Curly Haircut FAQs
A curly haircut uses a cutting technique designed specifically for individuals with curly or wavy hair. Unlike a regular haircut, a curly cut must be done when your hair is dry and in its natural state. It takes your natural curl pattern and texture into account. This ensures that your curls fall beautifully, reducing frizz and enhancing volume.
The best haircut for your curly hair will depend on your face shape, curl type, and personal style. Some popular curly cuts include layers, bob, pixie, and Deva cuts. Ask a stylist who understands curly hair to help you choose a haircut that will enhance your natural curls and suit your overall look.
That depends on your hair's health and how quickly it grows. On average, every 6-8 weeks is a good benchmark for curly hair cuts. Maintain your curly hair's health and definition with regular deep conditioning between cuts, and make sure to use curly-friendly hair products.
The main risk with curly haircuts is getting one from a stylist who isn't skilled in handling curly hair. It's important to find a hair professional who understands your curly hair's unique needs, to ensure you get a cut that enhances your natural curls.
Embrace your natural texture and work with your curls. Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to keep your curls hydrated. Apply a curl defining cream or gel to your hair when it's damp, then let it air dry or use a diffuser for extra volume. Avoid heat styling as much as possible to prevent damage.
Find a stylist or salon that specialises in curly hair. Read their online reviews, ask for recommendations, and look for stylists with curl-specific training or certifications. It's also a good idea to book a consultation with your stylist first, to discuss your hair goals and ensure you feel comfortable with them.

Good-looking curls can be as little as a great chop away. A curly haircut helps lift and loosen a head full of curls.
It gives more manageable style and shows off what makes you unique, with flattering shaping and less weight in your locks. Some salons practice a technique called a Deva cut, which is a dry cut for curly hair that caters for each curl, lifting and letting go of drag that pulls curls down. So shape up to a curly new look with precision dry cutting in Cape Town. A curly haircut usually costs around ZAR290 at top salons on Fresha near you.
