Cut dry so shrinkage is accounted for, the layers step from a short crown down through the lengths, which stops curly hair building into a triangle at the shoulders. The volume ends up high on the head rather than at its widest point. A gel cast plus a diffuser sets the tiers, then the cast gets scrunched out once dry. Curl hides regrowth, so it holds its shape longer than the straight versions.

Suitsround, square, oval face shapes. Bulk moves above the temples and the ends are thinned, so the curl draws the outline upward instead of widening it at the jaw, which is the one thing curl usually fails to do for a round or square face.
Hair typecurly, coily, wavy, thick. It needs a defined pattern for the tiers to be visible at all, and enough density that removing weight from the interior does not leave holes.
UpkeepAround twelve weeks between cuts, with a gel and diffuser routine on wash day and a water refresh in between.
