Hair
A curly hair cut should work with the texture you wear every day. At Strand & Lock in Digbeth, Birmingham, we discuss your curls, coils or waves, the shape you want and your home routine before planning your appointment.
Dry cutting allows a stylist to assess where curls fall in their natural state. Shrinkage, density and different curl patterns can affect the outline and balance of a cut, so your consultation is as important as the cutting technique.
Tell us whether you usually wear your hair natural, stretched or straightened. Your stylist can discuss a shape suited to that routine rather than assuming every client wants the same finish.
Bring examples of shapes you like and explain what you find difficult: flat roots, uneven layers, unruly curls, tangling or a wash-day routine that takes too long. Mention previous colour, heat styling and chemical treatments.
Ask the salon about arrival instructions before your first visit. Preparation and appointment length depend on the service selected; the booking page lists available services and prices.
Our hair services include curly cutting, colour and treatments. If you want a colour change as well as a cut, discuss both when booking so the appropriate appointments can be arranged.
A consultation can help you weigh up length, shape and condition. Treatments can improve how hair feels and is managed, but cannot guarantee that damaged hair will return to its original condition.
Find Strand & Lock at Unit 12 & 13 Gibb Street, Deritend, Birmingham B9 4DJ. All hair types are welcome. Choose your appointment through our existing online booking page or call 07538 796039 if you need help selecting a service.
