Curvaceous Spirals

Show off your spirals with a curl-enhancing hairstyle. Combined with your short haircut, spirals will give your hair a ton of movement.

For this look, good prep is just as important as the styling products you use. The Redken Curvaceous line is dedicated to haircare products for waves, curls and spirals, so your spirals look their best by the time you use your styling products.

Applying a gentle Curvaceous No Foam Highly Conditioning Cleanser will help retain as much moisture as possible in your curls, and following it up with Curvaceous Conditioner for Curly & Wavy Hair, focused on the mid-lengths and ends, will further hydrate your hair.

For defined curls, layer Curvaceous Curl Refiner Moisturizing & Curl-Defining Cream on top of Curvaceous High-Hold Gel. The former adds moisture and targets unruly areas while the latter promotes springy hold and definition. For protection against frizz, mist Curvaceous CCC Spray on hair.

Finger Waves

Add some eye-catching texture to short haircuts by creating sculpted finger waves. To modernize the classic short hairstyle made famous by flappers, leave the ends of your hair natural.

Find out how to achieve these heatless waves using only a comb, hair clips and two styling products—Hardwear 16 Super-Strong Sculpting Hair Gel and Forceful 23 Super Strength Hairspray—in this video. The hair gel molds the waves and keeps them in place, while the hairspray helps prevent frizz in humid weather.

Blunt Bob

The sophisticated, short bob hairstyle never goes out of style. It’s particularly flattering on those with thin hair, since the blunt cut adds volume, and those with square jawlines, since the cut shows off a strong jaw.

When it comes to styling short hair in the form of a sleek bob, it’s all about the blowout. Start with a heat protectant on damp hair, followed by a mousse to add volume. Pillow Proof Blow Dry Express Primer Spray not only protects hair from heat damage, it helps cut down on drying time, too. Full Frame 07 All Over Volumizing Mousse acts as a heat protectant and anti-humidity insurance. Don’t forget to create a deep side part, and then blow dry your hair from roots to ends.
