Why do you cut curly hair dry?

On one head of Curls you can have up to 5 different curl patterns, meaning that when hair dries naturally, the lengths of hair need to be cut to the length and style they will sit. This creates an effortless styling process for the client and no random long hangers here or there.

Why do different stylist cost different amounts?

We offer a tiered pricing structure to help make a salon experience available to all. Acknowledging that each stylist has different skill levels and years of experience, adding value to your experience and overall result.

Is it true I should come with dirty hair to get my hair coloured?

No it’s not true, ideally you should be on day 2 or 3 after wash day. Too much build up can create a barrier to the colour and also make it harder for us to work with (tangles and webbing). On the scalp lightning services, we recommend to leave 3-4 days natural oil pre an appointment.

How often do you wash your hair?

I generally wash my hair every 6-8 days. We recommend 1-2 per week is ideal and achievable after a #maidencurls education session.

Why is my hair breaking and never growing longer?

Your hair can break if it lacks moisture or has protein deficiencies. This education is all apart of our #maidencurls beginners session.

How do you protect your curls while you sleep?

We recommend wearing a LOHY. Sleep Cozy while you sleep/shower, to protect your hair from friction against bedding and to protect it from warm steamy environments.

Can you perm Curly hair?

YES! This is a great technique for any wavy/inconsistent curl friends who wished their hair was less work or could hold a curl for longer.
