The Ultimate Guide to Short Wavy Hairstyles

Waves are the talk of the time, well, quite literally – be it the Hallyu Wave of the East (all the music maniacs out there, I know you got the reference – wink, wink!), or simply the soft and bouncy waves seen on our favorite Hollywood celebrities’ hair. Aah! Falling somewhere between the sleek-straight and over-the-top ‘curly’, wavy hair is something that one wishes to be a proud owner of. Reason? Well, simply because it ain’t boring like the pointed straight, or super-unmanageable like curls – I’m sure you guys will agree to this point! Other than that, wavy hair needs minimum care and every tousle becomes a style. Remember the classic grunge appeal a ‘bed-hair’ imparts? Heh…Heh…

But, yes, obviously a but, everybody wants a certain visible change to their regular hairstyle regardless of their hair type. Don’t you? So, what are you waiting for? Try opting for one style or the other from the fifty different ones presented to you (Yes, you read it right! FIFTY).
