Tools You Will Need Curling Wand Flat Iron Hair Spray Heat Protectant Spray Hair Clips Texturizing Spray Method 1: Using a Curling Wand Start with clean, dry hair and apply a heat protectant spray. Section your hair into manageable parts and clip them up. Take a small section of hair and wrap it around the curling wand, holding it for about 10-15 seconds. Release the curl and let it cool before moving on to the next section. Once all sections are curled, gently tousle your hair with your fingers and finish with a texturizing spray. Method 2: Using a Flat Iron Apply heat protectant spray to your hair and section it off. Take a small section of hair, clamp the flat iron at the roots, and twist it away from your face. Pull the flat iron down to the ends of your hair while maintaining the twist. Continue this process until all sections are styled. Finish with a light hair spray to hold your waves in place. Method 3: Braiding for Heat-Free Waves Start with damp hair and apply a texturizing spray. Divide your hair into sections and braid each section loosely. Allow the braids to dry completely, either overnight or for a few hours. Once dry, undo the braids and gently separate the waves with your fingers. Finish with a light mist of hair spray for added hold. With these methods at your disposal, you'll be well-equipped to create beautiful beachy waves that turn heads and complement your style. Remember, practice makes perfect, so don’t hesitate to experiment with these techniques to find what works best for you!

I'd like to start by first thanking you for stopping by and allowing me to introduce myself. My name is Windy Gatlin and I am the proud owner of Cura Salon and Spa. My journey to this point in my life and career has not always been easy but I wouldn't have it any other way. I moved here to Portland In high school from Los Angeles and soon after I was blessed with my two beautiful children. I spent the majority of their younger years working various retail and management jobs to support my young family, but with a strong desire to work closely with people to help them reach their Hair and Skin goals. This led me to enroll in Cosmetology School in my late twenties. And I never looked back! Since then I have lived a full life with ups, downs, wins and some loses, major illness and being blessed to regain my health and strength to come back stronger and better than ever! It has brought me great joy over the years to connect with people, build relationships, gain trust and help my beautiful community of clients over the years to look and feel their very best. It has been an honor to serve you and support you. I look forward to many more years and many more new faces and relationships. The future is Bright. Let's Shine Together!!! All my best, Windy
