Curly Hair

Description:
Curly hair is all about balance and definition. Each curl coil adds volume, so precision cutting is essential to prevent bulk while still maintaining shape. Curly fades, high tops, and crops look great when barbers focus on curl control and natural definition. The biggest challenge is cutting curls in a way that lets them sit naturally without awkward growth patterns.

Style & Care:
Clients should:
