Think Your Curly Hair Is “Impossible”? The Right Cut Design Makes All the Difference.

“I have curly hair… and honestly, I don’t know what to do with it.”
That’s something I often hear during consultations.

Wavy, frizzy, hard to manage.
Affected by humidity. Can’t live without a flat iron.
Curly hair comes with many deeply personal challenges.

But I don’t see curly hair as a negative.
In fact, I believe there’s beauty in the natural movement and expression that only curls can create.

What matters is not trying to “fix” the curls—
but reading them, and designing a haircut that works with them.

How the hair moves.
How it reacts to humidity.
How different it looks when wet vs. dry.

— These patterns are what I closely analyze,
so I can design shape, weight, and texture that suit your natural curls.

For example:

• If curl patterns differ by area, I adjust the shape to keep it balanced overall
• In areas that tend to puff out, I avoid over-thinning and control volume through base cutting
• I may intentionally add layers to bring out beautiful movement in your natural curls

In this way, I create a “balanced design that works with your curls.”

Honestly, this is often more complex than doing a perm.

Because with curly hair, there’s always unexpected movement—
so it requires a delicate balance between control and flexibility.

But that’s what makes it fun.
Every client has their own “rules,”
and discovering them is a big part of the craft.

Many clients with curls say they want “better manageability.”
Rather than just making it heavier, I focus on
“controlling where the weight sits.”

Leaving weight where it’s needed.
Removing bulk where airflow is key.
Visually airy, but structurally calm and contained.

When that balance is right, your curls stop being a “problem”—
and start becoming your best styling partner.

Yes, curly hair can be time-consuming.
But that texture is a unique quality that only your hair has.

If you dream of sleek straight hair, it’s totally okay to get it straightened.
But you might also discover a beautiful style that celebrates your natural texture.

Whether you choose to straighten or embrace your curls—
both are valid choices.

But if you’ve never tried the “embrace” approach before,
it might be worth exploring something new.

Your curls might hold a kind of beauty that’s uniquely yours.
