Description:
This 22mm triple-barrel hair waver creates beach waves quickly and with minimal effort, giving both long and short hair a textured, mermaid-inspired finish. It heats in around 20 seconds and offers two temperature settings so you can choose a gentler 180°C for fine hair or 210°C for thicker hair, making styling faster and more consistent.
Key Points
The three-barrel design means you clamp each section rather than twisting, which speeds up styling and reduces handling of hot plates. For many users this translates to a five to ten minute styling routine for a full head of waves, so it works well when you need a quicker routine for everyday looks or special events. 🙂
Safety features include an anti-skid handle and an anti-scald top to minimise accidental contact with hot surfaces. The tool comes with heat-resistant gloves to protect the hand that holds the hair, which can be reassuring when working near the roots and scalp. The device is aimed at versatility, claiming suitability for both long and short hair and for different hair textures. ⚖️
Some limitations to consider are temperature range and styling technique. The unit offers two fixed temperatures rather than a wide, incremental control, so very fine hair may require extra care at 180°C according to the manufacturer. Also, as with any triple-barrel waver, the most pronounced results will appear on medium to long lengths of hair.

Usage Recommendations
Work with dry hair for best results, and divide hair into manageable sections before clamping to ensure even waves across the length. Hold each section for approximately five to ten seconds as suggested by the manufacturer, then release gently to keep the wave shape intact. For extra definition, alternate the angle of the clamp as you move along the section, and finish sections with a cool blast from a hair dryer or a light mist of setting spray to increase longevity. 🌊
For short hair, use smaller sections and shorter hold times to avoid overly tight crimps. For thicker hair, 210°C can help form waves more quickly, but monitor heat exposure to avoid unnecessary damage. If you prefer softer, less defined texture, brush through waves lightly with fingers once cool to loosen the pattern and create a more natural look.
