A Beginner’s Guide to Curly Hair Cutting

Introduction

Curly hair is a beautiful thing, but it can be difficult to work with and maintain. Most people with curly hair choose to wear their hair in a straight style and cut it all at once. However, you can also have your stylist cut the curls around your face so that they look fuller. In this article, we’ll discuss how to get the most out of your curly locks before getting them cut by a professional.

The most important thing to know about cutting curly hair is that curls tend to shrink as they dry.

Curly hair, as a result of its natural formation and texture, is more prone to shrinkage than straight hair. This can be especially problematic if you have curly hair and want to get it cut at the same time as your friends who are cutting their hair straight.

The best way to prevent this from happening is by getting an accurate cut from someone who knows how curly hair behaves—and who has experience working with curlies! If you’re not sure where you should go for this kind of work yourself or what kind of stylist would be best suited for your needs (if any), there are plenty of options out there that cater specifically toward curly haired clients like yourself:

You don’t need to wash your hair before getting it cut, but you can.

• You can wash your hair before getting it cut, but it’s not necessary.
• If you do wash your hair, try to do so the night before so that the results will last longer.
• If you don’t wash your hair before getting it cut, you can wash it after the cut is complete and dry for about an hour or two before styling as desired.

You should use a wide-tooth comb when working with curly hair.

When you’re cutting curly hair, you have to use a wide-tooth comb to avoid pulling out curls. A wide-tooth comb is also helpful in detangling curly hair so that it doesn’t get tangled up either during the cut or after.

When cutting curly hair, it’s best to go for textured styles that have layers.

When cutting curly hair, it’s best to go for textured styles that have layers. These will help you get the most out of your curls and make them look more natural.

To do this, ask your hairstylist to cut your hair when it is wet (not dry). This way they can see how much space there is between each curl, which will help them cut around them without any gaps showing up in their work.

Don’t brush curly hair at any time other than in the shower; brushing curls can ruin the texture.

You should never brush curly hair at any time other than in the shower. Brushing curls can break the curl pattern, making them look frizzy and unhealthy.

Ask your hairstylist to cut your hair when it is wet, not dry. This can help you get a more realistic look at how layers will look.

You may have heard that curly hair is softer, easier to style and more manageable than straight hair. This is true for the most part, but one thing you should always keep in mind when it comes to cutting curly hair is that wet hair looks different from dry. When a stylist cuts your curly locks by hand at home (as opposed to using electric clippers), they’ll find it easier to see where each curl starts and ends because there are no frizzes or flyaways obscuring their view of what’s happening below. In addition, because there aren’t as many hairs on display at once—and also because they’re not being cut by an electric blade—the shape of your face can be better defined when you have wet curls instead of dry ones.

If this sounds good enough reasons why your stylist might want wet curls instead of dry ones during their next appointment at the salon barbershop then let’s talk about how exactly those two styles differ:

Get a stylist who knows how to work with curly hair and someone who is willing to educate you on what they’re doing and why they’re doing it.

When you’re looking for a stylist, ask them how they will work with curly hair. Some stylists may only cut curly hair in one way, while others will have several different options available. You want someone who can give you the best possible outcome and understand what it means when your curls are unruly or frizzy.

It’s also important that whoever cuts your hair is willing to listen and make adjustments based on what works best for the way your curls look and feel!

Take control of your own hair; no one else can be an expert in it except yourself.

Learning how to cut and style your own hair is an important part of taking control of your own body. The things that you can do with your hair are limitless, but it’s up to you whether or not those options will be beneficial for you.

It’s easy enough for most people who have curly hair, but it may not be so simple for others. Some people have never had any training in cutting, styling or caring for their curls before—and even if they do have experience with these things, there’s always room for improvement!

If this sounds like something that would interest you (and we hope it does), here are some tips on how best prepare yourself:

Conclusion

A good hairstylist will know how to cut curly hair. They also should be able to explain what they’re doing and why they’re doing it. The most important thing is to have an honest conversation about what you want from your cut, because that’s what will make your experience with the stylist successful!
