- Visible length
- Long
Visible length describes the outline in this illustration, not stretched or underlying hair length.
Ask your stylist
Retain length past the shoulders in the dry curled state and connect the layers without thinning the perimeter. Discuss shrinkage, tangling and how much volume you want at the crown.
Your routine
Long curls can take more time to detangle and dry; adapt the routine to your density and curl pattern.
Agree before starting
- What length and outline should we aim for when my hair is dry?
- How should we adapt this shape to my texture, density and growth patterns?
- What should stay the same? Confirm any change to color, texture or overall length.
- What daily styling, salon upkeep and cost should I expect?
