What Are French Curl Braids?

French curl braids are made with French curl braiding hair, a soft, silky hair with a natural wave. We braid from the root down and leave the ends loose in bouncy curls. You get the clean, neat look of braids at the top and soft movement at the bottom.

Why Clients Love French Curls

Movement. The curly ends swing and bounce in a way straight braids don’t.
Soft feel. French curl hair is silky and lightweight.
Versatile. Wear them down, in a half-up style, or in a high ponytail with curls cascading down.
Great for any occasion. They dress up for events and still look relaxed every day.

Sizes and Lengths

We install French curls in small, medium, and large sizes, from shoulder length to mid-back and longer. Ask about knotless French curls for a flatter, lighter root.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Plan for about 4 to 7 hours depending on size and length. Come with your hair washed, dried, and detangled unless you’ve booked a wash. We’ll confirm your size, length, and curl style before we start and finish with the curls separated and set.

How to Care for Your French Curls

Sleep in a satin bonnet to keep the curls from frizzing.
Separate curls with your fingers, never a brush.
Refresh with a light mousse instead of heavy oils.
Keep your scalp moisturized with a light spray.

How do I keep my French curls from tangling?

They're similar but not the same. Boho braids add loose curls throughout the braids, while French curl braids use a silky curled hair with the curls mainly at the ends.
