Ear-Level Big Wave
Thick, sharply defined waves starting at ear level, only two or three full bends over the whole length.
What makes this look work
The shape comes mostly from:
- repeating S-shaped waves
- movement from the s-wave
- a dark brown colour
Before you choose it
- Upkeep · Medium upkeep
- Expect a few minutes of styling most days to keep the shape reading the way it does here.
- At the salon
- A perm (heat or cold) may be involved — worth discussing your hair's condition first.
How any reference lands depends on your texture, density and daily routine — that conversation is what your stylist is for.

“I like the s-wave and the long silhouette. Can we talk about how this would sit with my texture and my routine?”
