our award winning tool for the easiest beach waves

Do you strive for that “lived-in” look featuring textured waves and a little bit of bed head? Well, we have exactly what you need to create this. In fact, we’ve even won some awards (you know, nbd) for creating a product that does exactly that. Keep reading to learn more about how to achieve this look and the one award winning hot tool we have created to make this look easy AF.

 

high tide deep waver

Recently, we have won TWO AWARDS for our high tide deep waver; the tool was announced as Allure’s Best in Beauty in the waver category. This is one of the most coveted awards in the industry, and we couldn’t be prouder of our team! Additionally, we just won Refinery29's Beauty Innovator Awards in the Hair Tools category!

so, what makes it so special?

Our exclusive design + mold allows for crease-free waves on all hair types and textures. What also makes this tool so unique is how EASY it is to use. Hight tide features a cool tip for easy maneuvering, as well as negative ion technology that seals your cuticle for smooth hair. But, don’t take our word for it.

some of our favorite quotes:

“Ever since I tried the newly launched amika high tide deep waver a few weeks ago, I have been preaching the gospel of my new hair obsession (just ask my coworkers). Prompted or not, I would tell anyone who even glanced at my hair, ‘It’s so easy to use—and I’m garbage with hair tools!’”

“Because of the extra-large size, it gives me big, loose waves without a crinkle in sight. It doesn’t look as though I’ve done anything to it; in fact, several coworkers asked me if that was my natural hair all along.”

here’s what our customers have to say:

“I love this waver! I’ve NEVER been able to curl my hair on my own, and this works perfectly for my long hair without wasting too much time! Did my hair in less than 15 mins and it stayed the whole night!” – missdiorcherie

“Just WOW! This Deep Waver is fantastic! The adjustable temperature is an amazing feature and it heats up super-fast! It’s so easy to use and doesn’t damage your hair at all! Not to mention the curls last me days without having to touch any waves up! I would highly recommend this to anyone! The Beachy waves are just so gorgeous! Specially for the summer!” – jlh3

“Love the way this product gives my thin hair volume. Can't believe how fast it makes the wave. It's also very lightweight and easy to hold. I recommend this highly.” -mammamaria25
