Short Curly Hairstyles You Can Try for a Modern Look
Women with naturally curly hair may either see their hair as a
blessing or as a curse. If you’ve been keeping it safe by sporting the
same long curly hair because you’re afraid your face would look like a
triangle or just a plain mess, then here’s a guide on how to take care
of your hair, style your hair and choose haircuts suitable for your
naturally curly locks.
LOVE YOUR HAIR
Instead of complaining about your natural curls, use your energy to
take care of it. Since curly hair tends to be dry, it often results in
unwanted frizz. To prevent this, treat your hair with deep conditioning
treatments and hot oil massage. Curly hair is also prone to split ends,
stress and other hair damages, but keeping hair moisturized at all times
can prevent such problems. Maintain a well-balanced diet, so that your
hair receives the nutrients it needs to keep shiny and healthy. The more
you take care of your curly locks, the more you’ll love how it falls on
your face or how it stands up at the top of your head.
SHORT CURLY HAIRSTYLES
Contrary to popular belief, naturally curly short hairstyles have
plenty of variations. All you need to do is be brave enough to accept
change and try out a new hairstyle. Here are some types of short curly
haircuts you can try:
- Short curly shag haircuts – Shag hairstyles are made with
varying lengths of layers. If you have naturally curly hair, you can
still have it cut into layers in the front and back with uneven and
tapered ends. They can be worn chin-length or just below the
cheekbones.
- Short curly bob haircuts – Bobs are classic and fit
almost anyone. Since there are dozens of bob types available today,
you can choose from a wide range of short curly bob haircuts. The
choice you make should be based on the shape of your face. For
instance, if you have a strong jaw line, have your hair cut just
below your chin so it could frame your face perfectly. If you have a
long face, you can cut your curly hair shorter, so that you face
appear wider.
- Afros – If you want a funky hairstyle, nothing can look
trendier than the afro. Avoid the 60s and 70s Afro, but think more
of Macy Gray’s hair. Her classic afro hair was cut in an angle that
it would stand on its own with a round appearance. It is suitable
for women with heart, triangular, oblong and oval-shaped faces with
medium to thick hair.
- Very short haircuts for curly hair – If you have the
confident to wear your hair an inch from the scalp, then go ahead.
Super short hairs are easy to style and maintain, but this hairstyle
is not for everyone. You should have great facial features and bone
structure because there will be no hair around your face to keep
focus away from your flaws. Extremely short haircuts could work well
regardless of the shape of your face.
- Curly updos – Even curly hair can be turned into updos.
The great thing about having natural curls is that you don’t have to
add plenty of volume to create the typical dramatic look of updos.
However, you hair should be chin-length to achieve updos because
very short haircuts can’t be tied into a bun. When creating short
curly updos, styling products are used to keep hair together at back
without flattening out the curls. These haircuts are ideal for
almost everyone, except round- and square-shaped faces.
Short curly haircuts can look elegant in weddings and other social
events, look professional for the office and business meetings and look
chic and trendy for a night out. If you become happier and more
confident with your new hair, then you have just discovered your ideal
hairstyle. |
