What are French curly braids?

French curly braids run straight from the root as neat braids, and the curls begin below the braid. They are usually made with curly braiding hair, so the ends fall in defined spirals instead of loose, wispy strands.

Choosing length and curl

Length matters because the curls need room to fall, and mid-back to waist length is a popular choice. Tell us the braid length, the curl length and how full you want the ends, and send a reference photo so we can match it.

How to care for French curly braids

Curly ends tangle more easily than straight ones, so avoid rubbing them against clothing and sleep with the braids loosely tied under a satin bonnet. Refresh the curls with a little water and a light mousse, and keep heavy oils away from the braids to prevent build-up.

What is French curl braiding hair?

French curl hair is a type of braiding hair made with long, defined spiral curls. In a French curly braid the braid runs from the root and the spiral curls fall from the end, so the style combines a neat braided top with bouncy curls below. The hair is lightweight and comes in different lengths and colours, which we can discuss when you message us. We confirm in your quote whether the hair is included.

Choosing braid size and curl length

You can choose the braid size and how much curl hangs below it. Small braids give a refined look and take longer. Medium braids are a balanced middle choice. Larger braids are quicker and bolder. Curl length changes the whole look: a short curl end looks neat and sporty, while a long curl end looks dramatic and flowing. Many people choose the curl to start at mid-back or lower so the spirals have space to move. Send a reference photo so we can see the proportions you like.

Styling French curly braids

Wear them down to show off the curls, pin the top section back for a half-up look, or gather the braids into a high ponytail with the curls hanging. A wide headband or silk scarf also frames the face nicely. Keep styles loose rather than tight, so the roots are not under constant pull.

Keeping the curls defined

Curls tend to lose definition when they dry out or get tangled. Before bed, gather the curls loosely and cover them with a satin bonnet. If they need refreshing, dampen them lightly with water and use a small amount of light mousse. Do not brush dry curls, because brushing breaks the spiral shape and causes frizz. When you wash, keep the curls out of the way, concentrate on the scalp, rinse well and let everything dry completely.

What to bring and what to expect

Arrive with clean, detangled, fully dry hair unless we tell you otherwise, and send reference photos ahead of time so we can confirm the style. The appointment is long, so plan to be comfortable and have a charged phone and a drink. We tell you the estimated time and the quote before we start.

Taking them down

Plan the take-down before new growth tangles, usually at the end of the four to six weeks. Remove the braids gently and detangle with conditioner. If you want a fresh set, message us to rebook.
