    Default How to sexify big, red, curly hair?

    I've been blessed (or cursed) with a head of thick, red, curly hair. Although it was hell when I was a kid, I finally learned to tame it and totally love my hair. However, while I often get comments on how "pretty" or even "cute" it is, I don't know how to make it sexy. I think its looks a little too coiffed and "done", but when I try to muss it up I just get a head of frizz.

    I would love a good clubbing, or (when I start) dancing look. My curls are a a very defined, loose ringlet shape and my hair comes to about two inches below my bra line. Straightening my hair is not an option really because its so long and ends up frizzing up anyways.

    If anyone has any good hair styling tips, I would love to know.


    Here's a picture of my hair type...although I think this pic is from when I just woke up so the curls a crushed and not as ringlety. Also my first picture post!!!

    Wow, you don't need to do anything to sexify that.

    You look gorgeous already! I'd kill for your hair.

    Theres got to be like a spray that will give it some shine and fight the frizz. I have wavy hair and I would like to hear some recommendations too.

    I was just thinking by the subject too, why would big red curly hair need more sexy in it? If you want it more tamed though you could try an unfrizz/shine hold spray and maybe rag rollers or curlers on it, since it's naturally curly any curl styling should hold up really well and make things more smooth and controlled. Good luck!

    I have to agree with everyone ! You're hot just the way you are. Maybe try using a serum like Frizz ease or Aveda, that's what I use for my curly hair.

    Awh shucks guys . Thanks for all the nice replies. In a perfect world I'd be able to achieve that awesome "I just had wild crazy sex but was still able to keep my hair beautiful and shiny" type hair. When I shoot for that I get "I just had sex with an electrical socket" hair.

    I wish there was some way to muss up my hair and look sexily disheveled without looking homeless...

    I'll for sure get some good hair serum. I think I've shied away from it because last time I tried it, I used way too much and my hair just looked greasy. Thanks again guys.

    Damn, that hair is what a lot of women pay for.

    Get bangs though.

    As a curly girl, I'm terrified of bangs...

    But also intrigued.

    I have a big forehead, but love my eyes, so maybe bangs would help. Any ideas on how someone with curly hair should wear bangs. I'm guessing long and to the side. Does the curly hair, straight bang look still work or is that too 8th grade?

    I had very long curly hair and bangs. And I either looked like a poodle, if I left it curly, or like I was in 5th grade, if I straightened the bangs.

    Perhaps long bangs, like near your chin so that it would fall in your face, rather than be very defined bangs. Long bangs on you would look very Jessica Rabbit.

    I think getting bangs will be effectively asking for more hair maintenance. Plus-- not to hate, just pointing it out-- Mr. Hyde probably recommended bangs because HE likes bangs. So take it with a grain of salt...



    ETA: I forgot to compliment you. You're freakin' beautiful. That is why I recommend being careful with appearance modifications. Why fix it if it ain't broke?

    Yeah I agree, if you go w/ bangs keep them longer. To help w/ any frizz problems, I've always noticed w/ my own hair that I have to keep getting it trimmed on a regular basis. Although I am very bad at doing this so I end up w/ a lot of frizz problems until I do. Other than that just some anti frizz serum. And You are gorgeous girl, so rock that sexy hair!!

    Don't get bangs!! Wavy frizz-prone hair looks terrible with bangs because you can never keep your bangs looking neat. I used to have bangs and I had to straighten them multiple times a day; otherwise, I wound up with these really stupid-looking short curls and flips on my forehead. And the curly-hair-straight-bangs look doesn't look as sexy and natural as what you've got.

    I agree with everyone else, your hair is hot the way it is.

    You've been blessed chica. But if you want to make it even more sexy,get some layers.

    Actually I recommended it because (and don't take this the wrong way, you're good looking) she has a large forehead and it would make her pretty eyes stand out better.

    Bangs look good on some girls, not so much on others.

    Thanks for all the super nice comments.

    I think I'm going to forego the bangs for now. I usually wear my hair parted on the side, so that helps cover my forehead a bit. And no offense taken Mr. Hyde. I DO have a big forehead. I desperately need a haircut, so I'll get long layers chopped in there.

    So next question then...how do I work the big red hair in a club when I actually get the guts to dance? At the clubs I've been to I've seen a lot of blonde hair in big loose curls and shiny stright brunette hair. On the rare occasion I'll see curly hair done in the "wet look" and red hair in a funky punky cut, but I don't think I've ever seen long, red, curly "mermaid" hair. Is the demand not high? I think I'll have to make a spinoff thread since I have all sorts of questions about what colors/outfits would work with my body/coloring.

    Sorry for the post deluge .

    The fact that you'll be the one and only hot redhead in a club is a PLUS. You don't want to look like everyone else imho.

    I doubt it has anything to do with demand.....you don't see red mermaid hair because so few people have it! It's simply not easy to fake.....whatever you do, don't let someone razor cut your curls....some stylists will tell you that it helps to define curls...uh, no. It creates more frizz-prone hair.....try to find someone who specializes in curly hair. Ouidad.com has a salon listing; they are the best when it comes to curls!

    good god woman, I can't even picture you with "stripper hair piled atop yr head." That would look so ridiculous. You go girl, wear yr hair just like that. Clean, shiny, not frizzy. That is all.

    I have spent my life trying to get my hair to look like yours. Your hair is unbelievably beautiful.

    I don't think there is a thing wrong with your hair. And god - why complicate - wash it, condition it, wear it - recipe for healthy, soft and beautiful hair.

    I also have curly red hair and bangs. Essentially the way it works is I let my hair air dry and then iron the bangs. A fringe is so short that you don't really need to worry about damaging it. It is higher maintenance, but it is a good look for me. I think your hair and face look pretty damn good as is, though

    your hair is beautiful. If I was at an SC, I would seriously spend my whole night's budget on you just because of that hair. When you start dancing, it will definitely make you stand out---in a very good way!

    I have the same hair type, but not that beautiful color! Let it air dry and put some of your favorite brand of curl enhancer in it. This will decrease your frizz and define and shine those wonderful curls and waves.
