So if you have curly hair, you&#8217;re probably wondering where to begin? It all starts with a great haircut.

This means curly hair haircuts are not one-size-fits-all. Here are some he recommends:\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Curly Shag Cuts<\/strong>: The &#8217;70s shag cut is mega popular right now, and if you have curly hair, you should definitely consider it. &#8220;Shag cuts with lots of layers are popular as they add volume and movement, making curls look more dynamic,&#8221; says Ford. They can also to remove bulk, which can be really helpful for those with curly hair looking to avoid a pyramid shape.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Pixie Cuts:<\/strong> &#8220;For a bold, low-maintenance style, curly pixie cuts are in, showcasing texture while being easy to manage.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_14-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Bobs<\/strong>: From the French bob to the bubble bob, short haircuts are all the rage right now. &#8220;Both short and long bobs are in style. They work well with curls, especially when paired with layers to reduce bulk and add shape,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;A longer bob with some layers can enhance curls, adding movement and preventing a triangle shape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Undercut and Tapered Cuts: <\/strong>&#8220;These styles are favored for their edgy, modern look, particularly for those with thicker curls who want to remove some weight.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_20-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Extensions and longer styles:<\/strong> Having curls doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t wear extensions or long, billowy hairstyles. &#8220;If you have curly hair and opt to add length or volume with hair extensions, you need to make sure you\u2019re choosing a haircut that blends your natural hair and extensions seamlessly and maintains a natural look,&#8221; says Invisible Bead Extensions founder McKenzie Turley.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_22-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Ask your stylist for a layered cut to ensure your natural curls and extensions blend well together. Adding soft layers will help create movement and volume, while face framing layers can highlight your natural features and provide a polished look. Scissors are the best way of cutting curly extensions, and your stylist should avoid using a razor for better control and more realistic results.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_24-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Should Curly Hair Be Layered or Not? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Adding layers helps distribute volume, giving curls more definition and preventing them from becoming too heavy or weighed down,&#8221; says Ford. If you have thick curly hair, than layers are probably going to be really beneficial for you. If you have thin and fine curly hair, layers can make your hair look sparse and even stringy.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> To avoid this, it&#8217;s really important to find a stylist that specializes in curly hair that can help you decide what&#8217;s best for your hair type and texture. Another really helpful tip is too keep your hair type and texture in mind when searching for inspo pictures. Luckily Instagram is great for this.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you&#8217;re opting for curly extensions, layers are especially important to achieve the perfect and natural-looking blend.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_33-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Ask Your Stylist For <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Curly hair almost universally tends to behave better if it&#8217;s allowed to grow longer. That&#8217;s because longer hair weighs down the curls resulting in less &#8220;pouf.&#8221; But curly hair can actually look amazing short, provided you get the right cut.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you wear your hair curly and let it air dry,\u00a0you should\u00a0inform your stylist so she can keep the layers on top of your head longer. This is because curly hair air dries tighter than it would if you blow dry it daily using a diffuser. This small adaptation to your hairstyle can make a big impact.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Ford recommends trying a round cut, which provides &#8220;a rounded shape that keeps curls even all around, helping to enhance the curl pattern and create a balanced look.&#8221; Or a deva cut, which is a &#8220;technique where curls are cut dry, allowing the stylist to shape each curl individually. This method enhances the natural curl pattern and reduces frizz.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_40-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> It&#8217;s a common misconception that when you have curls, you can&#8217;t also enjoy bangs. With few exceptions, almost anyone can wear bangs. While short curly bangs may look a bit dated, a few face-framing bangs can&#8217;t hurt. Layers can also make a huge difference with curly hair. Stylist Nick Arrojo suggests cutting in long layers to allow your curls to move. &#8220;You want the curls to be full of spring and life,&#8221; he says.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_42-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-subheading mntl-sc-block-subheading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-subheading__text\"> What to Avoid <\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_45-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for what to avoid in order you save yourself from a haircut catastrophe, Ford recommends staying away from short layers and razor cuts. &#8220;Although there is now the trend of razor cutting for more texture in hair, avoid this when you have curly hair. Razor cuts can cause additional frizz and split ends, especially for thicker curls, as they can roughen up the cuticle.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_47-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for short layers, he says those can lead to frizz and excessive volume that&#8217;s difficult to manage. Another one to be wary of, depending on your hair type, is blunt cuts. &#8220;Avoid any haircuts that are straight, blunt cuts as they can create a boxy, unflattering shape in curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_49-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Turley agrees, adding &#8220;A blunt cut with straight-across ends will make it difficult for extensions to blend with curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_51-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Post-Cut Styling <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_52-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> With the right cut, styling curly hair can be easy. If you dry your hair, be sure to use a diffuser. But still, keep in mind that the best thing you can do is to let those curls air dry. Simply cup and squeeze curls in the palm of your hand every 15 minutes until your hair has dried. While you&#8217;re doing this, remember that all curly hair needs intense moisturizing. Avoid products that contain alcohol, which can dry out your curls, and deep condition once a week. Ford recommends investing in a good curl cream like Sachajuan&#8217;s Curl Treatment, which minimizes frizz and repairs damaged ends.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"loc

This means curly hair haircuts are not one-size-fits-all. Here are some he recommends:\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Curly Shag Cuts<\/strong>: The &#8217;70s shag cut is mega popular right now, and if you have curly hair, you should definitely consider it. &#8220;Shag cuts with lots of layers are popular as they add volume and movement, making curls look more dynamic,&#8221; says Ford. They can also to remove bulk, which can be really helpful for those with curly hair looking to avoid a pyramid shape.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Pixie Cuts:<\/strong> &#8220;For a bold, low-maintenance style, curly pixie cuts are in, showcasing texture while being easy to manage.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_14-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Bobs<\/strong>: From the French bob to the bubble bob, short haircuts are all the rage right now. &#8220;Both short and long bobs are in style. They work well with curls, especially when paired with layers to reduce bulk and add shape,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;A longer bob with some layers can enhance curls, adding movement and preventing a triangle shape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Undercut and Tapered Cuts: <\/strong>&#8220;These styles are favored for their edgy, modern look, particularly for those with thicker curls who want to remove some weight.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_20-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Extensions and longer styles:<\/strong> Having curls doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t wear extensions or long, billowy hairstyles. &#8220;If you have curly hair and opt to add length or volume with hair extensions, you need to make sure you\u2019re choosing a haircut that blends your natural hair and extensions seamlessly and maintains a natural look,&#8221; says Invisible Bead Extensions founder McKenzie Turley.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_22-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Ask your stylist for a layered cut to ensure your natural curls and extensions blend well together. Adding soft layers will help create movement and volume, while face framing layers can highlight your natural features and provide a polished look. Scissors are the best way of cutting curly extensions, and your stylist should avoid using a razor for better control and more realistic results.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_24-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Should Curly Hair Be Layered or Not? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Adding layers helps distribute volume, giving curls more definition and preventing them from becoming too heavy or weighed down,&#8221; says Ford. If you have thick curly hair, than layers are probably going to be really beneficial for you. If you have thin and fine curly hair, layers can make your hair look sparse and even stringy.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> To avoid this, it&#8217;s really important to find a stylist that specializes in curly hair that can help you decide what&#8217;s best for your hair type and texture. Another really helpful tip is too keep your hair type and texture in mind when searching for inspo pictures. Luckily Instagram is great for this.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you&#8217;re opting for curly extensions, layers are especially important to achieve the perfect and natural-looking blend.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_33-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Ask Your Stylist For <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Curly hair almost universally tends to behave better if it&#8217;s allowed to grow longer. That&#8217;s because longer hair weighs down the curls resulting in less &#8220;pouf.&#8221; But curly hair can actually look amazing short, provided you get the right cut.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you wear your hair curly and let it air dry,\u00a0you should\u00a0inform your stylist so she can keep the layers on top of your head longer. This is because curly hair air dries tighter than it would if you blow dry it daily using a diffuser. This small adaptation to your hairstyle can make a big impact.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Ford recommends trying a round cut, which provides &#8220;a rounded shape that keeps curls even all around, helping to enhance the curl pattern and create a balanced look.&#8221; Or a deva cut, which is a &#8220;technique where curls are cut dry, allowing the stylist to shape each curl individually. This method enhances the natural curl pattern and reduces frizz.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_40-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> It&#8217;s a common misconception that when you have curls, you can&#8217;t also enjoy bangs. With few exceptions, almost anyone can wear bangs. While short curly bangs may look a bit dated, a few face-framing bangs can&#8217;t hurt. Layers can also make a huge difference with curly hair. Stylist Nick Arrojo suggests cutting in long layers to allow your curls to move. &#8220;You want the curls to be full of spring and life,&#8221; he says.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_42-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-subheading mntl-sc-block-subheading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-subheading__text\"> What to Avoid <\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_45-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for what to avoid in order you save yourself from a haircut catastrophe, Ford recommends staying away from short layers and razor cuts. &#8220;Although there is now the trend of razor cutting for more texture in hair, avoid this when you have curly hair. Razor cuts can cause additional frizz and split ends, especially for thicker curls, as they can roughen up the cuticle.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_47-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for short layers, he says those can lead to frizz and excessive volume that&#8217;s difficult to manage. Another one to be wary of, depending on your hair type, is blunt cuts. &#8220;Avoid any haircuts that are straight, blunt cuts as they can create a boxy, unflattering shape in curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_49-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Turley agrees, adding &#8220;A blunt cut with straight-across ends will make it difficult for extensions to blend with curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_51-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Post-Cut Styling <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_52-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> With the right cut, styling curly hair can be easy. If you dry your hair, be sure to use a diffuser. But still, keep in mind that the best thing you can do is to let those curls air dry. Simply cup and squeeze curls in the palm of your hand every 15 minutes until your hair has dried. While you&#8217;re doing this, remember that all curly hair needs intense moisturizing. Avoid products that contain alcohol, which can dry out your curls, and deep condition once a week. Ford recommends investing in a good curl cream like Sachajuan&#8217;s Curl Treatment, which minimizes frizz and repairs damaged ends.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"loc article-post-content\">\n<div id=\"beauty-breadcrumbs--chips_1-0\" class=\"comp beauty-breadcrumbs--chips mntl-universal-breadcrumbs--chips mntl-block\">\n<div id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__read-more_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__read-more mntl-text-block text-title-100\">Read more:<\/div>\n<ul id=\"mntl-universal-breadcrumbs_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-universal-breadcrumbs mntl-block text-label-300 breadcrumbs\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<li id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__item_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__item mntl-block\"><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Hair<\/span><\/li>\n<li id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__item_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__item mntl-block\"><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Hair Type<\/span><\/li>\n<li id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__item_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__item mntl-block\"><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Curly Hair<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"loc article-content\">\n<div id=\"article__broad-video-jw_1-0\" class=\"comp article__broad-video-jw mntl-jwplayer-broad mntl-block is-hidden\" data-pixel-depth=\"100\">\n<div id=\"mntl-jwplayer-broad__title_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-jwplayer-broad__title mntl-block\"><button id=\"mntl-jwplayer-broad__title-icon--close_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-jwplayer-broad__title-icon--close mntl-block text-label-100\" data-click-tracked=\"false\"><span id=\"mntl-text-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-text-block\">Close<\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-block article__body right-rail\">\n<figure id=\"mntl-universal-primary-image_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-universal-primary-image primary-image\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<div class=\"primary-image__media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/curly-hair-1-f58b422b0bdd466d9c4aa730b180605c.webp\" width=\"1155\" height=\"866\" alt=\"Person with long curly hair looking toward the camera\" class=\" primary-image__image mntl-primary-image--blurry\" title=\"curly-hair-1-f58b422b0bdd466d9c4aa730b180605c\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/curly-hair-1-f58b422b0bdd466d9c4aa730b180605c.webp\" width=\"1155\" height=\"866\" class=\"loaded primary-img--noscript primary-image__image mntl-primary-image--blurry\" alt=\"Person with long curly hair looking toward the camera\" title=\"curly-hair-1-f58b422b0bdd466d9c4aa730b180605c\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"primary-image__figcap_1-0\" class=\"comp primary-image__figcap mntl-figure-caption figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Stocksy<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-page_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-page mntl-block\" data-sc-sticky-offset=\"125\" data-sc-ad-label-height=\"16\" data-sc-ad-track-spacing=\"100\" data-sc-min-track-height=\"250\" data-sc-max-track-height=\"600\" data-sc-breakpoint=\"50em\" data-sc-load-immediate=\"5\" data-sc-content-positions=\"[1, 1250, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]\" data-bind-scroll-on-start=\"true\">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-callout--finalverdict beauty-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-finalverdict\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Key Takeaways<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block\">\n<ul>\n<li>Shag cuts with layers are popular because they add volume and movement, enhancing dynamic curls.<\/li>\n<li>Stylists advise against short layers and razor cuts to avoid frizz.<\/li>\n<li>Deep conditioning once a week and avoiding alcohol-based products is crucial for maintaining healthy, moisturized curls.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Having naturally curly hair means that you have likely suffered not only frizzy days, but a few bad haircuts.

They work well with curls, especially when paired with layers to reduce bulk and add shape,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;A longer bob with some layers can enhance curls, adding movement and preventing a triangle shape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Undercut and Tapered Cuts: <\/strong>&#8220;These styles are favored for their edgy, modern look, particularly for those with thicker curls who want to remove some weight.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_20-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"><strong>Extensions and longer styles:<\/strong> Having curls doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t wear extensions or long, billowy hairstyles. &#8220;If you have curly hair and opt to add length or volume with hair extensions, you need to make sure you\u2019re choosing a haircut that blends your natural hair and extensions seamlessly and maintains a natural look,&#8221; says Invisible Bead Extensions founder McKenzie Turley.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_22-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Ask your stylist for a layered cut to ensure your natural curls and extensions blend well together. Adding soft layers will help create movement and volume, while face framing layers can highlight your natural features and provide a polished look. Scissors are the best way of cutting curly extensions, and your stylist should avoid using a razor for better control and more realistic results.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_24-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Should Curly Hair Be Layered or Not? <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_27-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> &#8220;Adding layers helps distribute volume, giving curls more definition and preventing them from becoming too heavy or weighed down,&#8221; says Ford. If you have thick curly hair, than layers are probably going to be really beneficial for you. If you have thin and fine curly hair, layers can make your hair look sparse and even stringy.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> To avoid this, it&#8217;s really important to find a stylist that specializes in curly hair that can help you decide what&#8217;s best for your hair type and texture. Another really helpful tip is too keep your hair type and texture in mind when searching for inspo pictures. Luckily Instagram is great for this.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you&#8217;re opting for curly extensions, layers are especially important to achieve the perfect and natural-looking blend.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_33-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> What to Ask Your Stylist For <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Curly hair almost universally tends to behave better if it&#8217;s allowed to grow longer. That&#8217;s because longer hair weighs down the curls resulting in less &#8220;pouf.&#8221; But curly hair can actually look amazing short, provided you get the right cut.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_36-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> If you wear your hair curly and let it air dry,\u00a0you should\u00a0inform your stylist so she can keep the layers on top of your head longer. This is because curly hair air dries tighter than it would if you blow dry it daily using a diffuser. This small adaptation to your hairstyle can make a big impact.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Ford recommends trying a round cut, which provides &#8220;a rounded shape that keeps curls even all around, helping to enhance the curl pattern and create a balanced look.&#8221; Or a deva cut, which is a &#8220;technique where curls are cut dry, allowing the stylist to shape each curl individually. This method enhances the natural curl pattern and reduces frizz.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_40-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> It&#8217;s a common misconception that when you have curls, you can&#8217;t also enjoy bangs. With few exceptions, almost anyone can wear bangs. While short curly bangs may look a bit dated, a few face-framing bangs can&#8217;t hurt. Layers can also make a huge difference with curly hair. Stylist Nick Arrojo suggests cutting in long layers to allow your curls to move. &#8220;You want the curls to be full of spring and life,&#8221; he says.\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_42-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-embed mntl-sc-block-embed\"><\/div>\n<h3 id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-subheading mntl-sc-block-subheading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-subheading__text\"> What to Avoid <\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_45-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for what to avoid in order you save yourself from a haircut catastrophe, Ford recommends staying away from short layers and razor cuts. &#8220;Although there is now the trend of razor cutting for more texture in hair, avoid this when you have curly hair. Razor cuts can cause additional frizz and split ends, especially for thicker curls, as they can roughen up the cuticle.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_47-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As for short layers, he says those can lead to frizz and excessive volume that&#8217;s difficult to manage. Another one to be wary of, depending on your hair type, is blunt cuts. &#8220;Avoid any haircuts that are straight, blunt cuts as they can create a boxy, unflattering shape in curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_49-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Turley agrees, adding &#8220;A blunt cut with straight-across ends will make it difficult for extensions to blend with curly hair.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_51-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Post-Cut Styling <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_52-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> With the right cut, styling curly hair can be easy. If you dry your hair, be sure to use a diffuser. But still, keep in mind that the best thing you can do is to let those curls air dry. Simply cup and squeeze curls in the palm of your hand every 15 minutes until your hair has dried. While you&#8217;re doing this, remember that all curly hair needs intense moisturizing. Avoid products that contain alcohol, which can dry out your curls, and deep condition once a week. Ford recommends investing in a good curl cream like Sachajuan&#8217;s Curl Treatment, which minimizes frizz and repairs damaged ends.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-page_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-page mntl-block\" data-sc-sticky-offset=\"125\" data-sc-ad-label-height=\"16\" data-sc-ad-track-spacing=\"100\" data-sc-min-track-height=\"250\" data-sc-max-track-height=\"600\" data-sc-breakpoint=\"50em\" data-sc-load-immediate=\"5\" data-sc-content-positions=\"[1, 1250, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]\" data-bind-scroll-on-start=\"true\">\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-callout--finalverdict beauty-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-finalverdict\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Key Takeaways<\/p>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block\">\n<ul>\n<li>Shag cuts with layers are popular because they add volume and movement, enhancing dynamic curls.<\/li>\n<li>Stylists advise against short layers and razor cuts to avoid frizz.<\/li>\n<li>Deep conditioning once a week and avoiding alcohol-based products is crucial for maintaining healthy, moisturized curls.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Having naturally curly hair means that you have likely suffered not only frizzy days, but a few bad haircuts.
