Attend your appointment with natural curls
This means avoiding excessive styling or straightening before the cut. By seeing your hair in its natural curly form, the hairdresser can better understand your curl pattern and how much length to take off to account for curl shrinkage (how much your curls bounce up when dry).
Shoulder-length haircuts look great with curly texture—whether its larger, loose wavy hair, medium-sized springy curls, or smaller ringlets. A mid-length, it's not too long and not too short. Plus, a layered medium curly hairstyle will retain some length, build volume, and amplify the texture of your curls.
Hairdressers – or mainstream hairdressers, as I have now been taught to call them – are not trained in cutting and styling curly hair. This won't be news to any of my curly sisters reading this.
Haircut #1: Short, Layered Bob
What to Ask For: A wavy bob works so well with frizzy hair because it takes advantage of its natural curly texture. To ensure your stylist knows that you want a tousled look, Dave Stanwell says "Ask for a deconstructed bob with loose layers.
This can be done very simply ; firstly tie all your hair away, stand in front of a mirror. Draw the circumfrance of your face shape on the mirror with a lipstick or marker pen. Walk away and you will see your face shape . Your hairdresser will also be able to advise you.

Associated with femininity and beauty, curly hair is highly attractive to many men. Men are drawn to the soft, natural look of curly hair and how it frames a woman's face. Curly hair can also be seen as a sign of youth, which is a factor that many men find attractive.
Curly hairstyles
Whether you want short, shoulder-length or long curly hair with bangs, curtain bangs do wonders – as long as there's room for shrinkage. Wavy Type 2 curly hair is more versatile but finer, so your bang style should include enough hair. Choose heavier bangs for coarser Type 3 curls, and cut them dry.
Layers are a great way for achieving volume and lift. But they're also great for creating shape and definition – especially for wavy and curly hair! Even blunt cuts and bobs have layers, just not as many. If you have short hair that's shoulder length or shorter, and you want to create lots of volume or a rounder shape.
Layered haircuts offer many advantages for curly hair. They enhance the natural shape of your curls, effectively reduce excess bulk and make your hair more manageable. Layers also increase volume, help to minimise frizz and create a more defined look.
Our experts agree that most curl types should be cut on an angle. For tight curls, uneven layering works best. Make certain your cut doesn't flatten your crown. To avoid a flat top, try a short layer under a longer layer to pump up the volume.
