A Southern lady knows how to accessorize, from her heirloom jewelry to her bold red lip. But if she’s a curly girl, she knows her greatest accessory is God-given and sticks by her, rain or shine. Her precious curls! Whether tousled waves, bouncy spirals, or springy coils, curly hair is like your most uninhibited friend—vivacious, plucky, and often unpredictable. She can be the center of attention in any room, in a good way—or, on humid days, in a not-so-good way. Curls aren’t one-size-fits-all, nor are they afraid to make you work to stay in their good graces. That’s why we’re loving short curly hair. With a well-chosen short haircut, curly hair can reach its full potential with half the effort. It’s relatively low maintenance—as far as temperamental curly locks go—and lets you play up your texture and volume. These short hairstyles for curly hair navigate the tricky path to perfectly coiffed, defined curls, whether you’re into pixie cuts, crops, bobs, or lobs. It’s time to give your spirals new life with a fresh short ‘do.
