From subtle tousled textures to glamorous Hollywood waves, a flat iron is your secret weapon for versatile, salon-worthy styles. Lena’s tools are designed to blend performance and protection, making it easy to create stunning waves without compromising hair health. Here’s how to achieve three popular wave styles with your Lena flat iron—no curling wand needed!
Prep: Protect & Prime Your Hair
- Heat Protectant: Always start with Lena Heat Shield Spray to guard against damage. Choose a temperature that suits your hair type (fine hair? Low heat; thick hair? Medium settings) for minimal stress.
- Texture Spray: Lena Volume Boost Texture Spray adds grip, definition, and long-lasting bounce without heaviness—perfect for fine or straight hair that needs staying power.
- Mousse (Optional): For extra volume, apply Lena Root Lift Mousse to damp roots, then rough-dry before styling.
3 Easy Wave Methods with Your Lena Flat Iron
1. Bubble Waves (Vintage Glam or Effortless Tousled)
Ideal for retro vibes or “just woke up like this” texture.
- Take a small hair section, clamp the Lena flat iron near the root, and curve the hair under.
- Move down 1 inch, clamp again, and curve upward. Alternate “under-over” motions until you reach the ends.
- Finish with a light mist of texture spray for soft hold.
2. Flat Iron Bends (Customizable Bounce or Relaxed Waves)
Create loose, beachy waves by twisting your wrist as you glide.
- Hold the iron vertically, clamp a root section, and twist away from your face to bend the hair backward.
- Pull the iron down to the ends. For undone waves, alternate twisting toward and away from your face in different sections.
- Let curls cool, then run fingers through them for effortless texture.
3. Pull-Down Curls (Tight Waves to Soft Beachy Sways)
Perfect for starting with defined curls that relax into natural waves.
- Hold the iron horizontally, clamp 2 inches from the roots, and rotate it 180° under, wrapping hair over the iron.
- Glide straight down gently (no tight clamping!) to avoid stiffness.
- Let curls set, then brush lightly with fingers—gravity will soften them into envy-worthy beach waves.

Final Touches & Troubleshooting

- Boost longevity: Sleep with waves in a silk bonnet or pineapple updo.
- Practice makes perfect: Start with larger sections if you’re new, and adjust as you get comfortable.
