Curly, curly hair


There's curly hair and then there is curly hair. The best way to wear hair this curly is long with long layers. If the hair is left one length it will have a triangular shape, which is not very attractive . To create a pleasing shape, the cut needs long layers in the back to eliminate a shelf at the bottom and layers around the front to frame the face, then the overall look is soft. Curly, curly hair should never be cut with a razor (or for that matter, any type of hair), when those razored out pieces begin to grow the hair will look twice a "big" as it is naturally. When drying this type of hair, less is better. Letting it dry naturally is best, without touching it during the drying process, or if you need to do it quickly, use a diffuser. It needs a rinse out conditioner, as well as, a leave in. One that will leave the hair very soft and shiny. We used Pureology's Instant Repair, great for curly hair! To finish we used Alfaparf's Cristalli Liquidi, which is loaded with linseed oil.
