How to: One-shoulder wave

Will you go left, or will you go right ? Take a cue from celebs like Priyanka Chopra, Sonam Kapoor, Penelope Cruz and Katrina Kaif who demonstrate the flirty one shoulder waves look, for us. The best part: it’s doable, no matter what your length. We got you the details on how you can the look in three easy steps.

Blow
Blow-dry hair upside down, then flip back and blow-dry some more while using a round brush to get the smoothness. To give this look a boost, part hair in the direction opposite to the way you want it to lie, suggests Kristin Ess, Whitney Port’s hairstylist.

Curl
Next, curl hair in one-inch sections, advises Jamal Hammadi, who gave Selena Gomez the gorgeous waves. If yours is shoulder-length or longer, opt for a one-inch-barrel curling iron (smaller if your hair is shorter). Starting midway down each section, wind hair around the iron.

Tease
Tease the crown to keep the top from looking flat. To finish, swing it all over one shoulder, and use hairspray. Don’t worry about being too precise, adds Hammadi, “Imperfection makes it sexy.”
