This semi-long hairstyle is pure sunshine and good vibes! The tousled waves are perfect for women who want to look beautiful with that coveted "I woke up like this" aesthetic. But here's the secret: achieving this perfectly imperfect look actually requires some technique and the right cut to begin with.

The length falls at the shoulders with long, flowing layers that create the most gorgeous movement. The layers are key here because they prevent the hair from looking too heavy or triangular, instead creating beautiful cascading waves that seem to move with their own rhythm. The cut is designed to work with your natural hair texture, enhancing whatever wave pattern you already have.

The color is absolutely stunning: a rich, warm blonde with incredible depth and dimension. Those golden tones catch the light, creating highlights and shadows that move with the waves. It's like having your own personal sunshine wherever you go! The color looks natural and sun-kissed, never harsh or overly processed.

Styling this look is all about embracing imperfection. We're using texturizing products that enhance your natural wave pattern without making the hair stiff. A little sea salt spray, some lightweight mousse, and either scrunching while air-drying or using a diffuser to gently encourage those waves. The result is hair that looks like you just spent a perfect day at the beach, with waves that are touchable, soft, and full of life and movement.
