Even the Ocean Is Jealous of Selena Gomez’s Long, Brunette Waves — See the Photos

‘Tis the season for beachy waves! The undone, messy, casual hairstyle has long been a classic for day-to-day wear and red carpets, but they really shine come summertime, when you can actually get the look from hanging out in water or mimic that just-left-the-pool vibe with wave sprays. We need to know which styling products were behind Selena Gomez‘s new beach waves, because they’re so good even the ocean is jealous.

Gomez wore the waves to a Rare Beauty event to celebrate the launch of the brand’s new True to Myself Pressed Finishing Powder. Hairstylist Marissa Marino, who often works with the actor/singer/beauty brand founder, parted Gomez’s long, brunette hair in the center and styled it in perfectly imperfect tousled waves. They’re not uniform throughout, which is part of the magic; some are subtle bends, while others are nearly loose ringlets. Though the majority of Gomez’s hair is a smoky espresso color, she’s got a few micro-highlights woven throughout to pick up the light and add dimension.
