Casual Long Wavy Hairstyles
A casual long wavy hairstyle can be described as free-flowing, soft, full, with lots of body, easy-going, and one that falls into place on its own. These hairstyles can vary from shoulder length graduated layers, to heavy one length looks, and even messy uniform layer cuts. When waves are natural or even artificial (permed hair), casual long wavy hairstyles are quick to create because they fall into shape naturally. However, waves created with curling devices and heat appliances require more time and styling products for hold. Some techniques you might like to try are simple things like scrunch drying with your head tilted. The long length of these hairstyles enables you to pull your hair back out of the way for a quick change, or to even dress it up more formally.

Rachel Bilson
Rachel Bilson, winner of the award Choice Movie Actress: Action Adventure for her role in Jumper, chose a more casual hairstyle for TC08. Her tresses were styled as natural looking waves and were left out to flow over her shoulder. But you know what? It was a pity her roots were more obvious than the rest of her foxy color (maybe she wasn't expecting to win something so didn't bother to spruce up too much).
