2 Braids, Ever so Loosely
Braids are beautiful and I love wearing them. They are easy to do (sometimes) and can add variety to my daily style. Not only are braids lovely but they are also an easy way to add more texture and volume to your style. Try a loose side braid with headband or hair clip and rock that curly braided style.
3 Messy Bun
Free flowing, bouncy waves, curls, coils, and kinks are beautiful! They can also be a little hot and sweaty at times – depending on length. When the weather heats up another of my favorite styles is a high messy bun. It looks dreamy and feels like heaven when the air hits your neck. A messy bun is versatile. It is also feels and looks relaxed yet pulled together, and no matter what I’m wear I feel confident wearing it.

The volume and ringlets allow me the base necessary to style those rockabilly perfections.

I’ve always wanted a curly bob but have been too chicken to cut my hair. So, I admire immensely from afar and live vicariously. Short, curly hair is lovely and refreshing. One sure way to liven up a head full of curls and create a new look is to take the plunge and cut it shorter. Yes, shorter. Keri Russell and Viola Davis are two women I hair crush on endlessly. Both have taken their already beautiful shoulder length hair and cut it even shorter and rocked it!
7 Fake It!
Curls are wonderful and I was lucky to have been born with them. But if you don’t come by curls naturally but you love the look then fake it! There are many options to help you achieve a curly look: pin curls, rollers, braids, wigs, and weaves...! The curly aid options are endless for you to rock the style you want.
It’s pretty easy to love those curls and rock them like a superstar while maintaining loving care. Moisturizer your strands well, keep those ends tucked away and well-manicured.
