Cute 5-Minute Hairstyles for Curly Hair

Instead of spending time and money trying to iron out your curls or damaging them with rebonding chemicals, embrace them with these cute styles.

Straight hair girls can only covet the kind of volume that curly hair girls are blessed with, while curly hair girls envy the tidiness that comes with straight hair. The solution to quick, curly hairstyles? Easy looks that balance, not kill the volume.

Celebrate your texture and twirls while paying tribute to the good ol’ 90’s. Pull half or all your hair up into a high ponytail.

If you’re feeling cheeky, pull the ponytail towards the side or add a bow.

The best part about curly hair is that texture works well with messy looks. Grab strips around your face and crown in varying thickness and twist them back before pinning them down. Loosen the twists by pulling at them for a relaxed finish.

For something simpler, just grab 1 strip from above the ear on each side and have them meet in the of the back of your head. For something fancier, take more strips and roll 1 or 2 of them into buns.

Put your hair back into a half-up top knot or a messy updo by simply splitting your hair into half and tying it into a knot (or two, depending on your length) before pinning it down.

Leave the ends out for a pretty, unfinished look.

Remember how we said to balance the volume instead of killing it? Create a dramatic look by sweeping your hair to one side and pinning it down.

Pro tip: Use a metallic bobby pin or one that stands out against your hair colour and pin it down in a criss-cross or triangle pattern for extra flair.

Embrace your curls and let your hair down!

Define your curls and tame frizz by applying a small dollop of LUCIDO-L’s Designing Whip Hair Foam evenly throughout, when the hair is semi-dry.
