Shag hairstyles work for fine hair and curly shag haircuts work even better. They can be trendy and functional and can help people feel more confident. Getting a new haircut is a big commitment and people want to feel good about their new look. At the end of the day, a good hairstylist aims to have a satisfied client. Quick-style curly shag haircuts are low maintenance and are perfect for fine hair. In this article, I will look at some of these hairstyles to help inspire a future redesign for your hair.
I remember a client I had a few years ago who had the same blunt lob hairstyle for over a decade and said she wanted to feel like her hair was doing something. She had a type of fine hair that typically lacks volume and just lies flat. I ended up giving her a curly shag haircut that day. I put just the right amount of layers in it so the hair had the ability to ‘breathe.’ I remember when she looked in the mirror she actually let out a laugh – not a bad one of course. That is the kind of impact a good curly shag can have for fine hair. It is not just about hiding your hair, it is about using the texture of fine hair to your advantage and creating a style that has volume, depth, and shape. This means that the style will not fall flat (pun intended) the moment you leave the salon.
Curly shags on fine hair is so interesting because the cut itself is so much more important than with thick hair, where you can get away with a lot more. Every single layer’s placement is important. If weight is removed too much, you’ll lose the curl’s ability to clump and hold together. With too little weight, the whole thing just falls flat. It’s difficult to find that balance, which is why it’s so satisfying when just the right amount of weight is removed. I’ve compiled some of my favorites here. These are photos of cuts and colors that I think achieve that balance really well, and a couple that made me want to take out my shears the very moment I saw them!


#1: Bold Curly Shag with Defined Texture
This transformation is simply wonderful! It’s the layers that really make it shine! The movement and bounce of the curl is amazing, and the height she achieves from the crown layers is fantastic! She has curls that are soft and defined (not crunchy at all), and it seems whoever styled her really nailed the appropriate touch time! The face framing is soft enough to draw the eye inwards and not make the overall shape feel too heavy on the sides. With all the texture, it may be difficult to achieve a youthful feel, but this does it perfectly, and without trying too hard! These curls are so sharp that I’m sure you’ll need to keep the shape up, and some regular hydration to keep it looking so good.


#2 Soft Caramel Waves with Subtle Sun-Kissed Highlights
All the other haircuts tend to be a bit more flashy, but I think this one has the most payoff because the tone that was chosen is very subtle. The waves distract enough from the effortlessness, and the sun-kissed mid-lengths highlight the hair. It creates fullness that a single tone can’t provide, creating the impression one has spent a fortnight in the sun, but really, it’s a fresh from the salon look. The brown base is anchored, while the light pieces do the dimensional heavy lifting. The choice of mid-length for fine hair is wise, as it retains enough density at the ends, which avoids the look of being too wispy. I will appreciate the trouble of managing those waves and highlights brassy, and that vibe because it really is a lot of work and low effort at the same time.


#3 Chic Espresso Tousled Curly Bob
I love the deep color of the espresso. It helps the curls pop, and the different shades in each curl indicate that there isn’t a flat rat’s nest of hair. A chin-length bob is an excellent option for fine hair as it helps keep the weight up to the point where the curl can support itself. A few highlights add more than just a hint, and they really help create dimension in the hair. A trim that looks good as it grows out is a sign of good design, and this cut has that. It is important to keep the curls hydrated to keep the look. A good, applied curl cream will do the trick when the hair is damp. It will help it look more polished and defined rather than undefined.


#4 Golden Blonde Breezy Curly Shag for Fine Hair
The importance of color on a hairstyle can be illustrated here. The golden blonde color gives the illusion of more hair by imitating depth and density. The framing layers are more with the cheekbones in mind rather than just falling. You can tell because the shape holds even though the curls themselves are relaxed and loose. This cut will require your hair to fall into shape. A styling product will be necessary for hold. You will need to give your hair some definition and hold everything in place for the. volume payoff. Be honest with yourself about how much work you will actually put in.


#5 Charming Chestnut Shag with Lush Curls
The first thing I notice is the root fade, and I wish more people would do it because it kills two birds with one stone. It hides any new grays, so your grow-out looks classy. It creates a shadow at the scalp as well, making the overall shape appear fuller at the top. The chestnut color has real warmth without going orange, which is a trick in that color range. The layers here are doing exactly what they should for fine curly hair, lifting the curl without those thin, scraggly ends caused by removing too much weight. It frames the face nicely with no styling, which tells me the cut was done well.


#6 Soft Ginger Curled Bob with Layered Volume
The variation of tightness in curls is particularly interesting. Some areas of the curls are tighter spirals whereas others are looser waves. That inconsistency actually gives the style a more realistic appearance instead of looking like it was done with rollers. The variation in the multi-dimensional ginger tone works best because it helps create the illusion of more thickness, which is ideal when styling fine hair. Chin length works best because it is close to the jaw line so the curls will have enough weight to hold their shape. This will be low effort as far as curly hair goes. You will have it pretty easy as long as you have a good curl enhancing product to tame frizz. You won’t have to worry about any extra maintenance.


#7 Brunette Bob with Soft Natural Curls
While small, careful scissor work may not be the most noticeable detail, it is present if you look closely enough. Sculpted movement was created within each layer of the hair, and those curls were shaped to sit apart, resulting in that soft, effortless look. It is rare to come across lengths that are as universally flattering as chin-grazing. On fine hair, it avoids the trap of going too long and losing all your volume. All that is needed is a light mousse on damp hair to complete the look. I would steer people with very straight or thick hair to something else, but fine hair with a natural wave or curl, this is the most wearable option in the entire collection.


#8 Sunlit Cinnamon Waves with Feathered Fringe
The fringe makes the look complete. It is light enough and helps move the entire cut forward, giving fine hair direction and purpose. The cinnamon tone with highlights is stunning as it almost has a moving quality to it. Hair fine begins to struggle just past the shoulders, but the layering here is high enough to maintain volume throughout the mid-lengths. The lighter color will need maintenance to prevent it from looking dull, but the cut is forgiving enough to not look like a disaster between appointments.


#9 Beachy Blonde Curly Bob with Lightweight Texture
This bob’s slight asymmetry adds a touch of modernity without being a style you have to explain to people. The lighter blonde tones are great for adding dimension to each curl. Visual interest is even where the hair is at its thinnest. The placed volume high is clever for the facial proportions; it elongates without adding width. The chin length is fine hair, which means you’re working with the densest part of your hair where the curls can actually support themselves. A solid curl cream will be key for maintaining definition without weighing anything down.


#10 Silver Waves with Soft Defined Curls for Thin Hair
Silver works best with fine hair because the softness of the color gives the illusion of more volume. The cut being slightly above the shoulders is perfect because you are cutting enough length for the curl to bounce up, but enough length is kept to avoid the hair looking wispy. The curls are defined, and they have personality without looking fussy. Maintaining the silver tone and the curl definition is a commitment, so I will be very clear here; regular toning and conditioning is non-negotiable. This is for someone that is willing to put in the time, but the payoff will be great.


#11 Lustrous Espresso Spiral Curls for Fine Hair
The espresso brown color expertly defines each spiral into individual, sharp spiral shapes. Thanks to the layers, the ends won’t look wispy, and won’t create a step-like look. This is especially challenging to do with dark hair since, without the contrast, the lack of consistency won’t show, but will look ruined. The hairstyle shapes the face, especially ovals and certain angled shapes, because the curls soften the whole appearance. With good technique and a fringe diffuser, the hairstyle will be easily maintained. The combination of tips and styling should result in a stunning look.


#12 Textured Curly Shag with Natural Highlights
Natural highlights are soft and effective without being a focal point of the style. They are subtle enough to add some tonal variation to make the curls appear fuller. That is the type of color work that I appreciate because it works with the cut instead of competing against it. The layers add an airy quality that fine hair desperately needs, and the overall shape has movement without looking like it’s trying hard. Maintenance is the usual conversation with curly shags, you’ll need to keep the shape trimmed and the curls defined. Day to day styling is manageable once you have the technique down.


#13 Deep Raven Curly Shag Framing Oval Faces
I really love the dramatic effect black hair with close curls that just touches the ears has. It is so unique with a light skin tone, plus curly hair at this length means the volume is concentrated exactly where it matters most; at the roots and midsection. For fine hair, that length combined with curl density is a power move because you aren’t fighting gravity. This hairstyle is designed for oval faces, as it highlights the cheekbones and provides a lifted effect. The maintenance of color and curls will definitely start a lot of conversations. It’ll look good so you just have to be sure to keep it up, as the routine is not overly complicated.


#14 Bouncy Caramel Curly Bob for Fine Texture
The caramel coloration and warm tones on a darker base color help warm the overall complexion in ways that single-process color literally cannot achieve. They help the hair look as if it has developed a range of colors naturally which helps with the careful color placement and how it is designed. The cut is also designed to sit just above the shoulders where the curls are meant to come to life and where the layers are meant to help enhance the natural pattern instead of suppressing it. The style does fall into the range where it will probably look best from about day 1 to day 3 which is a plus for how realistic you’re being about how often you’re going to style it. Humidity may become an enemy in this style so prepare yourself if you’re in a warm climate as there will be potential for this style to become a bit unkempt.


#15 Golden Spiral Curls with Soft Volume for Fine Hair
The golden color in this hairstyle creates warmth that looks both healthy and vibrant. This hairstyle also features golden tones and spirals, which give the impression of an inner glow. I appreciate the curls falling in such an intentional way, and the fact that they aren’t stiff. Each curl is free to fall and select its own direction rather than be guided like the rest. If you have fine hair, this style will be a bit shorter, and it’s going to take a little more work. A collaboration with your routine is a must. For this look, a diffuser will become your best friend, along with a curl revival spray for second-day hair. The extra volume and movement created make the hairstyle worth the extra effort. The color even disguises any sparse areas, despite some of the sections being quite thin.


#16 Cascading Chestnut Curls with Soft Bangs
What makes this curly layered haircut different from the rest are the bangs. The bangs are light enough to blend in with the rest of the hair so that they don’t sit in front of the forehead. Instead, the bangs create a flattering focus on the eyes, but not too obvious. The warm chestnut tone adds a nice touch to the color. The fine hair in the layered movement gives the hair a lot of shape, in addition to the cut’s length. The bangs will require some maintenance, but they will look great once styled. It will definitley be worth the time and effort. For rounder faces, longer layers create the illusion of more length, and the vertical lines from the layers achieve this!


#17 Autumn Spice Voluminous Curls
This is one of the rare successful combinations here. This color is more suitable for warmer settings and more mature skin tones, and does not look like it is attempting to turn back time. I always appreciate that. The layers are adding a lot of volume, and the shape is good for rounder faces as it creates vertical emphasis. The cut requires a good amount of texture, so a curl-defining product is going to be a daily staple for you. If not, you risk losing the definition that makes this look so good. This is a truly beautiful style which has a lot of presence.


#18 Rustic Auburn Tousled Layers for Fine Hair
The tousled quality is the selling point for this style. There is nothing about this cut that looks over thought or over styled. We will work with fine hair that tends to go flat, or frizz out. The auburn color gives it some visual weight and the medium length keeps it versatile. I will say, this shade of auburn can be one of the more high maintenance colors that tend to fade quickly. Curls will need to be taken care of in between cuts. The look, movement, and dimension is effortless. This is just what you want with fine hair, and without looking like you spent an hour on it. v.


#19 Vibrant Copper Cascading Curls
That copper shade feels warm as if the hair is emitting warmth from its strands. Each of the layers in this style is cut to interact with the natural curl pattern of the hair, which can create the illusion of increased density. This is particularly clever on clients with fine hair. The length is practical, and the cascading layers provide an easy maintenance solution while creating a style that captures light. The curls will soften the look of the face which is a real bonus for anyone with more angular features. You’ll want to invest in a good curl mousse to keep the under control. The copper will need more frequent visits than the cooler tones to keep it looking nice, but it’s worth it.


#20 Whimsical Cinnamon Curl Bob for Fine Hair
It’s easy to overlook asymmetry. It’s soft and falls around the face, and there doesn’t appear to be any asymmetry that is obvious. The warm cinnamon tone really sinks into the curl texture and adds to the depth in the sink that a flat, single-process color just can’t achieve. With fine hair, and the bouncy curls pull the volume into the body of the hair, giving it a fuller and more purposeful look. The cut is complemented by how well you can be honest with yourself about the upkeep. The curls need a product to keep them defined, and the color will need touch-ups to maintain the warmth and richness are up for that, it really is a lovely result.


#21 Effortless Brunette Corkscrew Curls
I enjoy the rhythm of the corkscrew texture in this cut. The curls are of a varied enough size that they look natural and not overdone. The layers are adding good volume to the mid lengths, and they are quiet enough that you won’t see any layering lines. For fine hair, this kind of spiral texture is perfect for creating the illusion of density, since each curl takes up a lot of visual space. A lightweight gel is a good starting place, and you will likely need to revise your method since getting the right product balance in your hair will be what makes the look effortless instead of defined. It may take a few tries, but the shape of the cut is solid enough to be forgiving while you work it out.


#22 Light Textured Curly Shag with Defined Curls
I do think this type of refinement with shags is less common. The defined curls do look a bit unrefined, keeping with the undone aesthetic, and the chin-length layers work wonders to enhance the cheekbones. The texture throughout the hair creates visual interest even if the color is a monochromatic. For square and heart shaped faces the jawline softening curls are super flattering. This length, with fine hair, is really impressive in terms of volume and there is a fine line between playful and polished.


#23 Textured Curly Shag with Soft Layers
This cut looks really easy to maintain. The curls are bouncy, showing that the cut is great and requires little product. The length is just above the shoulders, so it will feel light and mobile. The soft layers are visible, giving extra volume and movement, and you can see the mark of someone who knows how to cut curly hair, and you can’t really see where the layers are. With curly hair, you have to keep the hair moisturized to avoid frizz, and while the other styles in this collection have higher maintenance, this one is pretty easy.


#24 Textured Curly Shag with Fringe Layers
The layers at the front add a softness to the forehead and change the whole feel of the cut. It looks more youthful and fun than your typical curly shag. The gentle curls that go to just the right length create volume at the right spots. On finer hair, that volume gets even more accentuated. On finer hair, where the density is lighter, I appreciate it when the cut works with that rather than against it. You’ll want to talk about the fringe with your stylist, though, as curly bangs behave quite differently to straight bangs, and getting the length right to achieve that perfect ‘shrink’ is important.


#25 Elegant Curly Bob with Soft Volume
This cut is just above the jawline and below the chin, providing a nice touch of sophistication to the style and ease in management. The face-framing layers hold the heaviness in check without compromising the shape of the bob. Tame and bouncy curls are key. Bounciness in curls is key as it softens the look and gives fine hair the volume it needs. The soft layers around the face help to brighten the look without it feeling forced. You may need to add a soft hold product to keep the curls defined as the day goes on, but the cut is doing mostly the work, and that’s how it should be.


#26 Chic Curly Shag with Soft Layers
The curls here are layered to shape the face and accent the features, while allowing each part to fall naturally. The hair cut serves the purpose well because it youthful/balances the length and its medium length while keeping the hair from looking childish. The amount of volume in this fine hair is really nice and it is largely a result of the well placed layers that support the pattern of the curls. Everyday this will come to life without stiffness and the hair product you use will make definition worth the maintenance.


#27 Soft Curly Shag with Natural Volume
Out of all of these options, I would say this one is the easiest. It is the type of style I would recommend to someone who hasn’t had a shag before and is unsure about the amount of texture to commit to. The mid-length layers add some natural volume and nothing feels too extreme, and the curls are loose which would work on hair that is wavy as opposed to really curly. The shape is bouncy and youthful and looks nice without being too fussy. For definition throughout the day, apply a light curl cream to damp hair and that’s all you need.


#28 Textured Curly Shag with Warm Highlights
The warm highlights give the hair an illusion of fullness and density. That is what highlights are meant to do on fine curly hair! The different colors of hair catch the light and give the appearance of fullness instead of fine, individual strands. This cut at shoulder length creates a lot of movement and defintion to the curls, while layering the curls, allowing them to hold their shape. The cut diffuses the perimeter and adds softness to the face which is really nice for oval and heart shape. To keep the look polished, you’re going to want a product that gives hold, the end result will look really natural and warm.


#29 Soft Curly Shag with Defined Layers
Given the cut, the described layers give shape appreciation without chopping the appearance. Hair bounces at a medium length curl, and leaves the impression of being healthy, along with the shine. This piece suggests relaxed hair that is well taken care of, which is something many curly haired styles overlook, as they rely on heavy products, and good hair care is usually covered up behind a wall of styling products. However, here it is clearly not the case. The way it shines suggests healthy hair, very visible and not covered up by sheening products. Plus, the way the cut frames the face is just as good. Nothing too dramatic, just a well proportioned face that would suit a large number of people. Maintaining those defined curls will mean a lot of work, but the good thing is you’ll be working with the cut rather than against it.


#30 Chic Curly Shag with Defined Layers
The delicate layers in this shoulder length cut give fine hair great movement and bounce. The overall style has a relaxed look, avoiding a too fussy appearance. The framed layers around the face that soften instead of adding structure, along with the average density, allow each curl to move freely to create a lively look. Regular maintenance will keep this style and a light styling product will support definition beyond the day of washing.


#31 Vibrant Curly Shag with Soft Waves
The defined curls and shag texture give a softer natural look. If you have a softer face shape the curls will compliment your features rather than clash. The shag also has some very subtle texture to help add movement to the hair without over thinning it and making it look fine (this happens way too often). The hair will look fresh and alive without a ton of styling effort. Styling the hair to look great won’t be a fight. The curls will take some hold product but the cut and the style will allow it to be easy to get the look you want.


#32 Modern Curly Shag with Soft Bangs
The soft bangs are what excite me the most. On fine wavy hair bangs can be the best decision you’ve ever made or the most frustrating with these being on the good side of that line. They sit so lightly on the hair and frame the face. They blend into the rest of the shag instead of sitting as a separate element. The mid-length cut does a good job at providing texture and body while not going too crazy for the hair’s natural density. With a lighter color and possibly a few subtle face-framing pieces, I can see this going from lovely to really special by adding depth and a more dimensional look to the curls.


#33 Modern Curly Shag with Soft Volume
The soft curls highlight the warm sun-kissed balayage woven throughout the cut. The length that falls just below the shoulders means this is versatile enough to be worn up or down. Always practical, this is a consideration that doesn’t get enough attention. The fine medium density has been layered so perfectly for an airy and bouncy finish, and for that reason looks fuller than it actually is. The way it falls for round or oval shape faces is so flattering. Slightly longer curly styles do need a bit more maintenance to ensure shape is kept, but the balayage helps break up the hair for some visual interest even on lazy hair days.


#34 Bold Curly Shag with Lively Copper Highlights
The copper highlights in this shoulder-length cut give a standard curly shag a beautiful upgrade. It adds different warmth and depth to all of the shag looks and textures. When mixed with a layered cut to frame the soft features of the face and the color vis-a-vis the particulars, it makes a really nice energizing lift all around. There is such nice variation in all of the textures that it makes the style really flexible. Some of the curls in this cut will tighten while others will loosen, so you really won’t have to make any adjustments to this cut to make it fit your new setting. It really defines the whole style while adding in versatility. The definer that you’ll need for all of your curls and the look will be day hold and you’ll want to have it. The copper to tone trade will be worth it to keep things vibrant and to beat any brassy returns.


#35 Playful Curly Shag with Defined Ringlets
The hair frames the face in defined ringlets is very inviting. The light auburn tone is very warming and has a flattering effect. The curls define their pattern and express themselves which is important for hair that is fine and loses its shape quickly at longer lengths. The cut is great because it allows the hair’s natural texture to shine through. The soft framing is great for round and oval face shapes. Some fine hair may need a bit of product to hold those ringlets in place, but the cut is forgiving enough that the low-effort days look intentional.


#36 Chic Curly Shag with Rich Auburn Tones
The auburn hue brings a dimensional presence that would not be achieved with a lighter shade. The variation in tones adds fullness to the shoulder-length cut. The subtly defined curls create a nice contrast between relaxed and structured. Great for fine hair, the cut is low-maintenance and will do most of the work. Just a small amount of product for definition is required. The style is the type that gets better as you learn to work with it, which will help keep the color looking fresh.


#37 Voluminous Curly Shag with Defined Layers
The specified layers that hit a little below the shoulders, create lovely bouncy curls, and how they hit the face, and especially for those clients who want something soft and elegant, not wild, gives the cut a softness, particularly for oval face shapes. When there is enough hair to support the curl pattern, and medium density is a nice place to be, that is always the case, because without the volume becoming too unmanageable, When it comes to layering around the face, I really appreciate the way it’s done because it softens the features instead of just adding width, and especially on older clients, it really helps to refine the overall look of the hairstyle.


#38 Chic Curly Shag with Soft Volume and Bold Color
That deep plum color is certainly a bold choice! When it looks good, it looks really good. The soft voluminous curls are a great touch. The range of the color is going to shine through the curls and will catch the light. The darker color at the depths of the curls will also contrast nicely. The bangs add a nice touch to the overall look. They help frame the face and help tone the color down to avoid it taking over the whole look. There’s a lot of movement and texture which is great! The color will fade and will require maintenance, but if you like to make a statement, it’s perfect.


#39 Textured Curly Shag with Soft Layers and Natural Highlights
A mid-length shag has natural highlights that provide just the right amount of dimension to the curls so that they look multifaceted, but not too obvious. Gentle layers frame round and oval faces beautifully, and the overall shape versatility is great, especially if its worn natural or defined with some styling. For finer strands, the layering creates an added volume and airy quality that keeps everything feeling light rather than limp. Regular trims will keep layers from losing their shape, but for someone with a decent daily maintenance routine for curly hair, daily upkeep should be too much.


#40 Textured Curly Shag with Natural Bounce
The warm tonal richness of the mid-length hair cut is simply divine. The depth of these curls helps the layering appear lively, and ‘bounce’ as though it has not been styled or does not contain volume. However, fine hair, and the hair that is layered, should not go so short that clumping is impossible, as I find that is a common error. This looks especially great on people with an oval or heart-shaped face. The shape provides a good amount of definition, so there’s nothing more to do. The curls will require a styling product for definition.


#41 Chic Curly Shag with Defined Texture
This shorter cut is interesting because it holds all the volume and all the texture right around the face, which is very fine hair and gives the illusion of fullness that long cuts often struggle to get. The defined texture means that every individual curl is free to move, and the subtle layering adds bounce without creating any patchy see-through areas. The good proportions mean that nothing is too wide or too long, which means this would suit a range of different face shapes. Regular trims will help keep the shape from escaping you, but in the curls there is more than enough character to carry the look between appointments.


#42 Dynamic Curly Shag with Lively Copper Tones
The copper color adds energy to the overall look and highlights the different layers of texture in each curl. The length of the cut is styled to the face and the whole movement makes the hair feel light and young. The layers are cut to create volume in the right places and to avoid the ends looking sparse. This cut is good for fine hair especially because the curl pattern creates fullness and the color adds volume. To protect your hair from fading, (think a good quality curl defining product), consider it an investment in the end result.


#43 Natural Curly Shag with Soft Volume
The chin-length style, when done well, keeps the curls close to the chin to frame it, and where fine hair has just enough density to look full. The soft layers are giving the volume naturally and not relying on product to hold them up, which tells me the cut was shaped with the curl pattern in mind. A good curl cream with regular hydration will keep this looking good, but the style’s foundation is strong enough to not fall apart on days when you’re running out the door.


#44 Textured Curly Shag with Soft Volume and Defined Layers
Here, soft curls and defined layers create a truly delightful silhouette. The curls accentuate the cheekbones, whilst the layers smooth out anything more angular at the jaw and forehead. It’s the type of cut that looks really thoughtful, and yet like it was done in a hurry. The volume, length, and texture are all great and the medium length = just interesting enough to pull focus. The cut has a ton of potential for medium to thick density, and fine-haired clients with the right product and technique can also achieve it, though the cut will require some maintenance if the hair is prone to frizz. The shape is, though, overall quite forgiving.


#45 Textured Curly Shag with Defined Volume
This style falls in the middle range and has some soft curls that are defined, creating a fun and bouncy look. This can work for all hair types, whether straight, wavy, or even curly! The layers give fine hair the lift it needs around the crown and middle sections. The overall shape creates a look that is very fresh and my personal favorite. I can imagine it easily being an everyday style for someone who wants texture and movement in their hair without the hassle of not having to style it. You will need product to assist in defining the curls and controlling frizz, but the good news is it doesn’t have to be an extensive product regimen. If your hair has a similar curl pattern to this, get ready to bring a bit more structure to your style without going completely product free.


#46 Chic Curly Shag with Soft Volume
Located right above the shoulders, this cut presents some fullness that is somewhat surprising given the fine hair type, but a lot of this is due to the soft layering that moves without compromising the fullness. The curls hug the face, which is especially complimentary to oval and heart-shaped faces, offering a flattering frame that emphasizes features without overshadowing them. I see the density is reading fuller than it might actually be, which indicates the cut is doing the right work in the right areas. The right styling products will keep definition and control the frizz at a very manageable level, and the effort-to-reward ratio here is actually great.


#47 Bold Curly Shag with Rich Auburn Tones
This haircut is slightly above the shoulders and is a rich auburn color which is very lively. The curls look most lively here, and the layered texture provides volume and movement which fine hair lacks without assistance. The face-framing layers soften the look, and those soft layers compliment and suit most face shapes, so this is a pretty versatile option. The warm rich auburn color will require a bit of upkeep because of the nature of reds, but the cut is low-maintenance. Overall the impression is modern and lively. The warmth of color and curls is very attractive.


#48 Dynamic Curly Shag with Lively Texture
When styled, these loose curls give off an almost wavy appearance because of the different subtle colour highlights. The layers are shaped in such a way that creates a pattern and volume in the curls. The design is made for hair that is a little finer, and adds a soft, bouncy, and lively feel to the hair. It works well for round or oval shaped faces as it helps to maintain a good balance and volume around the face. While this style is intended to look effortless, a routine styling will make the hair look great.


#49 Chic Curly Shag with Defined Volume
The bangs transform the entire feel of this cut from a usual curly shag to something a little more unique, as well as soften her features. Well-defined curls offer both volume and movement, and the shoulder-length layers add shaping to the overall look and beautifully frame heart and oval face shapes. There is a constructive focus on the layers, which create a lively silhouette that provides varied interest from every angle. Finer hair has more upkeep to maintain the definition of the curls, but the cut is strong enough to facilitate styling, rather than starting from scratch.


#50 Dynamic Curly Shag with Lively Volume
We use fine layering all around the shoulders so that we are not taking away the density fine-haired clients appreciate so much. And with naturally curly hair of that density, you will always have that youthful and playful face framing bounce that looks great every time. I am really appreciating the shape and the confidence and ease that this gives off, not like it was styled to the inch of it’s life. Some would say defining the curls might be a crime; I would disagree with the right cut, and I prefer to do the work.
