Short curly hair is much more versatile than you might think. By choosing the right cut for your type of curl, it is possible to leave the look modern, elegant and still enhance the shape of the locks, of course. For the divas who are thinking about investing in a short haircut for the summer, are in transition or just want to give that look a makeover, but don't know which look to go for, we've separated 7 trendy cuts for each type of curl. Check out!

Asymmetrical bob cut and shaggy hair are good options for type 2 curly hair

There is no shortage of short haircuts that flatter type 2 curly hair, or just wavy hair, as locks with this curl are extremely versatile. But for divas who are looking for a fashionable short haircut, the peaked and asymmetry versions are sure bets. The asymmetrical bob cut is full of personality and does not go unnoticed due to the slight difference in length between the sides. In addition, it is possible to give more volume to the strands if they are cut with a straight base.

On the other hand, shaggy hair is a short, super-pecked cut that emphasizes the natural waves of the hair, in addition to providing more volume and movement. Usually, this haircut is accompanied by a layered fringe, but you may or may not opt for this finish.

Bet on the bob cut and the french bob if you have type 3 curly hair

If you are looking for a short curly haircut for the type 3 curl, the bob cut is a great option. Although it is a classic, the hair cut at the nape of the neck never goes out of style and is always on trend lists. If you want more volume, you can keep it with a straight base or bet on slightly peaked ends to give lightness and movement.

Divas who want to dare a little more have the French bob as an alternative. This cut inspired by the elegant and classic look of French women has become the darling of several fashionistas on Instagram and promises to come with everything next season. The look consists of a short, ear-length cut and straight, curly bangs, cut just above the eyebrows.

The heart cut and rounded cut are perfect for curly hair type 4

Type 4 curly hair divas, the famous curly hair, can also go beyond the basics and invest in modern cuts. The first option is the heart cut, which mixes different finishes to achieve the effect that gives rise to its name. While the top is slightly rounded, the sides are cut in light layers that decrease in size as they get closer to the nape of the neck. Due to this effect, the heart cut is perfect for those who want to bet on the short look but with the volume well distributed and balanced.

Another alternative is the rounded cut, which has the opposite proposal to the heart cut: cut as if it were a mini black power, this model highlights the volume of the strands. That is, it is ideal for curly hair who want an impactful, very voluminous and bold look.

The pixie cut is a wildcard option for short curly hair for all curl types.

When it comes to trendy short haircuts, the pixie cut can't be missing from the list, as it keeps coming back to trend lists, especially when summer approaches. And for those looking for modern short curly hair, the pixie is a great bet, as it works on all types of curls, from 2A to 4C, it is versatile, and can have different finishes (with bangs, peaked, elongated…) and very practical to take care of and finish on a daily basis. But to bet on the pixie you have to be willing to make a radical change, diva!

How to finish short curly hair: tips to add definition and volume without weighing it down

After cutting curly hair, the first thing that comes to mind is how to finish the new cut on a daily basis, isn't it? The first tip is to pay attention to the amount of product applied to the locks. With the hair shorter and, consequently, closer to the root, excess cream can cause oiliness. So try to spend a little less. In many short curly haircuts it is possible to apply texturizing techniques such as the tape, the dedoliss or the twists, as well as in medium or long hair. Just test and bet on the one that works best for the chosen cut.

As for the finisher, bet on a combing cream for curly hair that is nourishing to ensure that definition that curly hair loves, but that does not weigh down the strands. The formula with linseed oil and shea butter of the curling cream Cachos do Seu Jeito, by Niely Gold, is an example and even has the benefit of UV protection and thermal protection for divas who dry their locks with a diffuser.
