Many women with natural curl feel completely at a loss as to the options available for their hard to manage hair. If it’s too short, it
becomes a bubble, left long it turns into a pyramid. It takes a skilled stylist to give curly hair shape without resorting to creating
topiary arrangements. Here we see a smoothly layered look in very curly hair that controls the bulk and gives a natural,
esthetically-pleasing shape. The base cut is a blunt bob, with box layering to reduce the bulk at the ends of the hair. The fringe is
left longer and adds its own focus to balance the volume of the hair. The styling method is likely performed with a diffused dryer and
scrunching with the fingers using a moderate-hold gel and smoothing serum. The hair can be dried to a “mostly-dry” state and then the
fingers can be used to wind the hair into ringlets and allowed to air dry completely. This offers a longer holding style and minimum
frizz, as well as volume control.
