For many women, getting that long wavy
hairstyle requires spending hours in a
beauty salon getting just the right perm to
have that “natural” wave look. Some women
are lucky and born with thick, wavy hair, and
never know the lengths that their straighthaired
sisters suffer to obtain that goodnatured,
sexy, fun, and youthful appearing hair style.
Shapes
Women who have oval-shaped faces
can certainly wear their hair long
and wavy; however, for women who
have pear-shaped or square-shaped
faces, long wavy hairstyles are
absolutely the most flattering. Long
hair that is set in a longer, curvy style
is not the most flattering on women
who have diamond, round, or heartshaped
faces.
Getting the Waves
For women who yearn for long wavy hairstyles, but
have straight hair with no wave to it, there are several
options for getting that preferable look. One way is to
use a large curling iron because it is a simple, easy to
carry, and affordable way to create a glamorous look
of long loose curls. Another method is hot curlers,
which produce the desired volume and bounce.
The final recommendation is a body wave which uses
chemicals to permanently (or at least until the hair
grows out and the wave is no longer lasting) achieve
the preferred wavy look. For some women the
permanent can last only six to eight weeks because
their hair grows so rapidly; others will have the
desired wavy look for six months to a year since their
hair barely grows. For the later, this is great because
perms can get expensive. Find the best hairstyles for

Psychology
For many women who prefer long wavy hairstyles,
it is preferred because the women feel young and
appealing; perhaps even revealing the desire for a
completely non-conventional lifestyle – a longing for
independence from societal norms; to free the spirit
from the expectation of “growing up”. This style is
easily maintained, get up, run fingers through it and
go – the most desirable tresses for the bohemian freespirited
woman.
Summary
Long wavy hairstyles sometimes
indicate a bohemian-nature;
however, for many the wavy tresses
insinuate the wearer is free-spirited
and non-conventional.
