If you struggle with getting the perfect face-framing curls without your hair separating or showing awkward part lines when you pull it up, this hair tutorial is for you! 💁‍♀️ One of the biggest tricks is knowing HOW MUCH hair to leave out around your face before curling! Grabbing the right amount of hair makes such a difference in creating those soft, effortless face-framing pieces without leaving gaps or exposing your scalp when you pull the rest of your hair into a ponytail, messy bun, or half up hairstyle. This is especially helpful for fine or thin hair because taking out too much hair can make the rest of your hairstyle look less full. I’m sharing my favorite tips for getting those perfectly placed face-framing curls that add softness, movement, and texture while keeping your hairstyle looking full and balanced. Perfect for everyday hairstyles, wedding guest hair, date nights, or any special occasion! Save this curling tutorial for the next time you style your hair! 🫶🏼
