Looking every bit the epitome of ethereal beauty, the 16-year-old Elle Fanning paired her fairy tale Alexander McQueen dress with rosy cheeks, barely there makeup, glittery eyes, and a head full of romantic waves at the Maleficent Japan Premiere held in Tokyo a few days ago. This easy to recreate look is all about soft waves that look and feel completely natural.

To get Fanning’s romantic waves for yourself, simply follow these 5 easy steps.

This lightweight lotion is suitable for all hair types and reduces friction and overheating up to 450 degrees for a shiny, controlled finish.
2. Roughly dry your hair until it is halfway dry, and then blow dry the rest using a large ceramic brush.
3. Take 1 inch sections of hair, and starting mid-shaft, wrap the hair around a 1.5 inch curling iron. If you’re in need of a curling iron, the Amika 4 Piece Interchangeable Barrel Curler Set is a great option as it includes four clip-free barrels for smooth curls and waves of any size and style.
4. When you’ve curled all of your hair, flip it over and shake out for a soft, natural wave.
5. Finish with a lightweight hairspray to hold.
