The look is having a moment. Proof: At the spring 2010 shows, Versace showed rumpled curls, while the hair at Proenza Schouler had a beachy texture. More proof: In the October issue of Allure, hairstylist Luigi Murenu—a runway regular—created six different versions of waves and curls in the story “Making Waves.” Allure editors are no exception when it comes to wave love. These are our current product faves:

Privé Curl Activating Créme plus L’Oréal Professionnel Textureline Infinium Hairspray 2: “I scrunch two squirts of this product into wet, clean hair, and then air-dry. The cream has a bit of tackiness to it, so it gives my waves texture and hold. Once my hair is mostly dry, I mist the L’Oréal Professionnel around the crown, lifting and tossing the roots with my fingers as I spray for nice, non-helmet-head volume.” —Amy Keller Laird, beauty director

Top 11 Tricks for Gorgeous Hair Everyday.

Bumble and Bumble Calming Creme for Coarse Curls: "It gets rid of the ugly flyaways and keeps my curls intact without leaving my hair looking crunchy or greasy.” —Alyssa Kolsky Hertzig, beauty news editor

Blow Wave Maker Light Twisting Lotion: “This is my all-time favorite. It’s a serum-y gel that gives the perfect amount of hold--I can run my fingers though my hair. It works with my natural wavy texture to get it to go the extra mile to perfect beachy waves.” —Kayleigh Donahue, editorial assistant

Living Proof Wave Shaping, Curl Defining No Frizz Styling Spray: “I spritz this all over my dry, chemically straightened hair before curling it. Since it’s an anti-humidity spray, it creates waves that are frizz-free. It’s also lightweight and dries fast so my hair doesn’t sizzle under the curling iron.” —Jessica Prince, editorial assistant
