As festival season starts up, it’s time to start planning not just your outfits but also your hair game.
This beachy waves and piece-y braids look was all over at Coachella, and the best part is that it’s so easy to achieve at home.

This braided beach waves look isn’t just great for music festivals, though. It also is so cute for summer days, casual date nights, or just running errands.
How to get the Braided Beach Waves Look
- Step 1: Start by sectioning the hair using a Darby Clip. Prep the hair using Great Barrier Heat Protectant Hairspray.
- Step 2: Curl the bottom sections using the Beachwaver B1 (the one used here is from the Beachwaver limited-edition TTS exclusive Pretty Pastel Collection).
- Step 3: Use a Wide Tooth Comb to create a clean center part. Next, apply Braid Balm to the root.
- Step 4: On the first half of the head, take a one-inch section of hair closest to the forehead and separate it into 3 sections to begin creating a Dutch braid. A Dutch braid is similar to a French braid, but it’s ‘puffy’ and on top of the hair. Follow the mantra of left under the middle, right under the middle adding hair to each section as you continue. Once you’ve added hair from the crown of the head, continue with a basic 3-strand braid.
- Step 5: Repeat this braid on the other side of the head. Curl the remainder of the hair not included in the braid.
- Step 6: Use a wide tooth comb to turn the curls into waves and spray using some Team Texture to add volume.
- Step 7: For some added festival fun, use silver hair jewelry to pierce the braids!
