Wavy Quiff

About the Wavy Quiff

Cut & Silhouette: Description: A voluminous, medium-length style featuring a longer top styled upwards and swept, with shorter, tapered sides. Key Details: The sides are tapered and noticeably shorter than the top and crown, creating a contrasting but blended silhouette. The hair on top is layered to enhance movement and volume. Ear coverage: above-ear (ears exposed). Sideburns: trimmed above the tragus, blending into the hairline. Nape/neckline: Not visible. Length: Overall: Top length approx. 4.5–6 in (11.5–15 cm) from crown to ends. Front: Longest sections at the front are styled upwards and back, measuring about 5-6 in (12.5-15 cm) if flattened. Sides: Tapered gradually from approximately 1.5 in (4 cm) near the top of the side to 0.75 in (2 cm) just above the ear. Back/Nape: Not visible. Fringe: The front sections are swept back and up, not worn as a traditional fringe. If allowed to fall forward, the longest strands would reach approximately 3.5-4 in (9-10 cm) to the eyebrows. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: The front hair is styled off-the-face, swept upwards and predominantly to the viewer's left, creating a loose, voluminous wave/quiff. No traditional fringe is present. Parting: A soft, natural side part is evident, located approximately 1.5 in (4 cm) to the viewer's left of the center. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Wavy (Type 2B), exhibiting distinct C-shaped curves and some straighter sections (Type 2A). Styled Finish: Tousled and voluminous, with a natural, slightly matte finish and some soft shine. Appears styled with a blow dryer to lift the roots and a medium-hold product for shape. Hold level 3/5. Volume & Density: Description: High volume is concentrated at the crown and front, creating significant lift, while the sides maintain medium volume due to their shorter length. Thickness: Thick; dense coverage throughout the visible hair sections. Color: Base Color: Medium brown, neutral-warm tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Subtle, finely woven lighter brown/caramel highlights are present, primarily on the top and front sections, providing dimension and a natural sun-kissed effect. The base color is clearly visible underneath the highlights.
