Okay I gotta spill something Ive been dying to chat about… you know how my curls have been growing out forever now? Well Ive been totally falling back in love with long curly hairstyles and its making me feel all kinds of confident lately.
Long curly hair just has this magic where it makes every day feel a little more special, dont you think?
Youll love hearing this I was scrolling Pinterest the other night (you know how that goes, one pin leads to fifty) and found all these gorgeous long curly hairstyles that had me texting you screenshots at like midnight haha. Some are super natural, others have layers or highlights… I kept thinking “oh this would look amazing on you” or “I need to try that next wash day”. If your curls are long too or youre growing them out these are the ones Im obsessed with and think youd totally rock as well.
Speaking of, remember that beach trip we took last summer? I just let my curls air dry with a little sea salt spray and wore them loose the whole weekend… you kept saying how jealous you were of the volume and we ended up taking like a hundred selfies with the wind making them all wild. Then there was the time I added those subtle highlights and went to that party… this guy I kinda liked couldnt stop playing with the ends and going “your hair is insane”…
10+ Long Curly Hairstyles You’ll Be Obsessed With
Defined Long Curls with Middle Part
Defined curls with a clean middle part frame your face so nicely.
Loose Long Curls with Soft Layers
Soft layers in loose curls add so much movement… you know how it makes your hair swing when you turn your head? I got layers cut last year and its been a game changer for volume without weight.
Long Curly Hair with Side Part
Switching to a side part totally changes the whole look… gives it that old Hollywood glamour feel. The curls cascade over one shoulder and its so dramatic in the best way. I do this when Im feeling a bit more dressed up.
Long Curly Hair with Face-Framing Pieces
Face-framing pieces soften everything and highlight your features… you know how it draws attention to your eyes? I always pull a couple curls forward after diffusing because it makes the whole style feel more intentional. Plus its great for second day hair.
Long Curly Hair with Subtle Highlights
Subtle highlights in long curls add dimension without being too much. The lighter pieces catch the sun and make your curls pop even more. I got honey ones done last spring and they grew out so nicely.
Long Curly Layers with Natural Texture
Layers embracing all that natural texture are goals… lets your curls bounce at different lengths. Feels lighter on your head but still full. My favorite for when I just wanna shake it out and go.
Long Curly Hair with Soft Bangs
Soft curly bangs with long hair frame everything so sweetly. The bangs blend into the rest and add that cute factor. Ive been tempted to try this but scared to commit to bangs you know?
Long Curly Hair with Natural Volume
This natural volume look is what I aim for on my best hair days… just letting your curls do their thing with maybe a little diffuser action. You know how some mornings you wake up and its already perfect? Thats the vibe here. I love how it feels so full and bouncy without any extra work. Makes me feel like I can take on anything when my hair looks this good naturally.
Long Curly Hair Worn Down Naturally
Just wearing it down all natural is sometimes the best… no part no fuss just big beautiful curls. On good curl days this feels like pure magic. Makes me wanna flip my hair dramatically all day haha.
Long Curly Hair Questions You Might Have Too
How do you keep long curls healthy? Deep conditioning every week cutting split ends regularly and sleeping on satin… little things but they add up girl. My curls have never been happier since I started being consistent.
Does long curly hair take forever to dry? Yeah sometimes but diffusing on low heat helps a ton. Or I just air dry when I have time… gives the best natural definition.
What products work best for long curls? Lightweight creams gel for definition and oil on the ends. I avoid heavy stuff or it weighs everything down.
Anyway girl thats all my curly hair rambling for now… you know how excited I get talking about this stuff. Try one of these next time youre doing your hair and let me know how it goes okay? Bet youll feel amazing with your long curls out.
