Waved Nod Hairstyle

With the nod in 2011 being generally longer and softer, it's much easier to pull off a waved style with it. While 40s-inspired pin curls are one option, here's one that's more suited to everyday. A casual, textured, beachy wave.

How to create the waved nod

We caught up with ghd at the 2011 AFI Awards as they created a beachy wave on actress Caitlin Stasey. Here are the steps from Heading Out Hair's Caterina DiBiase, working exclusively with ghd, for how you can recreate the style.

1.Work in ghd Maximise Mousse all through the hair, then dry in.

2.Section off the hair then use your ghd Salon Styler to create some loose, semi-curls (they need to have bend, but not be fully curly). Start curling a few inches down from the roots.

3.Spray the hair with ghd Sea Spray to create a relaxed, beachy texture.

4.Finally, blast the hair with a hair dryer to break it up.
