Grown-Out Loose Patches
A perm several months old: wave survives only in patches, with straight uncurled runs between them.
LongLoose wave
What makes this look work
The shape comes mostly from:
- a salon perm doing most of the work
- movement from the loose wave
- a caramel colour
Before you choose it
- Upkeep · Low upkeep
- Day to day this is mostly wash-and-go, though your own texture has the final say.
- At the salon
- A perm (heat or cold) may be involved — worth discussing your hair's condition first.
- Colouring is part of this look.
How any reference lands depends on your texture, density and daily routine — that conversation is what your stylist is for.

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