What’s your experience with wavy, curly and coily hair? Do you love it? Are you comfortable to work with it? Curls are unique with no two being alike. Working with curls is rewarding, but can also present as an opportunity for learning as they can be a challenge for a stylist unfamiliar with curly hair types. As a hair stylist, it’s your job to clearly identify and speak to your client’s hair type. To do this confidently you need the right vocabulary, techniques, and products. Luckily, L’Oréal Professionnel’s new Curl Expression line and Curl Keys videos can quickly bring you up to speed.

Learn how to speak the language of curls, and how to use the right wording to approach clients. From curl level definition, curl radius, apparent vs real hair length, and the number of waves and twists, you’ll learn every syntax and curl scale to properly identify hair type.
