DevaCut: A Specialized Technique for Cutting Curly Hair

The DevaCut, created by Lorraine Massey, co-founder of DevaCurl, is a unique hair cutting method designed specifically for curly hair. Follow these general steps for a DevaCut experience:

• Dry Cut: Cutting your hair while it's dry and in its natural state allows the stylist to see the curl pattern and shape. They will also check for any split ends or damage.
• Cleansing: Using a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, the stylist will cleanse your hair without stripping it of natural oils.
• Detangling: Carefully detangling your hair with a wide-tooth comb or fingers, the stylist avoids disturbing the curl pattern.
• Styling: Applying styling products to your wet hair, the stylist enhances your curls and defines the natural shape. They may also use a diffuser to dry your hair gently.
• Finishing: Trimming any additional curls needing shaping, the stylist ensures an even and balanced overall look.

The DevaCut technique is designed to work with the natural shape and texture of your hair, enhancing your curls and creating a personalized cut that suits your individual hair type.

The Importance of Moisture for Curly Hair

Moisture is essential for maintaining healthy curly hair. Here are the main reasons why proper hydration is crucial for curly hair:

• Preventing frizz: Frizz is often caused by lack of moisture, which leads to raised cuticles on the hair shaft. Hydrated curls are less prone to frizz.
• Maintaining definition: Moisture helps define and enhance natural curls, giving them bounce and volume. Dry curls may appear limp and lifeless.
• Reducing breakage: Curly hair is prone to breakage, especially when it's dry and brittle. Moisture keeps the hair soft and flexible, reducing the risk of breakage.
• Promoting growth: Well-moisturized curls are more likely to grow and flourish. Moisture nourishes the hair and promotes healthy growth.
• Maintaining overall hair health: Moisture is essential for healthy hair, especially for curly hair. Well-moisturized curly hair is less likely to become damaged or develop split ends.
