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
How much does a curly haircut cost?
For your first visit, Anna’s Curl Transformation is £180. It includes a detailed consultation, a curl-by-curl or Deva Cut, a steam detox, cleansing and conditioning, drying and styling, plus product advice tailored to you. Returning clients can book a Curl-by-Curl Cut for £125, and kids’ and teens’ curly cuts start from £65. See the full price list.
Do you cut curly hair wet or dry?
Dry. Curly hair shrinks as it dries, so a cut made on wet, stretched-out hair can bounce up much shorter than expected. Cutting each curl in its dry, natural state lets Anna see exactly how every snip affects the shape, weight and fall of your hair. That’s why we ask you to arrive with your hair washed, dried, detangled and down – see our appointment preparation guide.
How often should I have my curls cut?
There’s no fixed rule. For some clients it’s every 12 weeks, for others it might be six months – every curl journey is different. Part of every appointment is helping you become the expert on your own hair, so you’ll know when it’s time to come back.
