Only the section above the ears goes up, twisted or clipped at the back of the head, which pulls curls off the face without flattening them. Keeping the length visible is the point: everything from the ears down stays exactly where it was. Fastening loosely matters, because a tight elastic crushes the curl pattern at the root and leaves a dent when it comes out. It sits better on second or third day hair.
- Suitsround, oval, heart face shapes. Taking the top back exposes the forehead and adds height at the crown, lengthening a round outline while the loose curls still soften the jaw.
- Hair typecurly, coily, wavy, medium density. It needs enough curl to hold its own shape unsupported at the back, since straighter hair goes flat where it is gathered and the two halves stop matching.
- UpkeepNo cutting schedule of its own beyond your usual curl trim, and about two minutes to gather and pin, redone whenever it slips.
- Ask forAsk for a half-up taken from the temples upward on your natural curls, secured with a claw clip or spiral tie rather than a tight elastic.
