Tailored haircuts for curly hair
Cutting curls, when done properly, is far more complex than cutting straight hair – and requires a whole new level of knowledge and expertise. Straight hair is often cut wet, with the hair lifted up, pulled taut, cut and dropped, but if you do that with curls, there’s no way of knowing how the fall and shape of the curl once its dry.
Haircuts for curly hair are Anna Balcombe’s speciality, whatever your curl structure, length, style, age or gender, your curls are safe – and will joyously transform – in her expert hands.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need a specialist approach for my curly hair?
Every head of curls is beautiful and unique – your curls have their own structure, texture and pattern. As such, you’ll never get the best results from a ‘one size fits all’ haircut. Cutting curly hair in the same the way you would straight hair means you have no idea where each curl will land and what shape you’ll be left with. But with the right expertise and cut, sculpting and styling, your curls will really pop! Get in touch to find out more.
What is the benefit of cutting curl by curl?
Curl-by-curl cuts involves assessing the natural shape and texture of each curl, while they’re dry and looking their best, before cutting and sculpting every curl one at a time to create an overall balanced, flattering and defined shape that’s personal to you. This is the best way to enhance your natural curl pattern and flatter your face and head shape, achieving unique results that really celebrate your individual curls. The transformation will amaze you!
How do I prepare for my appointment?
In order to assess the nature structure and texture of your curls, we ask that your hair is washed, dried and detangled when you come for your appointment. It’s fine to use your normal products but your hair should be down (we’d request you avoid tying it up at all after washing and drying). Essentially, we need to see your curls on their ‘best hair day’ – so that might be the day you washed your hair or might be a day or so afterwards. If you’re unsure, do get in touch in advance of your appointment to check.
