When styling curly frizzy hair, it is best to work with its natural texture instead of fighting against it. A clever haircut can help camouflage frizz while making it part of your style statement.
Use a long wavy bob that grazes your chin for an effortless tousled look without emphasizing curls, combined with side-swept bangs for a feminine and sultry style.
Long Shag with Curtain Bangs
Long shags with curtain bangs are timeless classics that complement nearly every hair texture, according to Katz. “This cut works especially well on girls who already have straighter locks but want some added volume in their look,” she suggests, noting how it also helps decrease bulk and define facial features.
A pinned-back version of this look is ultra-glam and ideal for balancing out an oval or oblong face shape (think Taylor Swift!). A center part is easy to maintain with this look and the full bangs blend right in with shaggy layers in no time at all!
Long, curly-haired individuals can add an exciting new edge to their style by having their shag trimmed into a choppy fringe that flips back and up over the forehead. This shoulder-length look makes for an excellent way to avoid dying your locks blonde; simply use some Herbivore Botanicals Coconut Sea Mist Texturizing Salt Spray ($14) to manage any frizziness that arises in this style. It works best on light or medium brown shades.
Bow Bun
Finding a haircut to frame your face and manage unruly curls can be difficult when you have curly locks, but stacked bobs can provide one of the most versatile and flattering cuts for curly locks, adding depth and volume to each strand while making them appear cute and voluminous at once.
Try a twisted maiden braid to add extra style and flair to your wavy or curly locks, keeping them from looking too flattened while preventing that frumpy look. This style will help prevent over-tameness of strands that could result in frumpy looks.
Layers are an effective way to define curls. To keep them looking their best, consider using a leave-in conditioner specially formulated for curly hair, which will nourish and transform it into a soft yet manageable style. A styling gel for curls may also come in handy to tame flyaway strands and maintain this hairstyle – although some upkeep is definitely required! This look may take some maintenance but will more than pay for itself in terms of looks!
Long Wavy Bob
Long wavy hair makes it simple to create an effortlessly casual and seductive style while concealing frizz. Miley Cyrus and Kaia Gerber both sport this shoulder-length vacation cut; it can be dressed up or down depending on your personal preference – full fringe frames the face nicely or wispy curtain bangs add a casual vibe.
If you have a medium-length bob, try layering in various highlights for an elegantly feminine look. The vibrant hue will bring out the texture and natural curls in your locks while also adding dimension.
The asymmetrical lob is another chic choice for women with curly locks, adding volume and dimension while slimming the corners of your face. Add some spice with caramel highlights that stand out against your other locks for added sexiness!
Messy Medium Cut with Bangs
If you have medium-length hair and prefer styling it with bangs, try this messy, choppy style for bangs. It adds volume to your face while framing cheekbones effortlessly – plus it’s easy to manage with just some mattifying pomade! Plus, you’re always prepared for any event!
Medium angled bobs are one of the most adaptable hairstyles for curly locks, as they look good with any type of bangs and just require adding volume to your locks for any occasion – from work, the football game, or a night out with friends!
An excellent medium-length hairstyle with bangs that’s also easy to manage is a shaggy bob, as Emma Stone famously showcased. This wavy, messy style will give your locks that red carpet glam while remaining low maintenance! Just use high-quality curl cream so your strands don’t frizz out, and make sure your bangs are swept to one side for a subtle feminine appearance.
