Shortcurlsand coils are versatile enough to be braided, twisted, and wrapped into plenty of double tap-worthy styles.

(Solanges platinum blonde color adds an ethereal spin.)

To style this look, use a natural hair sponge, which can help gently define your curls.

“The curls act as a frame for your face and add volume to your look.”

This look is cute, easy to style, and doesnt require much restyling the next day.
