If you have unruly hair but you're afraid of damaging it with excessive heat styling, our Hair Art Director Tom Connell is here to help! Learn how to create natural waves, without using a hairdryer. Special guest: his wife Tricia!
Step 1: Wash and soften
To get beautiful, defined waves, you’ll need to start with a good haircare routine. LOVE/curl shampoo and conditioner add softness and moisture to your hair — for further hydration, you can apply the mask every two weeks.
Step 2: Detangle and define the waves
After washing, spray LOVE/curl Primer onto towel-dried hair. Next, comb starting from the roots towards the ends to untangle any knots. Then define your waves by applying LOVE/curl Cream on the lengths.
Pro tips:Apply the cream with the palm of your hand to avoid breaking up the natural waves.
Step 3: Divide into 5 sections and create the twist
Next, divide the hair into 5 sections: two in front of the ears and three at the back of the neck. Start by taking a front section and creating a small twist, turning the hair towards the face. Then repeat for all of the other sections.
Pro tips: Twist the front sections in toward the face, and the rear sections in the opposite direction.

Step 4: Open the twist to create the waves
