How to find a curly hair salon near you
Most generalist hairdressers cut curls wet, which removes weight you need and creates a triangle shape when the hair dries. A trained curly specialist cuts dry, curl by curl, often using the Rezo or DevaCut method. They also understand low-poo washing, the curly girl method, and how to gloss curls without weighing them down.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a curly cut cost in Australia?
A dedicated curly cut typically runs $120-$220, more than a standard cut because the technique takes 60-90 minutes. Many curly specialists include a tutorial on washing, plopping and product application.
What's the difference between a Rezo cut and a DevaCut?
DevaCut cuts each curl individually with the hair styled and dry. Rezo cut focuses on volume and weight balance, often combining wet and dry techniques. Most curly specialists are trained in both and choose based on your curl pattern.
Can curly specialists also colour curly hair?
Yes — curly colour specialists use balayage and gloss techniques designed for curls, applying colour to the curl pattern rather than mid-shaft saturation. Always discuss colour history because curls are more porous than straight hair.
How often should I get a curly cut?
Curly clients usually return every 3-6 months. Curls grow in different patterns, so it doesn't follow the typical 6-week cycle. Listen to your hair — when the shape feels off or weight is uneven, book in.
