Video Tutorial: My Signature Beachy Waves

It's Monday but I could care less because I am officially on vacay! Starting my career as an elementary teacher, I never thought I would have to return to a life of no summers off. It's definitely a tough luxury to give up, so I appreciate my time off like you wouldn't believe now that I don't have it. With the extra few days, I'm getting plenty done this week before we head out east to Montauk for the fourth. First up is this hair tutorial, which has been my most-requested video content to-date.

I'm so excited to finally be able to share a full tutorial for my signature beachy waves with you guys! Breaking down the process step-by-step, from the right way to hold the wand to my favorite post-styling products.

Read more about my tips + tricks below and make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel for updates on new videos!
[also see: styling tips for the perfect beachy waves]

Tip for short hair: Using a wand with shorter hair, it's easy to lose a lot of length quickly. To gain some length back and keep your hair from looking like Shirley Temple, once you're done curling, gently run a flatiron over your curls with one pass. While your hair is still hot, give your ends a tug to flatten your curls out. Doing this will achieve a gorgeous, tousled beachy look like this.

Tip for a more undone look: After curling, use a flatiron to straighten the bottom 2" of your hair. This will help to create a piecey, lived-in style!

    Great post – I am blessed to have naturally wavy hair (and some good ol’ water does the trick if the waves aren’t perfect in the morning) but this video was super awesome! I will definitely be sharing it with some of my friends who envy wavy hair 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

      Oh how cool that your hair is naturally wavy! I’d kill for that – but we always want what we don’t have, right?!

    Great idea to use a flat iron on short hair after wanding it! I have pretty short and need to try this!

Hi friends! It’s been a little quiet around here Hi friends! It’s been a little quiet around here lately 🤫 Here’s what I’ve been up to...  🙅🏼‍♀️ Setting boundaries between real life & social media (more time spent in the moment)  ⏰ Early to bed, early to rise (and limited phone time when I wake up & before bed)  👟 AM workouts so there are no excuses after a long day  🥒 Lots of meal prep, organization, planning & time spent cooking with Joe  👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨 More quality time, date nights, and no-phone boundaries  ⚖️ A little more even keel work-life balance  I’ve been doing a lot of re-evaluating on the space I want to create for us here on my page. Tuning out the noise over the past few weeks has helped me tremendously to realign my priorities & I’m really looking forward to seeing how they play out over the next few months together. Thanks for always riding it out with me!! 😌 Xo, D 💗 • http://liketk.it/3bNGx @liketoknow.it #liketkit
#ad Growing up near the water and being steps away #ad Growing up near the water and being steps away from the beach was such a special part of my childhood. There was always an emphasis on things like keeping our beaches clean, preservation and conservation; things which I still find so much importance in and plan to teach my kids one day.  This year I’ve been so proud to partner with @waterlesshaircare, a brand founded alongside the 2018 Day Zero water crisis in South Africa. With an inherent need for conservation, Waterl<ss’ products enable a greater stretch between wash days, allowing women, with different hair types, to still look and feel their best without a single drop of water.  Want to do your part? Head over to @waterlesshaircare as they celebrate World Water Day to learn how we can all be more water-conscious and other ways you can help support water insecurity for communities based in the U.S 🌎💧 #GoWaterless #WaterlessHaircare #WaterlessFam

I remember driving down to the beach with Joe just to sit in the car and get out of the house last March. We’ve still got a ways to go, but nights like this remind me how much has changed in a year 🤯 Thankful that much brighter (longer AND warmer 🌞) days are just around the corner 🙌🏼 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/3asx2
