Why Finding the Right Curly Hair Stylist Matters

Why Finding the Right Curly Hair Stylist Matters. 

By Michelle Brisson

Curly hair is beautiful, unique—and it deserves a haircut that respects its texture, shape, and movement. But not every stylist is trained to work with curls the right way. That’s why choosing a curl-savvy stylist is one of the most important decisions you can make for your hair.

Curly Hair Requires Specialized Training: Curls don’t behave like straight or wavy hair—and cutting them with standard techniques can lead to uneven shape, frizz, or unwanted shrinkage. As a stylist trained in both the DevaCurl Cutting Method and the Cado Cut, I use techniques specifically designed to enhance curl patterns and shape your hair in a way that complements how it naturally falls.

These methods involve cutting curls dry, in their natural state, so we can see exactly how each coil will live and move. It’s not just a haircut—it’s curl architecture.

Consistency is Key: Trim Every 2–4 Months To keep your curls looking their best, regular trims are essential. Curls can lose shape, become weighed down, or tangle more easily when they’re not maintained. I recommend reshaping your curls every 2 to 4 months, depending on your curl type and goals.

Add Deep Moisture to Your Routine: Healthy curls are hydrated curls. For a luxurious boost of shine and softness, add a deep moisturizing treatment to your appointment. I use the Saryna Key Moisture Mask, made with pure African shea butter, to deeply condition and nourish your curls—leaving them bouncy, shiny, and frizz-free.

Book Your Curl Experience: Whether you’re embracing your natural texture for the first time or just need a fresh shape, I’d love to help you love your curls.📅 Book now at michellebrissonhair.ca or send me a message to chat about your hair goals.
