Can Optima find a hairstyle that works with this face and natural curls?


What Optima noticed
The subject possesses an oval face shape framed by long, naturally curly hair. In its unstructured state, volume expands outward around the sides, softening the facial silhouette. Optima selected Defined Layered Curls with Face-Framing Shape to introduce tiered layers that reduce excess side weight and define individual curls while preserving the natural texture and facial identity.
Rather than fighting the natural wave or curl pattern, Optima removes bulk from the perimeter while leaving length where the texture can naturally express definition.
The Transformation Breakdown
- Introduced tiered layers to reduce excess side volume
- Enhanced individual curl definition and hydration texture
- Structured the perimeter to frame the cheekbones and jawline
- Balanced overall silhouette to highlight natural oval proportions
- Natural jawline, cheekbones, and facial bone structure preserved
- Authentic eye gaze, smile, and facial expression
- Natural hair color, tone, and curl pattern
- Skin tone, natural complexion, and outdoor lighting
