Before your upcoming salon appointment, draw inspiration from these images of the finest curly hairstyles for long hair!
#1: Radiant Waterfall Curls for Black and Natural Hair
This softly layered waterfall haircut was created by sculpting the curls to flow away from the face with a delicate, harmonious shape. This form translates beautifully to wavy hair, medium curls, and the relaxed end of the tightly curled spectrum. Subtle shaping that enhances your texture and reduces bulk is flattering on longer hairstyles.
#2: Flawless Look with a Center Part
Suppose you have a long symmetrical face, loose long curls with a center part would be perfect for a formal event, like a wedding. The volume and the length effortlessly create a curly, bouncy hairstyle and balance out your face shape, leaving you looking truly captivating.
#3: Layered Hairstyle for Naturally Long and Kinky Curls
This long curly style is referred to as “The High Priestess” or “The Lioness.” Essentially, it’s a long curly layered hairstyle on extremely thick hair. It commands attention.
Use Innersense Organic Beauty products to elevate this layered curly hairstyle for women. Their line includes the Hydrating Cream Hairbath, Hydrating Cream Conditioner, Inner Peace Whipped Cream Texturizer, and I Create Hold Gel. An oval face would showcase this curl pattern best because it emphasizes length and fullness. With any other face shape, hair styles for curly hair like this might look too extreme.
#4: Extended-Length Hairstyle Featuring Vibrant Blonde Curls
An extended-length hairstyle with vibrant curls is ideal for women looking to breathe new life into their curls without sacrificing much length. By maintaining the length while incorporating shorter layers, the curls remain light and lively. Once styled, the curls spring back and preserve the overall length.
#5: Sleek Side Part
A long hair style with a sleek side part creates a lovely silhouette, highlighting your natural texture. The side parting contributes height to the top, and the volume provided by your natural curls elevates your appearance. Request a dry cut or dusting to eliminate split ends while maintaining hair length. To achieve stunning ringlets, remember to avoid layering. I suggest air drying with a moisture-rich product to keep frizz at bay.
#6: Beautifully Natural Textured Waves on Long Locks
These naturally textured waves on long locks create a stylish, eye-catching look! The best thing about this beach style for curly hair is that it enhances a curly texture. If you’re considering these tresses, feel free of too much product to keep your hair curly and defined! When washing your hair, rake through the curls while there’s conditioner in them. That’s how you’ll get any tangles out.
#7: Beautiful Long Red Curly Hairstyle Featuring Voluminous Curls
A beautiful long red curly hairstyle featuring voluminous curls is captivating as it showcases multi-tonal red-orange tones. For effortless radiance, try Evo Love Perpetua when curls are completely dry.
#8: Curly Updo with Fishtail Braid for Longer Locks
Experience this fishtail braid paired with a boho updo on gorgeous blonde curly hair featuring sun-kissed lowlights. The braids in an updo for curly hair offer a more stylish and feminine appearance. No curly blonde hairstyle is complete without the addition of hair gems or floral embellishments.
#9: Luxuriant Thick Long Curly Tresses
My top recommendation for women with luxuriant thick long hair is to use a wide toothcomb in the shower. You can use it after you apply conditioner to your hair. Combing your hair in the shower with a wide toothcomb will help to distribute the conditioner. And it helps to get any tangles out. Remember, when you get out of the shower, it’s best not to comb the hair. Use your fingers to separate the curls and a microfiber towel or t-shirt to scrunch your hair.
#10: Long Hair with Bangs for Naturally Curly Styles
Enhance your features with bangs and your naturally curly hair. Opt for face-framing layers and bangs to add dimension to your hairstyle. Incorporating curls and bangs can help to mask your forehead and create harmony for an elongated face. Be sure to apply a curl gel and use a diffuser while styling to achieve body and volume in your curls.
#11: Ombre on Long Curls
An ombre technique for long curly hair will bring depth and highlight ringlet curls beautifully. Dyeing your hair in an ombre pattern lessens the maintenance, as your roots remain dark while the ends are light, enabling more time between visits to the salon. Style your hair with an elegant side part to emphasize the face-framing highlights and boost volume at the roots. Employ WOW Dream Coat for Curly Hair to minimize frizz and enhance the shine of your gorgeous long curls.
#12: Effortless Face-Framing Long Curls
Consult with your stylist for a “curly cut” on styled, dry hair to achieve effortless face-framing long curls. The goal is to have your curls in their natural position so they lay perfectly and, when cut, stay flattering in length. A choppy cut is incredibly trendy, but it looks best when executed properly!
#13: Simple Curly Haircut for Long Hair
This long curly hairstyle is perfect for everyday looks. All of the long hair with layers provides a relaxed shape. Cutting shorter pieces enables the medium curly hair texture to dry quicker and requires less product. Incorporating some layers will refresh your long, naturally curly hair if you’re looking to maintain your curly tresses while updating your look. If you want to try this style but lack natural curls, a perm can assist you.
#14: Luxuriously Long Naturally Curly Hair
Your styling possibilities are limitless with a luxuriously long, naturally curly hairdo. Your best approach is to maintain simplicity in your styles. Your curls are stunning and do not require anything intricate to look incredible. You’ll need a leave-in conditioner and products to help defrizz for smoother styling and upkeep.
#15: Beautiful Style with a Center Part
A center part is perfect for a beautiful yet easy-to-maintain style. Longer fringe with a center part opens up the face and highlights the cheekbones for a fresh appearance. To enhance your curls, apply a hydrating curl cream like Oribe Butter Curl Enhancing Creme to damp hair and dry it upside down using a diffuser on low heat.
#16: Soft Light Brown Curls with a Side Part
Explore a stylish option with soft light brown curls parted to the side. The light brown shade serves as an ideal balance that complements a variety of skin tones. Based on my experience, it’s best to cut long curled hair while dry to avoid removing too much length when damp. A side part will add significant volume to your hair around your face, exactly where you want it.
#17: Extremely Long Lush Curly Locks without Bangs
You’ll adore the hair goddess vibe of extremely long, lush curly locks without bangs. If you desire your curls to be this flawless, ensure you receive regular trims and intensive conditioning treatments. I suggest medium-length layered hairstyles to provide your hair with added volume. Try L’Oreal’s Curl Expression product range to enhance your curls and minimize frizz. You can let your hair air dry or use a diffuser on low heat for the best outcome.
#18: Luscious Curly Locks with a Side Part
A side part is ideal for anyone who prefers a simple, low-maintenance look. There is some effort involved in maintaining the curls’ health. However, the styling routine is as straightforward as curl cream paired with a diffuser or even letting it air dry with an air-dry cream. Curly hair usually has enhanced hold and volume, making it a great choice for women who enjoy a dramatic or striking appearance.
#19: Luxurious Long Black Curls
Luxurious long, curly black hair is breathtaking. Styles for curly hair can be adapted in numerous ways and complement various face shapes, but don’t overlook the upkeep necessary. To maintain healthy curls, clarify frequently, use pure products, deeply condition, and protect your curls!
#20 Stylish Shag Cut with Curly Bangs
The ideal haircut for long curly hair is the the curly shag with bangs. The tousled curls appear enchanting and so vibrant! However, if you prefer a shorter length with plenty of versatility, a curly long bob is a great option as well. Regular visits to the salon for trims are essential to maintain this brown curly hairstyle in perfect condition.

#21: Luxurious Full Curls with a Curly Fringe
Consider trying out luxurious full curls with a curly fringe. If possible, request your stylist to cut your layers with a disconnection between the top and bottom. This technique will help you preserve the length’s integrity. The shorter layer on the top will contribute to achieving a fuller crown shape. When styling, embrace your curls and refrain from excessive handling while diffusing. For styling, use a curl product such as L’Oréal Curl Expression.
#22: Luxurious and Vibrant Long Curls
Luxurious and vibrant long curls are stunning, especially with the right cut. I don’t recommend layering on thinner textured curls. It will create a round shape and stringy ends. If you want some hang to your shape, less layering is the way to go. The best way to dry long, curly hair with bangs is to air dry or diffuse it with minimal heat. And, of course, use products like L’Oréal’s Curl Expression line.
#23: Vibrant Curly Voluminous Hair
This curly hairstyle with an off-center part on vibrant curly voluminous hair has a face-framing look. This cut on thick curly hair is great because of the layers. Layers are excellent for creating hairstyles for naturally curly hair. The reason is that the layers create volume and give your hair body. For styling curls, use moisturizing products.
Try a hydrating leave-in conditioner, then use a curl cream to define the curls. For hold, use a gel. Try a strong hold gel because it holds definition and retains curls for a good three days until your next wash day. This cut is good for women with high-density hair 3a 3b curls. It’s important to use products that define your curls and help keep them hydrated. To maintain or reach this length, it’s essential to do trims/hair treatments to keep your long curls healthy.
#24: Elegant 3b Curly Hair Styled with a Side Part
Exude confidence and grace with elegant long 3B curly hair styled with a side part. A side part enhances the appearance of larger, more voluminous locks. Incorporating layers can breathe life and body into your curls, but keep in mind that when it comes to cutting curls, less is more. Cutting your hair while it’s wet may obscure how much length you’re removing. On the other hand, cutting your hair dry allows you to see precisely how much length you are trimming.
#25: Stunning Ringlets Long Hairstyle with Ash Brown Accents
Impress everyone, at any gathering, by incorporating ash brown accents on beautifully curled long hair that will create breathtaking depth in your tresses. This curly hairstyle with highlights appears fabulous when enhanced with a shine spray to amplify vibrancy.

Have these bold disconnected long curls to show off such a fierce statement. A girl with curly hair has an elegant yet bolder way of styling natural curls. For women considering a similar curly style for their loose curls, know that shaved undercuts can have an awkward grow-out process. Consider that factor before deciding to get long curly haircuts and styles done.
#29: Long Luxurious Brunette Curls
Explore the boho aesthetic of stunning long brunette curls. The best approach to achieving beautiful ringlets is to avoid excessive layers, particularly if your hair is finer. You’ll want to preserve the fullness and weight at the ends. A couple of face-framing strands would be perfect, with minimal layering throughout. If your tresses aren’t naturally curly, think about getting a perm.

These layered, soft long curls with side-swept bangs feature a face-framing front. It’s also a lovely optional hairstyle for fine curly hair. Utilize heat protection and a texturizing spray along with a light, flexible hairspray when styling this long-layered curly haircut.
#31: Radiant Copper Long Ringlets
Radiant copper long ringlets are the ideal sun-kissed curls. Ask your stylist for a complete balayage to achieve this golden copper hue. Very subtly long layers with a gentle face frame keep these curls appearing long.

The allure of curly bronde hair is capturing attention as a top style choice. For vibrant curls, consider booking a session with a stylist who focuses on curly textures.

Using a blow-dryer with a diffuser at a low heat setting is effective for achieving your desired look.

Embrace these charming long ringlet curls and spark hair envy among others. This is a layered cut for thick curly hair. Fun, charismatic, and cute—this hairstyle is bursting with spirit! Use only a diffuser to dry the mane, ensuring its texture appears effortlessly beautiful!
Typically, face frames suit all women. The cheekbones serve as a great foundation since they help to elongate your face and introduce some playful movement to your hair. The layers are perfect for women who appreciate added volume. The shortest layer rests around the chin/cheekbones, enhancing the crown’s fullness. I particularly favor this layered cut for curly hair because the perimeter (ends) remains vibrant and full despite the layering.
#34: Elegantly Styled Long Curly Hair
You’ll want to try an elegantly styled, long curly hair. Giving your hair a great cut helps keep it healthy and looking fantastic. With this hairstyle you’ll want to avoid over-layering if you want ringlets with a bit of weight. However, medium layers are the perfect length for creating volume and shape. Try air drying with a curl product to achieve defined curls, and steer clear of combing once your hair is dry.
#35: Stunning Voluminous Curls with Luminous Balayage
Revamp your lifeless, frizzy hair into stunning voluminous curls with luminous balayage. I strongly suggest utilizing a leave-in conditioner since curly hair tends to be drier and requires extra moisture. Try to avoid touching your hair while it dries to preserve your curl pattern and minimize frizz. Employ a diffuser to achieve beautiful, bouncy curls for enhanced volume and movement.
#36: Beautiful Long Curls
This long hairstyle is ideal if your hair is naturally curly. Start by prepping with a curl-defining cream or mousse to prevent the curls from falling flat.

I recommend L’Oréal Paris Advanced Hairstyle Air Dry It Ruffled Body Mousse!
#38: Trendy Long Shaggy Wolf Cut
To achieve a full, voluminous look, fine, curly hair requires plenty of layers. Consult your stylist for a long, shaggy wolf cut that complements your face shape and curl texture.

If you’re pursuing a long curly hairstyle, avoid stretching the curls while you cut. Layer vertically and focus on using just the very top of the crown for layering. Avoid silicones, dimethicones, parabens, butters, and oils.
#49 Timeless Medium-to-Long Curly Cut with V Shape
A medium-to-long curly cut in a V shape enhances the silhouette around the front of your hairstyle. Elevating your curl, the deeper the “V,” the more definition you will bring closer to the face.

This curly hairstyle is ideal for women who prefer a straightforward hair routine and wish for their natural texture to shine effortlessly. A curly girl should embrace her hair rather than letting her hair define her. Now, set aside the idea of short hair and start growing your curls long to explore a new trend.
