How To Cut Curly Hair
How To Cut Curly Hair – We all know the struggle of having a curly hair. Although some hairstylists know how to cut curly hair, most of the time we need to go back to them within a day or so because the sides do not look even and are not the same in length.
The most common mistake hairstylists make is cutting them just like the way they cut straight hair. They often stretch the hair first when they are cutting it. The result would be two inches shorter by the time the hair dries and draws up! Here are some useful tips to cut a curly hair
Because curls are different with everyone, you have to pay attention to the curl type and hairline.
Do not stretch the hair when cutting
Do not wet the hair. Instead, cut it dry so it won’t stretch and then curl up back making it shorter than what the customer wants. Make sure the curls are laid out the way the customer like them to be.
Detangle the hair until the brush moves through the hair easily. Test it with your fingers also.
Cut the hair near the ends or in the curve of the curl. Trim the topmost layers first and then, work your way down through the curls. Do this section by section.
Separate the trimmed curls from the untrimmed curls. You can make use of a hair clip to do this. This will prevent you from cutting the trimmed curls twice.
To make sure they are of the same length and balanced, you can shake the curls simply running your fingers through them. See how they shape up.
Curly hair is a lifestyle, that really needs patience. One good cut is probably going to take a while. The hairstylist should cut each curl individually.
Work in layers. Embrace the natural hair texture and make sure you know the natural curl pattern. Snip the curls and match it with the shape of your face.
Cutting curly hair is all about catering to the curl, listen more and talk less. Take time to learn about the curl pattern, evaluate shrinkage and imagine how these curls can fit and work together.
Use a wide toothed comb because fine toothed combs stretch the hair, thus disturbing the curl pattern and promoting frizz.
Focus on reducing the hair’s overall volume. Do not use a razor because it will thin out the ends and create a frizz.
Zig zag sections may help give a more disconnected and natural shape.
I know that finding a stylist who can cut and style coils is like apartment hunting in big cities. Cutting naturally spiraling locks is more about art, considering that each curl has its own independent personality.
Although not all hairstylists can master curly hair, you can always develop your own unique method. Just be patient. Remember that no two curls are alike.
Keep in mind that the best haircut to maximize the definition of a curly hair is a layered cut, which gradually increases the length of the different sections of the hair as well as allow the curls to bounce around. There are a bunch of ways you can style a layered cut, and this also goes with a curly hair. Learn more about our hair tutorials here. You can also visit our Girls hairstyles YouTube Channel.
