Curly haircut on light waves

Lightly waved, curly hair has a certain allure that can be accentuated with the appropriate haircut. In addition to showcasing the texture of your curls, a well-chosen style also makes hair maintenance much simpler.

There are many options to think about, depending on whether you want your waves to be defined or more carefree and tousled. Every style, from soft bobs to layered cuts, can enhance the movement and volume of your hair.

Depending on your face shape, hair length, and level of maintenance tolerance, you can find the ideal cut for light waves. You can have a hairstyle that accentuates your best features and fits your lifestyle with the appropriate approach.

Regular haircut

Everyone is familiar with how to give a regular haircut. After giving the client’s head a wash, the hairdresser carefully trims their wet hair. The hair is sprayed with water from a spray bottle if it dries too soon. Many hairstylists thin out the hair during a haircut; sometimes they do so gently, sometimes harshly, taking out 5–10 cm of hair, and sometimes more than half of its length. I have heard of special hairdressers cutting off entire strands at the root "for volume," but I haven’t personally experienced this. After that, the hair is dried and styled with a brush. With luck, as well as heat protection.

My favorite haircut

A cascade is something I adore. However, there are two types of cascades in my hair: good and bad.

Bad: they lift the back of the head, create two distinct levels with a noticeable disparity in length, leave excessively thin strands on the neck, and thin both layers independently as they did previously. Additionally, they cut the hair close to the face so that it is impossible to pull it back into a ponytail. You want to cut the bottom layer flush with the top after a cascade like that and never go to the hairdresser again. Never, under any circumstances.

Excellent hair is achieved when the stylist separates the client’s head into zones according to the meridians, much like a globe. The stylist then pulls each vertical strand-meridian to one side, ensuring that the hair in each strand forms a level vertical plane and the ends are uniformly cut at an angle. This process continues throughout the entire head, ensuring that the hair lengths on adjacent "strands-meridians" from one "parallel" match.

Consequently, even accounting for the fact that the top hair will then "jump," the difference between the lengths of the upper and lower hair will be modest and consistent. To ensure that the strands on the left and right are the same length, the area surrounding the face is designed independently. If only the very ends are thinning, then I have nothing against it.

Such a cascade, I adore. It’s unfortunate that I don’t often see hairdressers cutting hair in this manner. However, we’re here to talk about curly haircuts, so let’s get started.

Curly haircut. General advertising information

This section will include "advertising" material that I have not personally experienced, gathered from the deep web.

General technique

It is best to have your hair already curled when you go for a curly haircut, as this allows the stylists to see what they will have to work with. If not, they will need to spend more time and money washing, styling, and drying before and after the haircut.

The hairdresser examines the client’s curls and assesses the curl pattern if the client has attempted to style them at home. and slashes. trims hair that is dry. To the best of my knowledge, in order to prevent the ends from protruding in different directions, you must cut each strand individually and at a specific point during the curling process. They make a bush-like cut, trim any excess, and observe the curl period’s end. No thinning, just confident, well-defined movements with the scissors.

The stylist should also be aware that the curl will continue to jump up if a sizable portion of the length is removed because the weight will not cause it to fall. Indeed, and it can also jump up with expert styling. Consequently, I believe it is almost magical for curly hairdressers to cut hair so that the resulting curly (from type 3) hair lies according to the client’s exact request (assuming the client has one, and not just says, "cut me sometime"). At least, that’s what their advertising claims.

Following the haircut, the hairdresser gives the client his money and their gratitude after washing, styling, and sometimes drying the hair with four hands. He then makes any necessary minor haircut adjustments.

Curly cascade

The same cascade, in which the lower hair stays somewhat longer than the upper, is arguably the most well-liked curly haircut. The difference in lengths causes the hairstyle to take on a shape other than triangle, and the lower strands, which have been "freed" from their coupling with the upper strands, start to boldly "curl," giving the haircut a few more lower rings.

Context

The curly haircut was invented in the West and specifically for curly hair. Something from 3b and further. Because they have a lot of people with such genetics. And here… We, of course, have owners of the three. True, we also have a lot of girls with wavy hair, perhaps much more than curls. But the "curly haircut" is fashionable, so wavy girls also began to have their hair cut this way. Well, and all these statements from bloggers that waves are just a type of curls… Even I, with my 2a, went and got my hair cut using this technique. And here"s what I"ll tell you.

The natural texture of wavy hair is enhanced by a curly haircut on light waves, giving it a soft, carefree look that is fashionable and simple to maintain. This look is a fantastic choice for anyone who wants to embrace their natural waves while maintaining a contemporary, fresh appearance because it highlights the movement and volume in the hair.

My brief subjective opinion

Not necessary. You don’t need a curly haircut if you have 2a. Simply put, you will pay twice as much for the haircut, and it’s unclear if you’ll be happy with the outcome.

I want to remind you that in addition to having light waves, I also have low-porosity hair with dry ends, which is a result of chemistry and blonding two years ago combined with the unusual summer heat. There will be a lot more subjective things to come.

Pros and cons of a curly haircut on light waves

Advantages

• most likely they won’t cut off too much
• they’ll predict how the top layer of hair will bounce after a haircut and curly styling (most likely, they’ll predict it successfully)
• they won’t thin out
• they won’t douse you with silicones
• they’ll be understanding of the fact that you don’t like some components in cosmetics
• they’ll give you a lecture on styling and caring for your hair

Cons

• You’ll get even cuts without smooth transitions.
• the price is 2-3 times higher than in a regular hairdresser
• There are few such salons even in Moscow and St. Petersburg (that is, the probability that there will be such a salon in your yard tends to zero, you’ll need to go somewhere, perhaps to another city)
• there’s no guarantee that they’ll use a not too hot air flow in the hair dryer when drying

The main disadvantage

I also call attention to the item "even sections without smooth transitions" for all girls who have light waves or who occasionally straighten their hair! This is the "curly haircut’s" primary characteristic!

The light waves can become nearly straight and won’t form strands if you don’t squeeze, style, and comb them in a curly manner. Additionally, the haircut pattern will be easily noticeable on such hair. Each of these distinct layers will be apparent. Naturally, a curly girl who occasionally straightens her curls will also notice the layers following a curly haircut.

I dislike this effect even though I don’t try to achieve any kind of perfect hairstyle. I read about this effect, but I didn’t see a picture, so I didn’t give it much thought and it was all for nothing. That explains why exclamation points and other attention-grabbing symbols are so prevalent.

Curly styling is necessary for a curly haircut. Every day. along with refreshments. You won’t be able to style your hair every other time and comb it like straight-haired people after getting a curly haircut. Furthermore, straightening your hair won’t be feasible. Kgm only; hardcore only. or a hairpin.

Picture of my hair if I "just wash and comb it when it’s dry" rather than styling it.

My personal impressions of going to a curly salon

What I wanted (in order of importance)

1. Get rid of dry ends
2. Lose at least a few centimeters
3. Try a "curly haircut" as a process, with all its advantages (no thinning, proper care products, gentle drying, etc.)
4. Get a professional curly haircut (what if I"m doing something wrong and in skilled hands it will be a wow effect)

What I got

To start, let me clarify that my hair was cut by a junior, who is the most affordable hairstylist (if you can use that word here, I usually get my hair cut for 2-3 times cheaper), which might have had an impact on some of the subtleties.

I arrived. I clarified that my goal was to tie up loose ends rather than make significant changes. I’ve started cutting and have made it clear how many centimeters I don’t mind losing.

Remove dry ends

The number of centimeters they removed was precisely what I stated, but my "dry ends" at the back and front strands began considerably higher than this point. I was "undercut," as I discovered when I washed my hair at home.

The "don’t cut too much" rule may be a big plus for most girls, but it was a cruel joke on me because my first instinct was to cut off the ends. Wanting to get a new haircut the day after the salon is still improper.

Try a “curly haircut” as a process

Following the actual haircut, they carefully cleaned my hair using products free of my allergies (which I had sent them a list of), and they gave me instructions on how to wash and style it. Making sure I was a good girl and listening to that was interesting.

They then left me dry. It was interesting to have a closer look at the hair dryer that they used to dry me in the salon because it was one of the top contenders when I was shopping for a new one at the time. I didn’t like how the temperature was set. That’s one less contender, then.

I was burned by the air that was used to dry me, but the hairdresser complied with my request and cooled it down. However, I have to admit that I feel really uncomfortable speaking while seated and expressing my desires or opinions. Once more, the stylist was understanding. It was then time to assess the outcome.

Lose a minimum of centimeters

Almost nothing has changed visually in terms of length, which is good because I’m growing it out. According to what I understand, they just lifted the top layer, which contains the dry ends, and did not cut nearly anything from the bottom layer, which determines the hair’s apparent length because the hair is in good condition there.

Make a professional curly hairstyle

Neither a wow effect nor steep 3b curls appeared in my hair. But seriously, for someone who is unfamiliar with my low-porosity hair and "a la naturel" tastes, I think the hairdresser did a pretty good job overall. Overindulgence in styling products, but still within reasonable bounds I was rushing and didn’t take any pictures because I only liked the styling about 75% of the time.

My ears were hurting and my scalp was itching, so I was very happy that I didn’t need to wash my hair right away. And that I was aware of how my hair would look after doing my own at-home curly styling even before I left the salon.

Actually, the result of the haircut

Everything lies nicely and correctly in its curly form.

However, everything was fine before the haircut. My hair was cut in May, and they left a "good" cascade in place before that. "Before" is above, "after" is below. Here are collages in a straight form so as not to repeat myself.

I’ve started curling less and less lately. I simply wash my hair without squeezing it or using leave-in or gel products. I occasionally comb my hair as well. Furthermore, I don’t like the way my hair lies in this situation if I comb it. It irritates me to see a distinct top layer of hair. This is the primary drawback of a curly haircut that I discussed previously. Additional pictures:

Even though it is shaggy, it ends up being manageable for home if you don’t comb it.

It helps that I wear my hair up now; otherwise, it gets in the way of cleaning, eating, washing, and other activities. If my hair is up, or at the very least in a bun, the shortcomings of my haircut are hidden. And I still curl hair "for going out."
