What is a good hairstyle for thick curly wiry hair?

Answer by  Marybeth (841)

Grow your hair out, the weight of it will pull out some of the curl. Use several products in your hair before styling, use a good curl shampoo and creame rinse like Panteen curls, use 2 to 3 products, try TRESemme'anti-sponge, and Sunsilk captivating curls leave in products.

i always liked curly hair.. you could tie back parts of it. like a small section off the top, just pin it back, or a pony tail, but end all just keep it curly and natural.. i think thats the prettiest thing.

You are in luck these days. Women's hairstyles have never been more natural and variable. Go to a good stylist and get it cut relatively short. The natural body your hair has will work with any short cut.

For short hair, a shag style (cut into many layers) that reaches the jawline is a good option. For a less dramatic look, medium length hair with a moderate amount of layering, especially in the front, will make it easier to control. Avoid very long styles unless you are willing to spend a lot of time on your hair.

Thick wiry hair gets tangled very easily, so it is very difficult to brush or comb the hair. Cutting thick hair to a short length can make the hair look very puffy.

I have a similar hair type, and would suggest a cut that gives layers to more evenly distribute the thickness or your hair. I use a medium barrel curling iron to redirect the curls and give them a softer, less frizzy look. Divide your hair into sections and wrap the sections around the curling iron from root to tip.
