#1: Mid-Length Curled Hairstyle with Inner and Perimeter Layers
Consider a mid-length curled hairstyle with inner and perimeter layers. If you have thick curly hair, it can help you to get inner and perimeter layering. This way, you can de-bulk without a lot of top layers that will create fullness. You will create a softness through the hair and a nice perimeter shape. Style with a curl cream or balm for a moveable hold.
#2: Curled with Burnt Orange Tones
The hairstyle features a curled style with burnt orange tones. Ask for a voluminous style, with hints of 90s supermodel blowout and Hollywood glam if you love the curled style. The hairstyle can be achieved either in a salon or at home. You will need to freshly wash your hair, use a super solid root-boosting spray like Lift from Hairstory, and a round brush. Also, a blow dryer with both hot and cold settings is necessary. Start by sectioning your hair into vertical Mohawk clips. Then, begin the blow-drying from the bottom, gradually working your way up. Set your hair in a curl using a cool shot for added body and shine.
#3: Thick and Voluminous Golden Blonde Curls
Thick and voluminous golden blonde curls are a stunning and glamorous hairstyle that radiates luxury and beauty. These luscious curls are created using a 1-inch wand iron and the appropriate hair products. To make sure your style lasts all day, use two styling aids. Start by applying a foam or a mousse onto your hair before blow-drying. Finally, set the hairstyle with a flexible hold hairspray. The thick and voluminous curls add an opulent feel, making this hairstyle perfect for special occasions.
#4: Champagne Blonde Curled Hairstyle
If you want a fresh look, try this champagne blonde curled hairstyle. The off-center part makes the style unique and chic. A champagne blonde shade adds warmth to your hair and complements many skin tones. Loose curls make your hair soft, full, and lively.
#5: Curled Balayage
Give your blonde a boost with a gorgeous curled balayage! All you need to rock this look is to ask for a bright, buttery balayage, then finish with a curling iron.
#6: Center Parted Long Curled Hairstyle
The center-parted long curled hairstyle is a classic and elegant choice that complements various face shapes. When styling, it’s better to use a curling iron with a larger barrel to achieve loose, flowing curls that add movement and softness to the overall look.
#7: Wavy Thick Curled Hairstyle
Transform your strands into a wavy thick, curled hairstyle. If you have a natural wave, you can learn to utilize and embrace it. Try taking the length up a bit to make it more manageable, and ask for some medium layering to encourage your waves. Use a curl-enhancing product. I recommend using a metal barrel round brush to dry your hair. If you can, try twisting the section, you’re drying with the brush to smooth and shape each wave. Use hairspray to set the style.
#8: Dark Rooted Blonde Balayage Curled Hairstyle
First, let’s talk about this dark-rooted blonde balayage hairstyle with a side part. So you can ask for this look or recreate it yourself! This hairstyle is great if you want to add body while also creating soft curls that have movement. For added texture and dimension, go for an all-over curl or focus on face-framing sections. To keep your curls intact all day, use a hairspray with a flexible hold. Try Living Proof Style Lab Flex Hairspray. Make sure to use your fingers instead of a brush when styling.
#9: Tousled Golden Blonde Curled Hair
If you want a hairstyle to compliment your natural curls, one of the best tips I can give you is to add shorter layers. This style allows you to keep your length while removing weight to allow your curls to spring up. The side part adds some asymmetry and frames the face. While the collarbone length keeps the hair from being too heavy or long. Ask for your stylist’s recommendation on product and styling to get the most out of your style.
#10: Red Curls
My favorite thing is that it looks like controlled natural curls there is volume without frizz. For styling, use a 1″ wand or the Curl Bar by Hot Tools. Use a heat-protective setting spray for firmer curls. To get wide waves, spread the curls horizontally instead of brushing them.
#11: Long Curled Hair with Long Curtain Bangs
Long curled hair with long curtain bangs is a great look for ladies with glasses! It’s perfect for framing your face and giving you a more feminine look. Make sure to keep your curls moisturized, as they can quickly dry out. Also, use strong hairspray to keep your curls in place all day. You can use a curling iron to get tighter curls and more volume if you have time. For the best results, use a heat-protectant spray before styling. Be sure to style your bangs carefully to ensure your glasses fit properly!
#12: Textured Beach Waves
This curled hairstyle is best described as textured beach waves. My favorite thing about this look is that it looks effortless and anyone can wear it. When styling, use a 1-inch wand to curl, leaving the ends out. Add some texture spray for the finishing touch.
#13: Bob with Bangs and Curls
Craving for a bouncy-looking short hairstyle? This chin-length bob with bangs and curls will satisfy your needs. Hair foam and gel will be ideal for adding definition to your darker locks.
#14: Curled Vintage Glam Style
Opt for vintage curls. In order to achieve this vintage Hollywood glam style, you definitely need the length of your hair to touch your shoulder or longer. The whole point of the style is to have big, soft, luscious curls. I also recommend this look for medium to thicker-haired clients. Thin-haired clients can still achieve this look, but you may want to consider clip-in extensions to really create that fullness!
To create curling iron hairstyles like this one, I sectioned the front and sides away from the back. I started at the nape or bottom of the head and clipped the rest of her hair out of my way above the section. The reason I start at the bottom as opposed to the top is so I don’t bump into pieces that are already curled, which could lead to re-curling everything again. Starting at the bottom allows for quick, clean styling. Each section going up the head was about an inch thick and an inch wide.
#15: Very Long Blonde Curled Hair with a Side Part
Very long blonde curled hair with a side part is a glamorous hairstyle that can be worn for a variety of events. For instance, a side part with tight, bouncy curls would look amazing for a wedding or prom. Looser curls are a great casual everyday look. I personally recommend using heat only a couple of times a week to prevent damaging your long hair.
#16: Medium-Length Curled Ends with Balayage Highlights
Medium-length curled ends with balayage highlights are a simple but elegant look! To keep your hair curled all day, I highly suggest finding a strong-hold hairspray. Your style will be locked in all day.
#17: Blonde Curled Blowout Bob
Be ready for any occasion with a blonde curled blowout bob. A trendy blonde bob is one of the most striking hairstyles that will never go out of style. If you have curly hair, a defining gel and defuser will be helpful to keep your curls looking full of life. If you have straight hair, a small curling iron will do the job, but don’t forget the heat protectant.
#18: Gray Balayage
Gray balayage on dark hair is the best way to blend natural grays while still coloring your hair for fun. Like most balayage applications, this will allow your hair to grow out easily. So you don’t have to worry about covering your gray hair as your roots grow out. Be sure to ask for a color-depositing conditioner to use at home. It helps to maintain the cooler tone.
#19: Amazing Side-Parted Chocolate Hair
Consider the rich and charming shape of side-parted chocolate hair. Opt for long layers and a chin-length face frame. It will enable you to curl or set your hair in a beautiful tumble of waves. The side part will give you a nice lift on the top. If you want to keep your hair a chocolate brunette, a sealer can be applied every 6 to 8 weeks. The sealer gives a semi-permanent glossy color.
#20: Dark Blonde Curled Hair
I get asked by clients all the time how to get a look like this at home. All you need is a curling iron and a brush. The best way to ensure your curls stay all day is to let your curls set for about 20 minutes. Then, brush them out and spray them with hairspray.
#21: Stunning Blonde Balayage Curls
Go for a trending style with stunning blonde balayage curls. One of the biggest advantages of having balayage is its natural look and soft grow-out. Balayage is one of the most natural lightening techniques you can do. It requires little upkeep but the results are stunning and beautiful.
#22: Long Brunette Curled Ends
Be a trendsetter with long brunette hair and curled ends. Either styled with a blow-dryer and round brush or a big barrel curling iron, big bouncy hair is always trending. Thick hair can be heavy and pull out the curl. To avoid this, have your stylist take out weight so it’s lighter and holds the style better. Use some working hairspray to finish.
#23: Perfectly Curled Mid-Length Hair
Perfectly curled mid-length hair looks good on all hair types and faces. You should try to leave lots of darker tones mixed in with a blonde color to create dimension in your hair color, making your curls pop that much more. If you want to have your curls hold their style all night long, make sure to wait before brushing your curls out and letting them cool for a few minutes, then grab the strongest hold hairspray you can find and dance the night away.
#24: Super Long Blonde Curled Ends
Be ready for any occasion with super long blonde curled ends. If you need to have more body and volume on top, I suggest cutting long layers and removing some weight. If you wear your hair without layers, your hair will not hold a curl and will fall flat. Use a big curling iron to get a big bouncy mane for a glamorous look.
#25: Side-Parted Curled Hair
Try side-parted curled hair if you’re looking for a gorgeous look that is simple! Definitely go for this style if one of your factors to consider is styling time. Throw a few curls in your hair and you’re ready for the day.
#26: Extra Long and Extra Thick Curled Hair
Be ready for any occasion with extra long and extra thick curled hair. The best way to prep your hair before you curl is to use a heat protector to prevent damage. You can use a large barrel curling iron to get big voluminous soft curls. When you wear your hair curly, your stands will have more movement and body for a dramatic look.
#27: Perfect Curls for Medium-Length Hair
If you want perfect curls for your medium-length hair, then look no further! If you want to use a good holding product then my top picks would be a good mousse and a good holding hairspray. Your stylist will be able to easily pick the product that will work best for you.
#28: Dark Red Curled Bob for Older Women
If you’re an older woman, consider a dark red curled bob. Don’t be afraid to rock your beautiful natural texture. Cutting your locks shorter will take off dead weight and make your curls big and bouncy. Having short layers will give your hair body and lift right at your crown for a volumized style.
#29: Creamy Blonde Perfect Curls
Have the perfect creamy blonde hair color with curls and make your hairstyle really pop. When you curl your hair with the curling iron it gives your fine hair the illusion of body and fullness. Curling often, however, can be damaging so make sure you are using a heat protector and do conditioning treatments weekly.
#30: Effortless Blonde Curled Long Hair
Blonde curled long hair is beautiful but definitely not effortless. You will need to take time to dry and curl your long locks but the payoff is an enchanting style. I recommend face-framing layers, which will be helpful to achieve soft curls. If you like to wear your hair up, the shorter pieces around your face look amazing left out.
#31: Soft Curled Shag
A softly curled shag is one of the most requested cuts this season. With this style, you’ll have lots of layers, and tons of texture, and you’ll get to work with your natural texture. Don’t forget to ask your stylist which styling products work best with this cut. Working with your hair type, they will know what products work best for you. Could possibly be a cream, mousse, or pomade.
#32: Side-Swept Curls
These side-swept curls are ready to make a statement! Achieve this stunning look to grant you a more defined, less frizzy hairstyle. Cut your dark hair where it reaches beyond your collarbones for a better shape and bouncy edge, creating stunning hairstyles for curly hair.
#33: Sleek High Ponytail with Curls
Sleek high ponytails with curls emit young and playful vibes. Girls with thick hair can easily pull all or some of their hair up and jazz the style up with some large curls. For a clean sleek look, use a pomade gently throughout the hair when combing and brushing into the ponytail.
#34: Cascading Curls for a Wedding
Cascading curls for a wedding make a soft, glamorous style that feels and looks airy and light. Bridal artist Kayla VanderZiel of Minnesota used a 1-inch curling iron to create it.
“Once the curls cooled, I sprayed a movable hairspray to open up each curl with my fingers. I did a light horizontal and diagonal pulling for soft, voluminous curls,” she points out. “This technique gives the style extra security that it’ll last a day.”
#35: Long Curled Hairstyle With Lowlights
Stylist Kirsten Borst took this long and luscious brown hair and gave it some lowlights and curled it for an elegant overall look. A length like this looks great with a beautiful high ponytail, too.

Spice up your tresses with voluminous waves and an added radiant shade! This swirly blonde works well with your cut that grazes your collarbones. It exposes the depth of your natural black base, showing off a dimensional result.
#42: Purple Curls
These purple curls were created by stylist Julie Anderson of Carol Stream, IL. This style works best on thick curly hair and long layered haircuts.
“The curls were achieved with a 1 and 1/4 inch marcel iron held open while the ends were left loose, adding to this edgy hair color with a modern finish,” says Anderson.
She goes on to explain, “the hair was prepped with Pureology Silk Bodifier and Alterna Invisible Roller, blown out with a round brush, curled in 1×2 inch sections, and fingered through to finish once cooled. Kenya 13 Perfect Medium Spray was used to give a touchable hold.”
#43: Purple to Pink Curls with a Side Part
These purple to pink curls with a side part on medium hair were created by hairstylist and colorist Patricia Belding of Winnipeg. “This is my take on galaxy hair. Deep purples and magenta definitely pair so well together,” explains Belding.
#44: Curled Layered A-Line Bob
This curled layered A-line bob was created by hairstylist Nina Monique of Suisun, CA.
“This short curly hair is great for almost any face shape,” says Monique. “The way the front of the hair shapes and slims the face makes it a great cut for round or square face shapes. You can even wear this style straight.”
Products that create volume and texture are going to be the best to use for this cut.
This style is great for just about any hair type. “How long it takes to style depends on your hair type,” she adds. “It will take less time for women with fine and thin hair to style than it would for women with thicker and fuller hair.”
Natural curly hair works great for this style as long as it’s properly cut according to the amount of curl in the hair and styled with the right products.
#45: Highlighted Curls
These blendable, highlighted curls for a medium-length brunette were created by professional hair and makeup artist Karilyn Turley of Dallas, TX.
“All highlights look breathtaking when your hair is curled with a 1 1/4 inch hot barrel,” says Turley.
Turley’s favorite styling products for this look are:
- Cat Walk root lift
- 2. Kenra thermal styling spray (when hair is wet + dry)
- Redken spray wax before curling to keep the hair looking smooth.
- Finish with a finishing spray!
“My favorite trick to achieve a volume in this medium length hair is putting Velcro rollers in my client’s hair after I blow dry, letting them cool for a few minutes, then watching their eyes pop and how much lift they achieve,” she adds.
#46: Fun & Bouncy Curls with Purple Tones
“These are fun and bouncy curls,” exclaims stylist Bethany Prickett of Brisbane, QLD. “I love that the client has layers of various purples tones through her hair. This creates depth and adds pizazz to this common hairstyle
To recreate this look, Prickett says you will need fairly long hair because when curling your hair the curl will end up a bit above your natural length. “This look was created with a normal GHD (not thick plate) iron, curling the hair all in one direction,” she explains.
She adds, “if you have frizzy but soft, thin hair, you will need to blow dry White Sands Liquid Texture Medium Hold into the hair. This will ensure the curls do not drop too much and stay perfectly bouncy without the crunch.”
#47: Undone Curls
These undone curls on curled hair are effortless. They were created by hairstylist Kendall Bowers of Sherwood Park, AB. “It’s more of a wave pattern than the traditional ringlet style curl,” explains Bowers.
“The “undone” look is trending right now and this style is one of my favorites. This look combines red carpet waves with an undone twist,” she adds.
To achieve this look, Bowers recommends using a mouse or gel on towel-dried hair and blow-drying the products in. Then, use a 1-inch or larger curling wand to achieve the waves. “The key to the wave is twisting the hair as it revolves around the barrel of the iron as opposed to wrapping it flat. Once the technique is mastered, it can be done on most lengths of hair.”
#48: Versatile Curls
“I love this curled haircut and I feel like it is really versatile,” says stylist Lauren Adame of San Jose, CA.
Adame started off by cleansing and conditioning the hair with the Boosta shampoo and conditioner, then detangled with the 7 Seconds leave-in conditioner. “I used the Boosta spray all over the hair and Liquid Volume on her roost. I completely rough-dried her hair and curled it with Max Control hairspray,” she explains.
#49: Blonde Curls on a Bob Cut
“This is a full head of blonde foils on a concave bob, finished off with some curls,” explains freelance hairdresser Emma Hodder of Leopold, VIC.
“I love the way the blonde and natural color sit so nicely together in the curls. This look suits curled, straightened, or naturally textured hair,” she adds.
Hodder notes that the curls were done by using a hair wand. “The wand is an easy and quick way to add curls and you can create a range of curls with one. I recommend using a hairspray after curling. If you use it before curling, the hair might be stiff and crunchy.”
#50: Go-To Curls
This is my favorite go-to hairstyle with curls for women with straight hair that just want a little something different. I used a 1-inch iron to create the soft curls. My advice for women wanting to achieve this look would be to use a heat protecting setting spray. I love Redken Hot Sets! I sectioned the hair into four parts, then took one-inch sections to curl. This look is a little time-consuming, but it’s well worth it. It works on any hair type and looks great with short hair as well!
#51: Flirty & Pretty Curled Hairstyle
This pretty curled hairstyle was created by licensed cosmetologist Micaela Troyer of Grand Blanc, MI.
“My favorite thing about this style is how the different colors throughout the curls catch your eye and add more texture and dimension to the look,” states Troyer.
Troyer recommends creating this look on day two or three hair because slightly dirty hair usually tends to hold curl better. “However, if you prefer to wash your hair daily or every other day, I recommend dirtying up your hair a bit with a good texturizing spray or flexible hold hairspray. Regardless of what day you wash your hair, always using a thermal setting spray/heat protectant. I used Hot Sets 22 Mist by Redken and her curls lasted all night,” she notes.
“All you need to do is spray the thermal setting mist on dry hair before curling, lightly comb through if needed, and curl,” she explains. “For this look, I used a 1-inch Sam Villa Marcel curling iron, but a curling wand or normal spring-loaded curling iron would work well also. I typically alternate direction of curls, always curling away from the face around the hairline.”
#52: Curled, All-Over Blonde
This curled, all-over-blonde is simply gorgeous. I used a 1 1/2-inch Marcel Hot Tools curling iron to create the waves, curling away from the face. I ran my fingers through the curls once the whole head was curled and cooled. We set the finished look with Kenra Hairspray #25. I have created curls like this on all hair types, even kinky curly hair. Hair that is shoulder length or longer is recommended for this particular look.
#53: Curled Away
Display the subtle layers of your ombre locks by slaying a curled away hairstyle. If you have an olive skin complexion, the light brown shade will look flattering on you.
#54: Curled Bob
It’s so easy to fall in love with this curled bob. The added texture truly makes a difference. Thanks to the hair colorist Samantha Pooser from Virginia Beach, VA for sharing her work. She popped some “teasy highlights and a deeper glaze for added dimension and warmth.”
#55: Medium-Length Tousled Waves
A messy-textured style will do you great! Incorporate tousled waves to your golden blonde mane, and you won’t regret it. These bring out unpredictable flows, giving your mid-length chop a life.
#56: Braided and Curled Half Up
It’s the diamond infinity braid that makes a curled half-up even better! Extra texture creates a softer finish, ideal for a dark-rooted platinum blonde shade. This proves that updos with curls create the perfect curled hairstyles for prom, homecoming or graduation. Indeed, braids and curls make a gorgeous combination!
“This gorgeous half updo causes people to double-take,” says hairstylist Sydney Hardy of Annapolis, MD. “My favorite thing about the diamond infinity braids is that you have a hair accessory made out of your very own hair! The diamond infinity braid creates a point of interest in a simple half-up half-down look without having a bulky accessory pinned into it.”
Hardy says that for curly braided hairstyles, you need to have relatively long hair. “This half up half down look accentuated by the diamond infinity braid will complement the natural beauty of your hair.”
She used mostly Kenra products to create this look.
#57: Retro Curls
When you say voluminous hairstyles, retro curls are at the top of the list. These big bold curls are unbeatable, especially if done on long, smooth, and blonde tresses. Its luscious result is totally a hair goal! This certain fancy hairstyle can be your go-to look for any formal or casual party.
