About the Bouncy Curls for Women
Who it suits
A medium-length curly style with a bold side fringe, suiting curly and wavy textures of moderate density. The heavy side-parted fringe flatters round and square faces by adding asymmetry and softening the forehead. Best for those who want movement and face framing without long length.
How to ask for it
Ask for a medium-length curly cut to around the collarbone with soft internal layers for bounce, plus a heavy, deep side-parted fringe that sweeps across the forehead and blends into the face-framing curls. Request defined curls set with cream and diffused, and the fringe shaped to fall over one side.
Upkeep & styling
Trim every eight to ten weeks to keep the fringe and layers in proportion. Define curls on wet hair with cream and diffuse; reshape the fringe daily with a little product. Refresh between washes with a water mist and protect curls overnight in satin.
Bouncy Curls — frequently asked questions
Does a side fringe work on curly hair?
Yes. A deep side-parted fringe blends into the face-framing curls and adds asymmetry. It is cut a little longer than a straight fringe to allow for curl shrinkage.
What face shapes does the side fringe flatter?
The diagonal sweep balances round and square faces by breaking up width and softening the forehead. It also adds movement that flatters longer faces.
How do I stop the fringe shrinking too short?
Have it cut slightly longer than your target length to account for curl spring, and shape it on dry hair so the stylist can see where each curl falls.
How do I keep the curls bouncy?
Apply curl cream to soaking-wet hair, diffuse on low heat, and avoid touching while drying. Soft internal layers remove weight so the curls stay springy rather than flat.
