How to Get Tousled Wavy Hair for Every Length

I tried the mini buns once and they looked great for a couple of hours and then they fell out. I didn't use any product thought, hopefully this time around they will stick around

These are pretty good tips, though I can never use the bristle brush, but I like the idea of no curlers. For my hair though I use 2" curls and spritz and they settle with 15min and I spritz again. I'm gonna try the mini buns and I hope they work. Never though it would work because I'm not a fan of the blow dryer.

I'm going to give it a try! Looks easy, but we will see. I have really fine hair and not a lot of it! Wish me luck!

I use the diffuser on my long hair. The mini bun tangled my hair.

relaxed waves are so cute, especially the beachy look

really helpful! I never thought to do the mini-buns before

Great article! My long hair is naturally curly, so I have to tame it down to achieve this look. Definitely worth trying!

by WiccanLady Friday, April 13, 2012 at 11:25AM Report as inappropriate

Can't wait to try these tips!! My hair is super straight, fine and long, so it's always a struggle to get any kind of wave. Hopefully these tips will help me out :)

I loved this artice. I just purchased some wavy clip in extensions and I have relaxed hair. I will be using this method to blend my hair.

by ashley2896 Sunday, April 8, 2012 at 03:52PM Report as inappropriate

Excited to try the medium look. My hair only has a slight natural wave, so it will take some work to achieve these beachy waves.

this is very useful..i alway swanted to know how to do this...and i already have the herbal essenses shampoo!

by olkrav319 Friday, April 6, 2012 at 05:21PM Report as inappropriate

all I have to do is use some Paul Mitchell super skinny smoothing serum, and some Paul Mitchell Round Trip, work it into damp hair, flip your head over and shake out the roots to lift them from the scalp and let air dry. This works great for naturally wavy hair or hair with loose curls. the smoothing serum eliminates frizz and the round trip adds body and enhances the waves/curls.

Love this look. Seems fairly simple to do for my long hair. Considering "doing" my hair usually consists of blow drying it straight using my fingers and maybe using a straightener on the ends. I usually let it air dry or throw it up in a pony tail. Will def have try give it a try one of these days?!

These are nice for younger ladies. But what do you have for us older ladies with fine thining hair or have the unruly grey .Not all of us want one of those kinky poodle style hair do's.. Lets see something for us if you can.

I loved tousled waves..

by eatinglipstick Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 07:47PM Report as inappropriate

Great article, but the tousle me softly shampoo really doesn't do anything for my hair.

I can't wait until my hair gets long again, it always looked fabulous without even trying. There is no way I can accomplish the bobby pin bit in the morning.

by mrselliott08 Thursday, February 23, 2012 at 06:00PM Report as inappropriate

Seems time consuming with the bobby pins. But, I will try, nothing else works lol.

by libby_stady Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 09:32PM Report as inappropriate

I was blessed with truly amazing red gold hair (not strawberry blond, but actual separate red and blond hair mixed together), thick as it can be, and perfectly wavy-curly. I just add a little styling products ever washing and towel-drying, scrunch with my hands, and let it air dry - although this requires a few hours. My twin sister, who's always had fine, thin, straight brown hair has always been sooo jealous! I recommend the TresEmme products highly - you get a lot for the price of emollient, hair-caring ingredients! Dr. JH

I have medium length hair and will def try this. I like the bobby pin idea! Sounds super easy and my hair has a lil wave anyway. Hope it works out well!

by bayoukris Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 09:08AM Report as inappropriate

I love the look of the medium length hair. I've tried getting this style so many times with no luck. I'll be trying this when I have some time to devote to my hair. It definitely does not seem like it's something I could do each morning.

I get this look by blow drying my hair and then roll it up and leave it there for like 15 minutes and then let it down and "mess it up" with my fingers

by gisellemarie Thursday, August 25, 2011 at 06:39AM Report as inappropriate

it didn't work for me :(

by Bon_Bon Monday, August 15, 2011 at 08:37PM Report as inappropriate

Love this hairstyle! (it just does not work on me)

by MissPurple Tuesday, August 2, 2011 at 03:21PM Report as inappropriate

This style always works very well for me! My natural hair is wavy, so with some mouse it looks relaxed. When I wear my hair touseled, I always get compliments on how great my hair looks. People ask me if it's my natural hair, and I just explain to them that all I do is just step out of the shower and apply mousse! The only issue for me is that in order to get the look I want, I have to constantly scrunch my hair. It ends up hurting my fingers pretty badly sometimes though. I actually thought I had arthritis for a while, which is crazy because I'm only sixteen. Well, anyways, this hairstyle is absolutely amazing and a great idea for when you're in a rush. I shower everyday, so it kind of became a habit to do this everyday. However, I find that if I've had my hair up all day, all it takes is to throw my hair under the sink faucet and apply some mousse! Don't be afraid to try this style, you will like it! I've had friends with naturally straight hair that try this, and it sometimes works out well, but not always. This style is more recommended for people with naturally wavy hair. I hope your hair works out as great as mine does!

After years of straightening my hair, I've been trying to embrace my natural waves but had no idea how to style my hair - just blow drying, or air drying, wasn't cutting it. This article is exactly what I needed!

This is an excellent tutorial that every day folks can actually follow. I only wish that it took less time, and products, to make hair look "slept in" or "windblown"
