Bantu Knots for TWA

Cropped Curls
Modern variations on the classic bob, this style is ideal for curly hair. Ask your stylist to cut short layers around the neckline, with longer face-framing coils on top. This allows you to play with various styling techniques ranging from middle partings to faux hawks.
Bob with Bangs
A bob with bangs is an adorable and easy way to create an eye-catching look for any occasion. Add an accent of color for added drama.
Elegant and Feminine Choppy Layers
Ask your stylist to cut choppy layers all along your length for an elegant and feminine style. Choppy layers are flattering and easy to style using texturizing spray and some scrunching. Adding fades at the temples will balance out this texture look for an elegant and feminine style perfect for special events or business casual looks. This look could also work well as part of an updo style for weddings or other formal functions.

A stacked bob with more prolonged ringlets on one side is an attractive and low-maintenance way to show off your beautiful curl pattern and soften the contours of your face. Plus, this asymmetrical haircut requires minimal upkeep!
Mop Haircut
A mop haircut is an iconic style that complements almost all textures. Use a texturizing product to lightly tease your curls for a lived-in appearance and more defined definition. Pair this look with a high or low fade and neatly shaven facial hairs for a rock star look.
Choppy Curls with a Short Pixie Cut
Acknowledging your naturally curly texture with this choppy and spiky style is easy with a short pixie cut, simply trimming away at the sides and back of your hair. Hence, it has shorter layers than its top sections for an edgy appearance. Just use high-quality styling gel with a solid hold to maintain those coils!
Wavy and Choppy Bob with a Blonde Hue
Use an alluring, wavy, and choppy bob with an ash-blonde hue for a pleasing effect. The cool-toned shade helps highlight ringlets, while the stylish side fade adds an eye-catching element. For an informal style, sweep your choppy curls off one side for a flirty and feminine finish.
Iconic Bob with Choppy Style
A bob is one of women’s most iconic short and curly hairstyles, often with its signature choppy style that resembles pageboy with heavy middle parting for added drama and modernity. To add even more depth and dimension, add highlights to your locks for even greater size and depth.
