Ballroom Hairstyles | How to Create the Classic Gel Wave | Part 3

Ballroom Hairstyles | How to Create the Classic Gel Wave
Hello and welcome back to part 3 of ballroom hairstyles “How to create the classic GEL WAVE”
In the previous two ballroom hairstyles videos, I covered the following ballroom hairstyles;
"how to create the ultimate high shine" and the second video was
"how to create the classic low bun".

Ballroom hairstyle #2 - The Classic Low Bun • Ballroom Hairstyle | H...
Hopefully, you will enjoy this ballroom hairstyle as much as you did the last two!
Today's video is all about how to create a classic gel wave which is currently on trend - but actually quite difficult to do.
As always I am grateful for a thumbs it truly helps.
Ideally part above the middle of the left eyebrow and back 5-7cm. I use my middle finger as a guide, then part with a diagonal line from the middle of the right eyebrow to meet the other parting at the back so its kind of triangular in shape.
There are some important points to note to perfect this ballroom hairstyle:
- the gel wave needs to cover the hairline, the closer towards the brow the more dramatic the look
- Try to do the wave in one go then perfect it after otherwise, you will end up with problems.
- Providing it hasn’t started veto set If it goes wrong, start the gel wave again, often the more you try to fix it the worse it gets
- If the gel wave has started to set you will have to wash it all out and start again so lay the gel wave down and perfect afterwards
- When you are doing a gel wave, especially if you are a beginner, do hair before the makeup up because if you mess it up at least you can wash the section out without destroying the makeup.
- Make sure you parting lines are neat, tidy and straight.
Products used to create this ballroom hairstyle - the gel wave:

Great tutorial!! I'm looking for a video on how to do a low bun while having interest and fullness in the front with layered hair. So many of the tutorials feature hair that is mostly 1 long length. Thanks!!

Half up ballroom hairstyle

[@GTK-1]

Great tutorial. Would be good to see how you get all that product out???

[@daniela_divine_style]

Ohhhh good question! Soak in the shower, wash with a deep cleaning shampoo. Follow with a GOOD conditioner and I like to follow with a deep repair mask which I leave on for 3mins and rinse then before I blow dry the hair I spray in a leave in conditioner...perhaps I will do a video 👍🏻

[@FlorenciaSantaMaria]

Love thisss! I tried to do it but I can’t get the wave set on the head...maybe the products are the problem?

[@daniela_divine_style]

What products did you use? I use silhouette gel but other similar gels work. Are you based in the UK? X

[@kanchanroy7864]

Very nice..

[@daniela_divine_style]

Thanks You! I appreciate your feedback! 😊

[@lisas6490]

I tried this out as it was the first video I could really follow, thank you for that! The only problem I have is that after laying down the first wave, my strand of hair suddenly becomes really slim as the strand kind of glues to itself... How do you keep it that broad?

[@daniela_divine_style]

I’m so happy you find the video helpful:) a lot depends on the hair but maybe try a thicker section so change the angle of the hair so it’s more forward - let me know how you get on x

[@wendydarling3747]

Great tutorial! Thanks! But I am dying to know- where did you get your double sided smoothing comb? I can't find anything like that in the US and I have looked everywhere!

[@daniela_divine_style]

...I have to bulk order them! I ship to the states if you can’t get them and the shipping isn’t that expensive depending on how quickly you want them? I sent 10 brushes to a last in the states yesterday x

[@shaoyunguan310]

What glue can you use to glue the waves down? Thanks 😊😊

[@daniela_divine_style]

A water soluble glue. I use Elmers
