If you have straight chin-length hair and tired of wearing bobs and shags, you can take a break and wear waves in your hair. Soft waves soften your face and they can be styled in a variety of ways. If you are wearing waves, you need to refresh them every few weeks so that your style will look neat and beautiful. You can also add side bangs to your waves for extra flair.

If you have medium-length hair, soft curls are a good choice. You would wash your hair and then put in large rollers before air drying your hair. When a few hours have passed, you want to take the rollers out and style the hair how you want.
