Curly hair isn’t straight hair with a twist — it has its own architecture, and it should be cut that way. At MG Hair Studios in Coral Gables, our stylists shape curls curl-by-curl, working with your natural pattern instead of fighting it, so the cut falls right on day one and grows out gracefully.
How we cut curly hair
- Assessment of curl pattern and density first
- Dry cutting where the pattern calls for it (curls shrink when wet — cutting dry shows the true shape)
- Shaping for volume where you want it and control where you don’t
- A styling lesson before you leave so you can repeat the result at home
Who it’s for
Wavy (2A–2C), curly (3A–3C), and coily textures; first-time curly cuts after years of straightening; anyone tired of the triangle shape and shelf layers.
Care at home
Your stylist will build your routine from the Davines LOVE Curl line we use in the salon — Cleansing Cream, Shampoo, Primer, Controller, and Revitalizer — matched to your pattern. Order online or pick up at your visit.
