Tips for short curly hairstyle
Whether you were lucky to be born with natural curls or just want that feeling of a bouncy curl, it's easy to utilize a variety of hair care techniques to achieve a fun, flirty curly hairstyle for your short hair. If you were blessed with natural curls, the right hair care products and styling tools can easily transform your out-of-control frizz to sleek ringlets.
If you weren't blessed with natural curls, never fear, you don't need to resort to harsh chemical perms or other hair treatments to create luscious texture and movement.
A myriad of curl and wave patterns can be created naturally, without harsh chemicals, on any type, texture or condition of hair. Most hairdressers suggest that if your hair has been colored or chemically treated in any way, that specifically avoid the use of hair perms which can cause potential damage to your strands.
Lately the star has been photographed wearing a variety of sassy soft curls that are currently in hair fashion. She alternates between wearing a soft sweeping side fringe with pulling her hair off her forehead. She alternates also between waves and curls.
If your hair is naturally curly, depending on the curl pattern you may opt to go with curls from the hairline down to the ends. The best way to transform tight natural ringlets into soft wavy curls like Cynthia's is to complete the following steps:
1. Shampoo with moisturizing shampoo designed for your hair's current type, condition and texture. If you prefer, wash with conditioner only or a diluted formula that works best for you.
2. Use a rinse out conditioner if appropriate for your hair's type, texture and condition. Keep in mind that if hair is too soft, curls may not hold their shape as well. You may wish to only spot condition or use a diluted rinse-out conditioning product.
3. If possible, finish with cool/cold water rinse to close cuticles and add natural shine.
4. Apply a cocktail the includes a good defrisant product, leave-in conditioner and styling mousse to protect hair against frizz, provide extra conditioning and help create good curl profiles.
5. Separate long sweeping bangs from rest of hair. Apply a dollop of straightening gel to the bang and top of the hair line area.
6. Use a paddle brush and a blow dryer with a concentrator. Direct blow dryer down the hair shaft from roots to ends to get hair straight with the added bonus of extra shine.
7. Attach a long finger diffuser to your blow dryer. Keeping fingers and hands out of hair as much as possible (to prevent frizz) separate remaining strands into individual 2" sections. Using the blow dryer on a medium, low to medium heat setting, use the fingers to lift and enhance natural curls.
8. Dry until 100% dry. Use a curling iron to refine the curls if you wish. Finish with a blast of shine spray and hairspray to block humidity and add shine.
