Finger waves | How to make them yourself
Finger waves – a hairstyle that oozes of glamour, glitter and the Great Gatsby is celebrating its 100th anniversary this decade. Celebrating the anniversary of the hairstyle that conquered the world 100 years ago, we show you how to make a modern version of the finger waves yourself. Read more below.
DIY: How to make your own finger waves
Bring out your large barrel curling iron, a handful of hair clips and some delicious styling products and take yourself back to the roaring twenties (before the stock market crash, of course!). It’s time to let your hair down and venture into the world of the flapper.
Finger waves are super festive so why not get a head start and learn how to make a fashionable version of this stunning vintage style yourself in time for the many spring season events.
Follow the video below and learn how to make these beautiful finger waves yourself. We’re showing you how to make the finger waves in a bob, but you can make them in longer and shorter hairstyles too. So, it doesn’t matter if you have a short hairstyle or a longer one, nothing can prevent you from following the 2021 hair fashion, featuring this particular style on the catwalk. You can make finger waves throughout or add them as a festive and glamorous detail in your ponytail, bun or braid.
Watch the video below and get inspired by 3 beautiful finger wave hairstyles.
If your hair is very thick, we recommend that you keep your fingers to yourself and leave these festive waves to someone else. Because if you’re lucky enough to have voluminous hair, keeping your finger waves in place can be taxing. Luckily, there are a lot of other luscious party hairstyles out there. For example, you could try the 5 fabulous party hairstyles included in this blog post.
