With clips or pins
Hair pins or barrettes are not only used to hide strands and hair when you despair of them falling on your face. Using them will help you get incredible water waves.
First, separate your hair into sections. For each strand, apply a little mousse or gel starting 2.5 centimeters below the roots and pull towards the ends, to further define the waves.
Use a comb to distribute the product well and roll with your fingers from the base of the hair to the ends. Take sections of hair and wrap them around your index finger. Since you have everything in a roll, secure it with a pin. Add a little spray to prevent unruly or frizzy hair from appearing.
You must do the procedure with all your hair. It may take a little time, but the result will be worth it.
Once your hair is dry, when removing, remove the pins and wrap a strand of hair around two fingers to create the initial curl and with the help of your fingers loosen and shape each curler.

This is one of our grandmothers’ tricks that allowed them to show off beautiful curls without having to use any heat tools. In addition to being great, it will not damage your hair.
All you have to do is cut strips of thin fabric, for example from a cotton t-shirt that you no longer need, and wrap strands of hair around them. You take a strand and position it in the middle of the strip, then you begin to roll upwards and when you reach the scalp, you join the ends of the strip with a bun. You leave it overnight and to remove them, do so carefully and brush with your hands as usual, so that your hair takes on a wavy effect, without having to go through a heat procedure.
This remedy is great, as the fabric absorbs moisture from the hair and gives it a defined shape.

This way you will get a hairstyle with extra volume and without damage to your hair. Spray hairspray so that the look remains intact for a long time.
Braids throughout the hair
Whatever your hair, if you want more defined waves, you can achieve it by applying the traditional braid trick. Weave all your hair into braids and go to sleep, in the morning just undo the braids and comb to give more volume as desired. The number of braids and the size will depend on the shape you want to give your hair. You can apply some fixative or product to make them last longer.
Tubes
Tubes come in many sizes, shapes, and materials, from plastic to foam. The width of the tube will determine how defined or relaxed your waves will look.
