PREPARING FOR YOUR CURLY CUT
At Head Shed, we specialise in cutting curly hair dry, using a curl-by-curl approach while your hair is in its naturally worn state. This method ensures a balanced and flattering look, tailored to your unique curl pattern.
If you're visiting us for the first time, please be prepared to allow extra time for your appointment, especially if you have longer or thicker hair.
Please ensure your hair is fully clean washing it within 48 hours of your appointment.
Please style your hair using your normal styling products but stay away from heavy oils or butters that can leave a film and weigh down your hair
(shea/coconut/avocado oil)
To help us see your natural curl pattern please avoid brushing out the curls, wearing ponytails, buns, braids, hats, clips, hairbands or anything that will alter your curls.
