Love your curls!

If you have curly hair, you know the challenges of keeping hair moist and frizz free. Although breathtakingly beautiful, curly hair requires specific styling and cutting techniques to look it’s curly best. For those seeking the most experienced and curl conscious of cuts, a Ouidad cut may be the answer.

Ouidad is known allover the country as the queen of curls. A talented stylist who specializes in cutting curly hair and training other stylists with her unique expertise, Ouidad launched the first curly hair devoted salon in 1982 in her flagship salon in New York.

Ouidad (pronounced wedod) had many reasons to create a curl friendly salon. As a curly haired woman herself, she knew exactly what salons and stylists were lacking in this particular area of the hair styling field.

With expertise to boot, Ouidad began her career working with the top designers, advertising agencies and Broadway productions in New York and abroad. Soon, her talent and her trademark technique dubbed “carving and slicing” became two industry staples for taming and cutting curly hair.

Although Ouidad is famous for her curl savvy, It’s not just her techniques that help tame manes throughout the country. In addition to the multitude of Ouidad certified salons and individual stylists located throughout the country that specialize in Ouidad’s technique and excellence for the craft, Ouidad has also launched a full hair product line strictly developed for styling and cleansing curly hair.

A Ouidad haircut works for curly and long hair because the cut is geared to keep curls from weighing down the style while balancing the natural fullness of curly hair.

Many stylists without experience in a Ouidad haircut or without years of expertise styling and controlling curly hair, struggle when creating a look that enhances curl naturally. Curly hair has a mind of its own, and the natural wave has to be cut to enhance its natural texture. Many stylists often forget that curly hair shrinks once it is dry, so a stylist who lacks experience in curly hair may cut too much length off the hair without intention.

To keep their manes manageable, many people with curly hair opt for light layers to lighten up their style while maintaining length. Others seek short and cropped styles that keep their hair off their face and care free.

Finding the right curly cut that suits your lifestyle and needs is pertinent when you have curly hair.

To get a Ouidad haircut, you can visit the flagship salon in New York, or find a local stylist in your area who has been trained and certified in the Ouidad haircut technique. To find a local stylist, visit the Ouidad website and find a salon under the salon search and book your appointment.

For those curly gals without access to a Ouidad certified salon, call local salon establishments and ask the receptionist if any stylists in their salon specialize in curly hair. In addition, whenever you spot a stranger with fabulous curls, it never hurts to ask them who their stylist is.

To style curly hair and keep it looking its best, try air drying or blow drying hair on a light or cool heat setting with a diffuser. Cleansing hair with a moisture rich shampoo prior to drying helps tame frizz. Check out Chaz Dean’s Wen shampoo specifically targeted to enhance natural curl. In addition, a light shine serum worked throughout the dry style will help create the shine that curly hair often lacks.
