How to cut my curly hair?

I am going to my hairdresser tomorrow and am at a loss at what to tell him about how to cut my hair. I have had the same style now for about 5 yrs (long curls with a middle or sometimes side part). My hair is very curly and thin. I am looking for a shorter style but am unsure how to achieve it without looking like a poodle. How should I tell my hairdresser how to cut it? Should I ask for layers? And what is the best way to get a little more body at the top, because now it just lies there like a dead fish or something!

Without layers the roots of your hair are weighed down by the rest of your hair. To get rid of the triangle, flat hair top you need layers. My layers grew out and I was getting no curl up top b/c the rest of my hair was weighing it down.



Really you need to find a stylist you has worked with curly hair in the past, and who has kept those past clients.



If you don't know or are afraid of offending by asking that question, just say you want layers. And don't be afraid to get some short one's going. It creats a full, but not pooffy, head of beautiful curls. :)



Oh and personally I love the layered look that frames the face, it make the curls so pretty. Big foreheads go for side parts to minimize the size, otherwise you can just go down the middle to make styling easier.

When you get a good answer let me know! I have the same problem!

I think if you have your hairdresser wet/wash your hair while you are there. Explain to him/her exactly how you want it i don't think you should look like a poodle if it's their profession they should be able to work their magic, right? I got a perm a couple months ago and i thought my hair looked a little poofy but it will go away (that's if you even think its poodle-like) :) Good Lucck.

I think u should get layers. I have thick curly hair and layers, and the layers make my hair look even thicker, so if u want ur hair to have more body at the top u should get layers!!

try searching online for a salon that specializes in curly hair, or a hair stylist that does



(usually hair stylists with curly hair can cut curly hair well. USUALLY)



another thing people do with curl hair is have it cut dry bc when its wet, the hair looks different (straightish/wavyish)



i think you shoul ask for a side part with long layers



good luck =)
