Finger Wave Short Hair

What Is Finger Wave Hair Wig?

Finger waves are a hairstyle that involves shaping the hair into a smooth S-shaped pattern, usually close to the scalp, and is suitable for short hair that is relaxed, fine-textured, or has a looser curl pattern.

How to Do Finger Waves On Short Hair?

1. Wash Your Short Hair

Before creating this finger wave hairstyle, you must start with clean, moisturized short hair to ensure that you avoid stains and gel adhesion when styling your hair later.

2. Apply Mousse Or Gel

When it comes to shaping your finger waves, use mousse or gel. If you choose the former, cover your head with a layer of high-quality mousse so you have enough glide to create waves without tangling or snagging your hair. You may need to reapply at any time.

3. Shape Your Hair

Use a trimming comb and a rat tail comb to help create the S shape, followed by a rat tail comb to help flatten and keep the waves in place, and a cutting comb to create the S shape. The separation distance is approximately the width of your index finger. Comb forward once and back again, facing opposite directions; repeat this as many times as needed to maintain the S shape. Continue using this technique all over your head to the nape of your neck.

4. Set Up Your  Finger Waves

Once your waves are perfected, it's time to blow-dry your hair. Use a handheld blow dryer and diffuser to make sure your hair stays in place. However, if time permits, you should wrap your hair with a styling band (like this black styling band from Graham Beauty) and sit under a hooded blow dryer to fully style each wave. The length of time you need to sit under the blow dryer depends on the thickness and length of your hair.
