When paired with a good curl product, curly hair is the perfect wash-and-wear hair.
#18: Long Beachy Layers with Middle Part Bangs

#26: Long-Length Razored Shag with Light Bangs
Ditch the unflattering one-length cut for a long-length razored shag with bangs. Razor cutting the hair helps to shape the hair in a more natural-looking way and makes it easier to customize a look for each woman. Blending bangs into face-framing layers will help to accent your facial features and give you a more complementary look when hair is put up. For added volume, use a dry texture spray throughout the hair for lift.
#27: Undercut Pixie Bob
Less hair means less work, so try out a pixie bob with an undercut style if you want an easy but beautiful style.

Consider a shorter shag with curtain bangs if you have messy, thin hair in need of volume, and movement.

#41: Twist Out Style on Kinky Hair
Kinky hair holds shape perfectly, so a great wash-and-go option is a twist-out style. Twisting the hair into sections while wet and allowing it to dry will help to create a different curl pattern than you usually have. Use a good twisting product such as Mielle Organics Pomegranate & Honey Twisting Soufflé to hold and enhance your twists. Once twists are dried, you can go through and separate them for a more voluminous look.
Wash-and-go hairstyles look gorgeous with minimal effort of styling and maintenance. These come in any cut and length—from short to long, with or without layers and fringe.
Of all haircut features, curtain bangs can be very versatile and easy to style. Canada-based stylist Izzy Hausser says, “These have a diversity of length, width, and texture to fit any cut. They add shape and personality and can be customized and changed as the wearer sees fit.”
Despite having a wash-and-go haircut, minimum styling is still required.
Hausser explains, “A blow dryer and a brush will smooth bangs out and shape them within seconds. Curly hair types must have a small amount of smoothing cream or serum in the fringe before blow-drying. All in all, it should only take 2-4 minutes.”
Consult a skilled stylist to customize your haircut. The bangs and front layers must enhance your best facial features. They must be manageable, so the style fits your lifestyle, too.
