About the Curly Afro

Cut & Silhouette: Description: Voluminous, rounded afro/bob shape with an even distribution of tightly coiled curls and a soft, curly fringe. Key Details: The cut maintains a full, rounded silhouette with uniform layering throughout to enhance natural curl volume and shape. No distinct fade, undercut, or disconnect. Ear coverage: over-ear, fully covered by the dense curls. Sideburns: blend seamlessly into the overall curl mass. Nape/neckline: Not visible (occluded by dense curls). Length: Overall: The outer perimeter of the curl mass extends approximately 7–8 in (18–20 cm) from the crown to the lowest points when in its natural, voluminous state. Individual stretched curls would be longer. Front: Voluminous curls extend forward, with the fringe covering the forehead. Sides: Curls extend approximately to the chin level, about 6–7 in (15–18 cm) from the temple. Back/Nape: Not visible. Fringe: Curly fringe, approximately 2.5–3 in (6.5–7.5 cm) when unstretched, resting just above the eyebrows, tapering slightly longer towards the temples. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: Full, curly fringe with an irregular, natural length, styled forward, blending into the voluminous top. Parting: No distinct part visible; hair naturally springs from the crown. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Curly (Type 3C–4A) with tightly coiled, well-defined curls. Styled Finish: Voluminous, natural curl definition with a soft, matte-to-satin finish. Appears to be air-dried or diffused. Hold level 1/5 (light curl cream or leave-in conditioner). Volume & Density: Description: High, even volume distributed throughout the entire head, creating a prominent rounded shape. Thickness: Thick; very dense curl pattern. Color: Base Color: Dark brown, neutral-cool tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Uniform color; no visible highlights or artificial dye.
