From one perpetually straight and limp-haired girl to another, it can be difficult to achieve bountiful, bouncy, gorgeous curls no matter what the weather. I've been sporting beachy waves for most of the summer, and it's only now been achievable thanks to some brand-new products from Paul Mitchell. The line is called "Curls" and while they are geared toward solving the dilemmas associated with naturally curly-endowed hair, I'm here to show you that those of us lacking natural curl to our hair can benefit from curl-boosting products like these.

From now on, on the first of each month from now until December, I will be showing you how to achieve curls that last, ranging from barely-there beachy waves with volume to spiral curls to even no-heat curls! I look forward to sharing my curl journey with you all in the coming months!

Read on for my tutorial on how to achieve simple beachy blown-out waves with nothing more than the Paul Mitchell Curls products and a blow dryer.
