HAIR LENGTH GUIDE: Understanding Curl Shrinkage

When choosing the perfect length for your curly bundles, it's important to consider curl shrinkage. The tighter the curl pattern, the shorter the hair will appear when worn in its natural state.  

Length & Curl Pattern Breakdown 

📏 Straight Hair – True to length, lays flat and fully extended.  

📏 Wavy Hair (Water Wave) – Appears slightly shorter than straight hair due to the natural wave pattern.  

📏 Looser Curls (Curly Blossom, Burmese Bloom) – Can appear *2-4 inches shorter than its true length because the curls create volume and bounce.  

📏 Tighter Curls & Waves (Deep Wave) – May appear 4-6 inches shorter as the defined curl pattern causes more shrinkage.  

Choosing the Right Length 

If you want your curly hair to look true to length, consider going 2-4 inches longer than your desired final look.  
- If you prefer versatility (wearing it both curly and straight), opt for longer lengths to maintain fullness when straightened.  
- For maximum volume and bounce, embrace the natural curl pattern and shape!
