Visible length describes the outline in this illustration, not stretched or underlying hair length.

Ask your stylist

Ask for long layers that retain a full perimeter and encourage loose movement. Discuss whether the reference wave can come from your natural texture or would need styling.

Your routine

Loose waves may be natural or styled; drying time and detangling depend on density and length.

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?
