Curly hair can look incredibly fashionable when styled correctly. From red carpet elegance to something more relaxed, these ultra-curly styles will leave you looking stylish and elegant.
1. Shoulder Length Curls
Shoulder-length curly hair can transform from casual to glamorous with high-quality products designed to define and keep strands bouncy throughout the day. Curls look their best when determined using quality products that represent and support their active coils. This wavy hairstyle frames the face beautifully, showing off your natural curls with soft romance and showing them off beautifully. Add soft blonde highlights for added richness and vibrancy. This shoulder-length bob proves that not all hairstyles require straightening as we age. The light shaping and thin fringe make this style suitable for any face shape.
2. High Ponytail
If you have thick, curly locks, a high ponytail is an effortless way to add natural volume and is a timeless style that never goes out of fashion. This classic glam style can easily take the spotlight at any event or function. Try pairing this high ponytail with flipped ends and an eye-catching hair bow to elevate your look and achieve instant glamour. Lazou suggests creating this look by smoothing out your crown by blowing forward and teasing close to the base, then wrapping some of your hair around the base to conceal any clips and complete the look with soft side bangs for an elegant red carpet appearance.
3. Loose Ringlets
Curly hair looks incredibly adorable when pulled back into a sleek ponytail. To achieve this classic style, spray your coils with lightweight styling gel or pomade and run your fingers through them for volume and texture. Finally, pins can add some edge and finish the look off perfectly! Loose ringlets look stunning on any face shape, but are particularly flattering on women with rounder features. To create an eye-catching effect, ask your stylist about blonde balayage highlights for added visual impact. The shag cut became immensely popular during the 1970s, yet this look works exceptionally well on curly locks. From chin-length curls to shoulder-length coils, this fashionable style looks fantastic when styled with a deep side part and deep side parting.
4. Short Curls
With short curly hair, ringlet styling is an edgy and flirty style you should try experimenting with. Add caramel balayage highlights for added depth; this look is ideal for dates or evening strolls and pairs well with long gowns and traditional outfits like lehenga or anarkali dresses. Another effective way of styling short curls is forming them into an afro. This is a great look for men and can even be combined with a fade haircut for maximum impact. This style stands out due to the equal density of curls on top and taper at the sides, giving more definition and lengthening the face shape.
5. Bouncy Curls
Curly hair looks best with subtle highlights to enhance its natural volume and trendiest style. Ideal for adding some spice to any everyday look, curly locks with highlights make a statement in all seasons and can be worn with casual jeans, tops, skirts, or kurtas for any season! Ask for caramel highlights that accent the ringlets to give your bob a contemporary edge. This look will leave you feeling sophisticated and elegant; it works on all face shapes and age groups!
6. Cheeky Curly Bob
Try this voluminous bob haircut if you want a stylish but easy style option. It will highlight your curls like never before while adding even more depth with highlights for added vibrance. This chin-length curly inverted bob is perfect for clients who want low maintenance yet want to show off their natural curls! Suitable for all face shapes, this look can be made unique with pops of color in the eyebrows or deep side parting for additional volume and spirals!
7. Layered Curls
Layered styles often get the misperception that they won’t work well on curly hair, yet that couldn’t be further from the truth. Layering can give your curls fantastic volume while framing them beautifully to complement your features. A stacked layered cut can create an eye-catching style, suitable for long or short locks. Its chic aesthetic makes this style versatile enough to work for anyone. To create the look, ask your stylist to cut your curls in graduated layers – this way, each strand will be slightly shorter than its neighbor pre, vents clumping of the coils, and makes them move more freely.
