AI example: Modern Wolf Cut. Each example uses its matching model. Other selections are saved as ideas for your consultation.
Pin-straight with zero wave, fine diameter
Completely straight hair that reflects high shine but struggles to hold heat curls without strong texturizing prep.
Straight with subtle body and thicker cuticle
The most common straight hair type; holds heat styling well and has natural fullness.
Thick, coarse straight strands with slight bend
Coarse straight hair with strong individual strands that requires smoothing heat protectants and sharp shear cuts.
Loose tousled beach wave starting from mid-lengths
Gentle S-shape bends that create natural effortless beach texture with minimal effort.
Defined S-waves starting closer to roots with slight frizz
Consistent S-waves throughout the head that respond beautifully to curl creams and diffuse drying.
Deep distinct S-waves transitioning into loose ringlets
Dense wave pattern that is almost curly, prone to frizz in humidity but provides massive volume.
Big, loose sidewalk-chalk size loopy spirals
Defined springy curls with distinct circular shape that drop slightly under heavy length.
Sharpie-marker size springy corkscrew ringlets
Dense, spring-loaded curls with plenty of body and attitude; thrives on deep hydration.
Pencil-circumference dense, tight ringlets
Tight corkscrews that create incredible natural structure and dramatic silhouettes.
Dense S-pattern miniature coils, crochet needle size
Clearly defined miniature coils that retain moisture better than other Type 4 patterns.
Sharp Z-pattern angles without defined curl cylinder
Coils that bend at sharp angles like a Z; highly versatile for sculptured updos, braids, and afros.
Micro-tight zigzag coils with highest shrinkage (~85%)
The most delicate and intricate hair texture; shrinks dramatically when dry and can be molded into stunning artistic shapes.
