Start with clean, completely dry hair
Curls hold best on dry hair. Wash with Olaplex No.5 and let air dry fully. Curling damp hair causes damage and poor curl retention.
Apply heat protectant
Non-negotiable in UAE — your hair already faces heat and humidity stress daily. Use Olaplex No.6 Bond Smoother on damp hair before blow drying — it fights UAE humidity all day too.
Section your hair
Divide into 3–4 horizontal sections. Start from the bottom layer and work upward. More sections = more defined curls.
Set the right temperature
Fine or damaged hair: 150–180°C. Normal hair: 180–200°C. Thick or coarse hair: 200–220°C. Starting too hot is the most common mistake.
Curl and alternate direction
With the Beachwaver B1, clamp hair near the root and press the rotation button — it does the work. Alternate direction on each section for the most natural, salon-like result.
Let curls cool before touching — this is the secret
Hold each curl in your palm for 10–15 seconds after releasing. Setting the curl shape while still warm dramatically increases longevity — especially important in Dubai's humid climate.
UAE Humidity Tip
To make curls last all day in Dubai: apply Olaplex No.6 before styling, let each curl cool completely before touching, and finish with a light-hold hairspray. Avoid touching your hair throughout the day — the oils from your hands weaken curl structure.
