Naturally curly hair is found in about 30% of the population. Unlike straight curls, curly strands need more care. Therefore, it is quite difficult for curls to choose a model haircut that will not require styling. In this regard, today there are many haircuts for long and short hair.

Features of choosing a short haircut for curly female hair

Short haircuts for curly hair are suitable for any age, and women over 40 are allowed to look younger. At the same time, hairstyles do not require a long time for styling and additionally add femininity and romance to the image.

It is important that the haircut really emphasizes the advantages and hides the disadvantages; this requires taking into account the client's parameters, which are discussed below.

By hair structure

The most important factor when choosing a haircut is the hair structure.

For short strands, the following nuances must be taken into account:

• curls have lightness and increased splendor. In this case, a short haircut is not recommended. Otherwise, the hairstyle will look more like a ball, and for styling the strands you will have to use specialized products (gels, mousses and irons) every day, which will quickly give your hair a “lifeless” look;
• thin hair. A short hairstyle will give the hair the lack of volume, and split ends that are characteristic of this type of hair will be eliminated;
• thick hair. A short haircut in combination with graduation looks most successful, a short one will eliminate bulkiness, and styling curls is also facilitated.

Additionally, the master assesses the damage to the strands and their "obedience". Since for brittle and split ends, a short haircut is the salvation of the hairstyle. But with naughty curls, the haircut will look untidy (without using styling products).

By the type of curls

The elasticity and size of the curls must be determined by the master before the final choice of a haircut. If the curls are small and elastic, then a short hairstyle will be more similar to a poodle's hair, so this option is not suitable for this type. If the size of the curls is large, then the choice of hairstyle depends on the obedience of the strands.

The most successful short haircut looks with curls of medium size and requires little time for styling.

Additionally, the change in the shape of the curls from exposure to humid air is taken into account. If the curls begin to curl more and the strands fall randomly, then a short haircut is also undesirable. Since styling products will be required every time after exposure to rain, swimming pool or sauna.

If your hair is simply wavy, then when you design a short haircut, you can experiment with the hairstyle. That is, you can lay it in waves, increase the strength and size of the curls, or simply straighten the strands.

By face shape

Correctly chosen haircut for short hair allows you to correct the oval of the face and hide the existing flaws:

Additionally, facial imperfections can be eliminated using different staining techniques. Ombre, shatush and highlighting are recommended. Or by accentuating the eyes or lips, using makeup. The irregular shape of the ears can be hidden with side strands, and the imperfections of the forehead with oblique or torn bangs.

By physique and height

Body type and height must also be considered when choosing a haircut, especially for short curly hair:

• for petite ones, graduated haircuts are suitable, since an overly luxuriant hairstyle will give the appearance the look of "Chupa-chups";
• for obese women, voluminous hairstyles are recommended so that the head is in the same proportion with the body;
• torn haircuts with a length no higher than the earlobe and with straight bangs are suitable for too thin ladies;
• for a normal physique, there are no restrictions in choosing a hairstyle.

For those with a pear-shaped figure, it is better to give up short haircuts, as they draw even more attention to the lower body.

What if the curls are naughty?

Short haircuts for curly hair require special care for the curls, otherwise they will be naughty and stick out in different directions.

To improve the appearance of hairstyles on curly hair, you need:

• do not abuse hair washing, as curly curls are dry and brittle in structure, and too frequent procedures will dry the strands even more. In addition, during the washing process, distribute the detergent over the scalp with massage movements, the hair itself does not need to be soaped. They will rinse out when you rinse off the shampoo;
• to preserve the desired type of curls, it is recommended to comb the hair 2-3 minutes after washing with a wooden comb with rare teeth. Dry strands can no longer be combed. Otherwise, the hairstyle will become spherical;
• use a hair dryer and other hot styling in extreme cases, as they additionally dry the hair;
• choose only high-quality products for styling curls in specialized stores;
• make nourishing masks 1-2 times within a month; they are also sold in specialized stores;
• if it is necessary to dye hair, give preference to ammonia-free paints;
• since the ends of the hair are often split, they need to be cut at least once a quarter. Otherwise, the hair will look like a loofah.

To add extra shine to the curls, it is recommended to use strand lamination.

Which bangs are suitable for curly hair?

Curly hair goes well with different types of bangs. But the choice of their design depends on the type of face oval, the height of the forehead and the type of curls.

Straight bangs can be worn both with a fleece over the eyes and on the side. When choosing a shape, the combination with the main haircut is initially determined. If you want to draw more attention to the bangs, you can use different coloring techniques.
