Sometimes spiral curls can look too precious, especially on women with thick hair which can be overpowering. To upgrade your hairstyle to a more cutting-edge look, opt for a beautiful hair color. A deep purple is a lovely choice for perfect brunette curls. If you worry about breakage or committing to one color, try a semi-permanent formula.

Encircling the face with a halo of corkscrews is a pretty and exuberant way to wear shoulder length tresses. Use a diffuser and a handful of mousse to expand and elevate the shape. Keep contours loose for a youthful and free-spirited feeling.
