Those seeking beach waves that are both natural and feminine should opt for this style. All they require is a fabric belt (such as from their bathrobe) and four hair ties to achieve this look.
To achieve these soft, voluminous waves, begin by blow-drying and adding texturizing products. Once your hair is dry, create flat twists which transform into three-strand twists as they air dry.
1. Blow Dry

2. Twist Out
While it may seem obvious, choosing smaller twists over larger, looser twists will ensure your twist out maintains its shape and definition for longer. According to YouTube beauty vlogger HeyKali, smaller twists provide more defined waves and are likely to last longer.
Make sure that your twist begins on freshly-washed hair. According to Lord, adding some L’Oreal Paris Studio Line Clean Gel (like L’Oreal Paris Studio Line Clean Gel ) will add moisture and hold to the style.
When it comes to twisting hair, she recommends beginning at the roots and working your way down. In order to avoid frizz and maintain a more defined and voluminous style, using your fingers for gently tease out and tease-out your strands is recommended as picking/combing can create frizz; alternatively dry shampoo or refresher spray may provide added volume if your strands need help adding volume and definition.
3. Brush Out
Consistency is key when it comes to creating flawless waves. Washington suggests brushing out your locks daily before going to sleep or upon waking up, then applying dime-to-nickel size pomade or wax at roots and ends to add extra shine and help the waves fall back in place if they begin to slip; finishing it all off with a final mist of luminous hairspray for extra radiance (spoiler alert: it lasts all day long!).
