20 Haircuts for Showing Off Long Wavy Hair

Winter is in full bitch mode, and for many of us, that means freezing cold temperatures and a whole lot of gray on our horizons. The season has Grim Reapered everything around us, so we’re doing what self-respecting, warm-blooded creature would do: day-dreaming about tropical locales. In our heads, we’re seeing hot-sand beaches, crystal-blue waters, swaying palm trees, and endless rounds of strawberry daiquiris—obviously.

All of which also makes us think of the best vacation hairstyle there is: dreamy beach waves. But hey, why not bring some of that fantasy to life and rock those gorgeous waves now? (We also recommend making those daiquiris happen, but that’s a post for a different blog.) No style is better for showing off a beautiful wavy mane than long hair. The length allows the waves to do their thing and make a serious impact. To see some incredibly beautiful long tresses, scroll down and check out these 20 photos celebrating long wavy hair in all its glory.
