Let’s be real, if you’re searching “how to get waves in one day,” you’re either in a rush or trying to hit a fresh look fast. 🌀
Here’s the truth: you can’t get full 360 waves in a single day… but you can start the wave process and lay a solid foundation that looks wavy by the end of the night.
If you follow this step-by-step strategy, you’ll have your hair looking trained, fresh, and wave-ready in less than 24 hours. 👇
✂️ Step 1: Get the Right Haircut
You can’t get waves without a fresh cut ,period.
Ask your barber for a low, even cut using a #1.5 guard. It should be short enough to train, but not bald.
💈 Bonus: Request a taper or fade to keep the sides sharp and bring more attention to your crown.
Step 2: Wash & Condition Your Hair
Clean hair waves up better.
Use a sulfate-free shampoo and a rich conditioner. This softens the hair and makes it easier to train.
After washing, towel-dry gently and apply a leave-in conditioner or curl-enhancing product while your hair is still damp.
Step 3: Brush Like You Mean It
Now it’s time to put in work.
Start a 30–45 minute brush session using a soft or medium brush. Focus on brushing from the crown outward in all directions.
Make sure your angles are consistent.
Use a handheld mirror to track your form.
Brush in silence or throw on a motivational playlist, just stay locked in.
🧠 Pro Tip: The longer the session, the deeper the wave set. Don’t rush this.
🧢 Step 4: Put on a Silky Durag and Wave Cap
Once your hair is laid, you need to lock it in.
Apply a silky durag to compress your hair and hold the wave pattern.
Then layer a compression wave cap on top for added hold.
Sleep in it overnight and when you take it off in the morning, you’ll see the beginnings of a wave pattern taking shape. 🌊
Final Thoughts
No ,you won’t get elite waves in one day. But you can get your first wave set locked in, and with consistency, you’ll be swimming within a few weeks.
If you’re serious about waving, stop rushing and start brushing.
