PREPARATION AND AFTERCARE
Curly Cut Prep
-
Wash and thoroughly detangle your hair within 2 days of your appointment
-
Style in it's naturally curly state using the products you normally use.
-
Make sure your curls are for the most part detangled and dry. (No matted areas)
-
Please let your hair hang loosely-avoid ponytail holders or clips, they will affect the cut.
​
Curly Cut Aftercare
-
Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent frizz, breakage, and moisture loss.
-
Use a loose pineapple or high puff (gather hair loosely at the top of your head) to reduce frizz.
-
Wrap hair in a satin or silk bonnet/scarf for extra protection, especially if you toss and turn at night.
-
Avoid tight hairstyles overnight; gentle, protective styles like twists or braids help maintain curls and reduce tangles.
-
Get a trim every 4-6 to prevent split ends and maintain shape—more often if you use heat or color.
