You can do that by simply scrunching your hair if you already have natural wave. If you want more waviness, you can also braid your hair or twist it up in a bun until it dries. Then simply shake out your hair and ta-da!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_223150\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-223150\" style=\"width: 1058px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-223150 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41.jpg\" alt=\"beachy waves tutorial\" width=\"1058\" height=\"1270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41.jpg 1058w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41-125x150.jpg 125w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41-250x300.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41-768x922.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/kelsey_diprima41-853x1024.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1058px) 100vw, 1058px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-223150\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via @kelsey_diprima<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>(Side note: If you can&#8217;t help buying cute shoes, dress, AND hair products, check out\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bumbleandbumble.com\/product\/19061\/221\/style\/texture-sprays\/surf-spray\/surf?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Frederic-Fekkai-Marine-Beachcomber-Conditioner\/dp\/B001VJ5ZA4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fekkai &#8216;Beachcomber&#8217; Leave-In Conditioner<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigelowchemists.com\/kusco-murphy-beach-hair.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">C.O.
