Hairstyle for Thick Curly Hair -
5 Variations for Sleek and Chic

Believe it or not, you are blessed if you have thick curly hair. There are many desperately trying to add volume to fine thin hair but can't. Without a doubt they would kill for the thick naturally curly locks you were born with and take for granted.

But that's not to say thick curly hair can't be a pain too. It can turn frizzy, get easily entangled and be otherwise next to impossible to control without a couple of extra arms to manage it all some mornings.

Trust me. Only an appropriate hairstyle for thick curly hair can solve such problems.

To that end here are five variations to consider for the thick and curly strand stressed.

• Layer it: To add more bounce to your thick tresses consider layering it. Layering takes the weight off your hair and makes it light and bouncy. Long, thick curls are easier to maintain, lay better and are just better behaved when layered.

Curly Hair Tip: Curly hair is shine challenged. Especially if it's on the coarse site. A conditioning mask applied weekly will help smooth the surface of your strands making your hair look shinier.

• Straighten it: Wear it straight some days. And it pays to splurge to do so. Get yourself a good chi flat iron straightener. Just don't make this a daily habit. Otherwise you risk ending up with dry, brittle and lifeless hair.

• Grow It: Thick hair tends to be less poofy when it has some length to weigh it down. Plus when it longer you have more styling options. Messy buns, half updos, French twists, braids, rolling up your hair in to beautiful spiral curls are some of the potpourri of styles available to you when it is longer.

Curly Hair Tip: Bobbie pins are a thick haired girl's best friend. Whether you are putting your hair in to a bun or doing all you can to keep those thick tresses off your face bobby pins come in handy to hold things more securely. Just be sure to keep them out of sight best you can as you perfect the art of taming your unruly hair.

• Side Part It: A side part is flattering to all hair types and it's an easy way to change your look. Those with thick hair want to create a side part on a diagonal. It's easy. Simply start above the arch of one eyebrow and extend the part jut a bit toward the opposite side of your head.

• Bang It: Go for cute side swept bangs or lucious bangs to spice up any hairstyle. You can easily create a delightful contrast by straightening those bangs and leaving the rest be its natural curly self.

Curly Hair Tip: Those with thick curly hair do want to take care to avoid short bangs which tend to rise up. A better idea is to trim them right above your lashes.

Also since thick hair is often extremely porous use smoothing shampoos, conditioners and anti frizz serums to deal with it. These will help prevent tangles and tame those unruly locks of yours.

Anyway with these five knockout tips for the strand stressed, who can say thick curly hair is a disaster waiting to happen? Surely not you. Thick curls are gorgeous. Enjoy what you've got as it makes others envious.
