-wave you want to achieve. Clamp the hair with the straightener from the roots to the ends. Alternatively, you can start at the root, clamp the hair with the flat iron to create the first bend, twist the section into an 'S' shape, and clamp it at the curve. Repeat this motion until you reach the end.

Step 4:

Repeat the previous steps for the remaining sections. Once you have finished, gently brush through your hair to blend all the sections together, creating a seamless and shiny wave.
