Whether they’re tousled and beachy, effortlessly natural, or bombshell perfect, hair waves are always a go-to style that always causes major hair envy. But getting the perfect wave – whether piecey and lived-in or bouncy and smooth – is easier said than done, especially when up against the frizz-friendly humidity of summer. And let’s face it: when the heat is on, who wants to be spending hours fussing over our hair? But with the right tools and styling products, you can spend less time on your hair and more time looking like the fly goddess you are. Sephora is already our go-to destination for beauty, and they also have a next-level selection of the best hairstyling products and tools to achieve the waves of your dreams.

That’s All Me Waves
Give your naturally great waves a boost with frizz-busting and curl-defining products that will bring you all the compliments.
Start your style in the shower with a one-and-done formula that both washes and sets your natural waves as your hair dries. The result: pure magic. Try: Living Proof Perfect Hair Day In-Shower Styler, (CAD $33)
Cut down on airdrying and styling time with a quick-dry spray or wash-and-wear foam that gets you out the door faster and looking fire. Try: IGK No More Blow High Speed Air Dry Spray (CAD $35), or Ouai Air Dry Foam (CAD $35)
Scrunch and tousle your way to piecey texture and mega shine with a dose of finishing spray wax. Try: Drybar The Kicker Finishing Spray Wax (CAD $33).
Been-At-The-Beach Waves
Get fresh-from-the-ocean, windswept waves with salt and texturizing sprays that give just the right amount of grit and undone texture.
Go for a salt-free formula to bring out that “lived-in” texture with a touchable feel. Try: Amika Un.Done Volume and Matte Texture Spray (CAD $33)
Spray on a salt-infused spray to enhance natural waves and use your fingers to twist and define loose, tousled curls. Try: VERB Sea Texture Spray (CAD $18) or Bumble and Bumble Solid & Striped Surf Spray (CAD $32)
Worked-For-It Waves
Mermaid-perfect waves can be yours with these must-have tools, frizz fighters and texturizers.
Use a curling iron for more polished waves or a flat iron for a more natural look. An all-in-one styler gives you the best of both worlds. Try: GHD Platinum Professional Performance Styler (CAD $299)
Add a little piecey-ness to polished waves with a texturizing foam that gives a “lived-in” look all while nixing frizz. Try: Ouai Dry Texture Foam (CAD $35)
