hey guys it's ashli thanks for tuning in
today I'm going to be showing you how I
do my hair like this with some just
loose effortless waves with no heat
whatsoever no this isn't one of those
tutorials where I resort to curling my
hair at the end to touch things up it's
completely a huge frame so I hope you
guys enjoy and let's get into the
tutorial hey guys so here I am kind of
in my natural nighttime state I have
glasses no makeup and of course my sheep
shirt but the sheep is made out of yarns
and that cute anyways night time is
always when I start out my hair routine
I took a shower about an hour ago and I
just let my hair air dry my hair is
naturally straight so this is how it
normally looks so basically this part is
pretty simple all I'm going to do is put
my hair into two Dutch braids
I'd only part my hair at the side like
this but I'm actually going to parted in
the middle while I do my braids that's
because when I flip my hair that's been
parted this way back over to the other
side it's going to have a lot of natural
volume at the root from setting in the
opposite direction so a Dutch braid is
just like a French braid except it's
just passing each section underneath the
middle section instead of over it oh and
I forgot to say while you're doing this
it's really important that your hair is
completely dry or like 98% dry because
if your hair is to it at this point no
matter how long you wait it's just never
ever gonna dry so I'm approaching the
bottom if your hair is a little bit
shorter than mine you might actually not
be able to braid these back fits up into
the braid because they're too short
that's totally fine because these top
layers of wavy hair are going to cover
any straight layers like that you have
at the bottom but since my hair is a
little bit longer I'm going to continue
to add in as much hair as possible since
my hair is pretty thick and I roll
around a lot in my sleep these thick
elastics are best for my hair I don't
really notice that big of a crease but
if your hair is fine airy and it creases
more easily then you could use a little
clear elastic as well and I'm just going
to repeat the process to the others out
of my head
oh and the reason that I'm doing a Dutch
braid instead of a French braid is that
it allows the hair to be twisted a lot
closer to the root which gives you more
volume and better waves all right so now
we're nearly finished on what I like to
do just to make sure my hair gets more
of like a loose wave then a really tight
braided crimp um is to go ahead and
massage and loosen up the braids but
actually come a little bit more loose
and throughout the night but I like to
get the process started now just so my
waves won't end up to crimp me after my
braids are all done now I'm going to add
some moisture to my hair to really set
in the waves so I'm going to be using
this homemade sea salt spray that I made
in my leftover leave-in conditioner
bottle it's just a combination of water
salt pomade and leave-in conditioner I
like to use this because it naturally
adds a little bit more texture and hold
to my hair but if you don't feel like
making your own or buying a sea salt
spray then you can totally just put
water in a spray bottle and straight on
your head so I did about ten spritzes on
each braid so make sure you're feeling
your hair as you spritz on the salt
water spray just to make sure that you
don't overdo it and that it will
eventually dry and don't forget to get
this section the opposite side of the
braid as well use clip of the braids
close up as you can tell they're pretty
much a total mess but it totally doesn't
matter at this point I just always go to
sweep because it gives my hair a lot of
hours to set and these braids are
actually really comfortable to sleep in
there's nothing poking at your head or
anything but if you don't have anything
to do throughout your afternoon you can
always do these in the morning um and
then just walk around the house and let
them set if you've got a little bit more
neat way you can probably even run
errands or go to school but as for me
I'm off to bed so I'll see you tomorrow
a good morning guys so now my hair is
all dry I just left it in the crate
while I did my makeup and chain my
outfit but now it's time to the moment
of truth taking out the braids I'm just
going to take up the hair tie and then
unravel them gently off yeah I don't rip
them apart too much otherwise the waves
might be destroyed so now I'm going to
change my part back from the middle over
to the side like i normally wear it so
if you want to you could totally leave
it like this
but I'm going to use a couple products
just to finish styling my hair first I'm
going to go in with a finishing paste um
just to tame down the frizz and add some
hold and kind of be able to hold my hair
a little bit more so there really isn't
any scientific method here I'm just
scrunching the waves where ever I want
them to be a little bit more than mine
sometimes I would just stop here there
because the braiding worked out a little
bit better and left me with a better
wave over here but sometimes a little
picky about this section and I really
like the wave framing my face to be a
little bit more defined
so you have two options if you want to
touch up your curls first of all you
could just use a curling iron which I
use when I'm in a hurry but since the
title of this video does state that this
tutorial is heatless I'm going to show
you another method I just have these
hair styling clips from Sally's Beauty
Supply but they also sell them at Target
and a bunch of places online so I'm just
going to take the front section over
here and twist it around two fingers and
it's line off my fingers and secure it
with one of these clips if you want you
can do it to a couple other sections
here as well since I have another clip
on hand I'll just wind up
section since my hair is a bit stubborn
to waves I'm just going to spread some
hairspray over these real quick if you
don't like the feeling of hairspray or
if you don't have any of this step is
totally optional alright and now I'm
just going to let this set for around
five minutes while I go eat breakfast
alright so now I'm back and it's time to
take out little pin curls sections there
we go so now it's a little bit more
waved at the front and a little bit more
defined in football now I'm going to
model awkwardly for a couple seconds for
you and this is pretty much the finished
look I hope you guys enjoyed this
