Curly Haircuts
Please don’t make a curl refresh harder than it needs to be. Here is exactly how you’ll spend those 10 minutes to get the best refresh of your life… Wet it. No, not dampen it. WET it. Apply MINIMAL product. If you have the right products, they’re water-soluble and will reactivate with the wet hair. A little goes a very long way here. Brush and separate with a curly brush. The Bounce CUrl is my favorite. The sections are perfect for most hair types. Scrunch out some of the moisture with a towel. Mousse. Again, VERY light application here. Diffuse with your blowdryer. Try to go lighter on the heat setting. Scrunch any crunch out + fluff!

I promise styling curly hair isn’t nearly as scary as you think it is! If you have a solid cleanser that doesn’t strip your hair, let your hair sit in conditioner for 5-10 minutes, and find the styling products that work best for your hair, your curls will last for days and look incredible every time! And if you’re still in the experimentation period for finding the right products, remember if all else fails, a messy bun can save the day 🩷 If you want some direction on where to begin with curly hair products, you know I’ve got you! Comment “LOCKS” and I'll DM you a link to some of my favorite curly hair products as a professional curly stylist! . . . #curlyhairtips #curlylocks #curlspecialist #curlrefreshing #hairstylingtricks

Comment LOW DENSITY for a 🔗link to my favorite fine curly hair products! The cut ✂️ Keep a lot of weight at the bottom then add some light layers after getting that base situated to prevent anything from looking sparse or stringy. Then finish off the style by cutting dry after everything and following curl pattern after washing and adding product to ensure the curls lay and end where they should. Products 🧴 You want lightweight products that hold well to ensure fine hair isn’t weighed down. Let me know if you want me to send those your way! Styling 🪮 Use a flat hand if curls seem to be disrupted by scrunching product in and root clip! When diffusing you can hover diffuse for elongation and to create less frizz or scrunch diffuse to coax more volume out of the curls. What questions do you have on your low density, fine curly hair? . . . #stylingfinecurlyhair #howtostylelowdensitycurls #curlyhairstyling #stylingcurls #tipsforcurlyhair
Caring for colored curly hair shouldn’t feel impossible… because it isn’t! You can absolutely still have beautiful, coiled, juicy curls after coloring your hair if you care for it properly! Making sure your curls aren’t dried out plays a huge factor in your hair health. Not scalding the color on your hair and using the right conditioner and/or conditioning treatments to lock in that moisture will help to color stay and your hair remain healthy ♥️ I will always recommend using products that will protect the color while still cleansing and creating a fantastic curl pattern your texture is familiar with. Finding effective, color-safe products will be the key to extending the life of that color without fading or shifting. I have some really awesome products I recommend to my clients who’ve dyed their hair, so comment COLOR-SAFE and I’ll send them your way! . . . #tipsforcoloredcurlyhair #coloredcurls #coloredhairtips #curlyhairtipsandtricks #colorsafeproducts
I will never stop telling you to turn your blow dryer speed UP and your heat DOWN! The air is what dries your hair, but what we’re trying to avoid is damaging your hair and having curls facing odd directions because the heat is basically doing what a straightener does–forcing it into an unnatural position. We want to dry curly hair fast with minimal damage. Turning your heat down still gets you less frizz and the volume blow drying provides, but doing so without damage is key here. If you need some good dryer or diffuser options, comment VOLUME and I’ll send my favorites to you 🫶 . . . #diffusersettingsforcurls #curlyhairtips #howtouseadiffuser #curlspecialist #diffusersettings
