Get answers to common questions about Curly Cut.

Our consultation assesses curl type, shrinkage, density and daily routine to determine cutting techniques. By understanding your hair's behavior, we shape layers and weight placement to encourage natural pattern, reduce bulk, and improve definition tailored to your curls.

Yes. We use dry cutting and curl-by-curl techniques to remove unwanted weight while preserving the natural clumps. This approach thins bulk strategically so curls spring back with shape and texture, keeping definition and movement intact.

Curly cuts work well on a variety of lengths. Ideally, hair should be at least a few inches long so curl shape can be evaluated. For very short or newly grown curls, consult us and we’ll recommend the best timing.

Absolutely. Inform us about recent chemical services during booking. We’ll assess hair integrity and may adjust techniques or recommend a conditioning treatment first. Some chemical processes require extra care before precision cutting to avoid breakage.

We use salon-grade, sulfate-free cleansers, moisturizing conditioners and lightweight curl creams or gels chosen for your texture. After styling, we recommend a personalized product kit to enhance definition, control frizz, and support your home routine between appointments.

Maintenance depends on curl type and desired shape. Generally every 8–12 weeks keeps layers balanced and ends healthy. Looser waves may space appointments further; tighter curls often benefit from more frequent shape trims for optimal definition.
