A Curly Hair Cut & Style is a curl-led appointment designed to improve shape, definition and manageability without losing the movement that makes curls look their best. You’ll leave with a balanced cut, a clean outline, and a finished style that suits your curl pattern and day-to-day routine.

More information

What this service covers

This appointment is designed for short to shoulder-length curls and focuses on creating a shape that works with your natural pattern.

  • A consultation to agree your goal, shape and styling preferences
  • Targeted trimming and reshaping to remove bulk where needed and add balance
  • Clean outline and curl-by-curl refinement where helpful
  • Wash and curl-focused styling to enhance definition
  • Finishing guidance so you can recreate the result at home

Who it’s for

This is ideal if your curls have lost their shape, feel uneven, or are harder to style as they grow. It suits clients who want consistent results and a cut that looks good on office days as well as weekends. If your hair is longer than shoulder length or you want a big change, you may need a longer appointment.

What happens in the appointment

You’ll start with a quick discussion about your curl pattern, shrinkage, how you wear your hair, and the level of volume you like. The cut is built to respect how curls sit when dry, then refined through cleansing and styling for a finished result. Allow up to 90 minutes depending on density, curl type and the finish you choose.

Aftercare and keeping your shape

You’ll get practical advice on refresh days, drying methods, and how to reduce frizz without weighing curls down. Most people benefit from a maintenance cut every 8 to 12 weeks to keep the outline strong and the shape balanced. If you colour your hair, timing your cut around colour appointments can help the overall finish look more intentional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this appointment suitable for all curl types?
It is designed for curls, coils and textured patterns, focusing on shape and definition. If your hair is longer than shoulder length or you want a major restyle, book a longer option so there is enough time.
What should I do before my curly cut?
Arrive with your hair detangled and wearing it as you normally would, with minimal heavy oils or butters. If you use strong hold products, a lighter wash day can help your curl pattern be assessed more clearly.
Will my curls look shorter after the cut?
Curls naturally spring up once weight is removed, so some shrinkage is normal. Your stylist will factor this in during consultation so the final length feels comfortable and intentional.
What’s included in the finish and styling?
The finish is aimed at enhancing your natural curl pattern with definition and a wearable shape. You’ll see product placement, drying approach, and simple tips you can repeat at home.
Do I need to pay a deposit to book?
A booking deposit is taken to secure the appointment and is refunded on the day of your visit. If you need to change plans, check the cancellation terms at the time of booking so you know where you stand.
