AI-generated consultation reference — not a photo of a real client.
Waist Stacked-Rod Ripple S
A uniform repeating ripple running the full waist length, closer to a rhythm than to a wave.
What makes this look work
The shape comes mostly from:
- a wave perm set through the lengths
- movement from the s-wave
- see-through fringe
- a dark brown colour
Before you choose it
- Upkeep · Higher upkeep
- This shape rewards regular styling — the reference finish leans on it.
- 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 extra-long silhouette, and the see-through fringe. Can we talk about how this would sit with my texture and my routine?”
