1. Forehead-Grazing Waves: Add some flattering dimension to your face by letting your wavy curls graze the top of your forehead. They keep your ‘do feeling intentionally stylish and bring a playful vibe to your look.
2. Unique Buzz: If you can’t decide whether you want to show off your curls or a rad buzz cut, opt for something in the middle like this. Then, style with bobby pins for an edgy finish.
3. Natural Bounce: Take full advantage of the gorgeous bounce and volume your curls give with a cut that lets it do its natural thing. Cascading coils that effortlessly fall to one side of the face give a flattering asymmetrical vibe to this short cut.
4. Sky-High Volume: Work with your natural (enviable) volume and let that hair reach for the sky. Your twirly tresses only add to the bounce and texture that makes this look feel high-fashion and always on-trend.
5. Texturized Edge: A thick, curly mohawk with eye-grazing side bangs that beautifully frame the face pairs perfectly with closely shaved sides.

7. Curly Top: Keep the sides of your pixie cut super short — so short, you won’t even be able to see the texture in your hair here — and showcase your curls on top. This style brings the focus of your look to the crown of your head while keeping everything else streamlined and sleek.
