How to Style Curly Mens Hair

Don’t know how to style curly mens hair? Here’s how to take control and make the most of your curly men. Whether you keep hair cut short or wear it medium length, men with curly hair can use these tips to get manageable and easy to style hair.

1. Shampoo Less

Even though men can produce up to twice as much scalp oil as women, curly hair still tends to be dry. The coil of hair makes it difficult for the oil to travel down the hair shaft and coat hair. Therefore, skip shampoos and use a moisturizing formula designed for curly hair. Start washing hair every 2 to 3 days. For longer hair, try even more downtime between shampoos. Some men with curly hair swear that a weekly shampoo keeps hair in best condition.

2. Reduce Frizz & Add Curl

Product only provides the promised results when used correctly. Apply product to towel dried hair. If hair is too dry, product won’t be distributed evenly and hair that is too wet will dilute the product, reducing it’s performance. Try using an old t-shirt to dry hair rather than a towel. The softer fabric will protect delicate curls.

Make suret to coat hair thoroughly with product while taking care not to use too much. Rub product in from roots to ends, like when shampooing hair. Use a comb to ensure even distribution. To style, comb hair into place while using fingers to scrunch and enhance curl. Add more product to areas where extra hold is required – like the sides or a cowlick.

3. Air Dry

And now the easy part, let hair air dry. Hands off is the best way to style mens curly hair. From less shampooing to steering clear of the blow dryer. Throughout the day, try not to play with curls. The oils from your fingers can cause frizz. That’s not to say that women should be discouraged from enjoying your curly mane.

How to Style Short Curly Hair for Men

The first step of how to style short curly hair for men is getting a great cut. For this, a salon may be your best option for the special attention and hairstyles that make curls manageable and look great.

Keeping curly hair short, about two inches at most already reduces your styling time. Here are more tips for how to style curly mens hair:

1. Quit shampoo –  Curly hair tends be dry because natural oils have a hard time moving from the scalp down to the roots. Shampoo makes hair even dryer so cut back shampooing to once a week max. Opt for a sulfate free or curl specific formula.

2. Strength + conditioning – To look their best, curls need added moisture. Get one that matches your shampoo but use it every day, concentrating on working it into the tips of hair.

3. Rub down – After the shower, gently pat hair dry with a towel. Rubbing hair damages it and encourages frizz, something you want to avoid. Even better, trade in your towel for an old t-shirt – the fibers and tight weave is better for hair (and will pull less out).

4. Comb it out – Do you use a brush or typical comb on your curls? If there are no knots, go ahead and just use fingers. If you need some detangling, use a wide tooth comb, available at any dollar store.

5. Product – The last step is adding product. Ask your stylist for a recommendation or you just use trial and error to find the best one for you. Heat a little bit of product up between palms, but not too much – curls will be weighed down and look greasy. Rub through hair to evenly distribute. Finally, let hair air dry and you’re done!

Curly Hair Men – How To Cut It Yourself

In Men’s Hairstyle Trends barber versus stylist posts, stylists were the recommended option for men with curly hair. One option that wasn’t mentioned was cutting curly hair yourself. Many people with curly hair, men and women, opt to cut their own hair out of frustration or for the sheer convenience. Whether you have short or longer curly hair, here’s how to cut it yourself. These techniques will work to sculpt new styles or for trims between haircuts.

1. Any at home haircutting requires professional quality scissors. A good pair purchased  on-line or at a beauty supply store may cost up to or over $100 but it’s an investment that will pay for itself over and over again. Do NOT use regular household scissors.

2. Start with dry hair – this will show how curls tend to sit as well as the length of dry hair. Before you get started, shake your head from side to side so curls naturally position themselves.

3. Be sure to cut hair in front of a big mirror with plenty of light. Nothing else will help if you can’t see well.

4. Now, finally to the cutting. Unlike straight hair which can be trimmed in chunks, curly hair is cut by the individual curl unit. Take a look at the profile of your hair, decide where you want to cut, and take the first curl into your hands.

5. Hold the curl in one hand, the scissors in the other, and snip hair straight across. Curls are a continuous S shape – aim the cut in the middle of an S, at a C to maintain curls.

6. Be careful to trim the same amount on both sides of your head. It’s natural to concentrate on the side most comfortable for your dominant hand but that will not lead to a desirable even shape.
