A Curly Cut Restyle is a longer, detail-led appointment designed for a noticeable change in shape, length, and overall curl behaviour. It focuses on restoring definition, removing bulk where needed, and building a cut that supports your natural texture so it looks good day to day, not just when freshly styled.
More information
What this Curly Cut Restyle delivers
This service is built for bigger changes and extra time where curls need it. You can expect:
- A thorough consultation on your curl pattern, density, shrinkage, and styling routine
- A full reshape to update the silhouette, perimeter, and layers
- Weight removal and internal shaping to reduce triangle build-up and improve movement
- Face framing and fringe planning where it suits your curl type and lifestyle
- Definition-focused styling to check the shape and how the curls sit
- Practical guidance on refreshing, drying, and maintaining the cut at home
Who this is best for
This is the right choice if you want a clear shift, not a tidy-up. It suits you if:
- You are ready for a significant change in length or overall style
- Your curls feel stretched, uneven, or have lost their shape
- You have extra-long or high density curls and need more time for precision
- You wear coils, curls, or textured hair and want a cut that works with shrinkage
- You want a more polished, consistent result between wash days
How the appointment works (90 minutes)
You will start with a consultation to agree the goal shape, length, and how you like to wear your hair most days. The cut is then tailored to your curl pattern and density, followed by a finish that allows the shape to be checked and refined. Expect clear recommendations on how to style and refresh so the cut stays predictable in a busy week.
After your restyle: keeping the shape
Most clients benefit from regular reshaping to stop bulk building up and to keep ends healthy. You will leave with a plan for when to return, plus simple tweaks to maintain definition and volume at home. If you are growing your hair or changing your routine, the cut can be adjusted over time to keep it balanced.

Been there recently to restyle my hair. Couldn't be happier with the result, my curls are back to their bouncy selves. Mccrory is great! And they are very friendly ☺️ Very recommended! (very covid secure, wearing ppe and masks all the way through)

I was very nervous because I wanted to get a restyle for my curly hair. Now I am more than happy! They really knew how to work with my hair and made my curls more intense and lovely than they have ever been. Thank you very much!

Absolutely marvelous. First time I have been to the McCory Hair and I had a restyle of my curls. Kayla is very knowledgeable and worked magic with my curly hair. Now it looks exactly as I hoped it would look. She took her time and taught me lots of useful tips along the way. The environment was nice and friendly and I was relaxed and comfortable throughout. I highly reccomend McCory hair and Kayla to anyone looking for a curly hair cut.

This is one of the best salon experiences in a while, it was essentially witchcraft! They managed to squeeze me in before Christmas (miraculously). I naively didn’t realise there was a difference between the trim and a wash and cut, so I went in wanting a restyle, I didn’t realise it was a different and more expensive thing than the trim (naively), so I originally turned it down and said to stick to the trim, but Seamus wasn't having that and absolutely insisted I have a restyle at the original price because he didn’t want me to leave the salon with any emotion less than ecstatic. He truly did magic on my hair and I would very much recommend here for a curly cut!!!!

Kalaya did an amazing job restyling my curly hair. She helped me figure out what I wanted and absolutely achieved it. She also went above and beyond walking me through the styling process and recommending products to help achieve the same look at home. I'll definitely come again!

I got an amazing curly cut at McCrory Hair! My hair was quite long but I wanted to go short to change things up and they gave me an amazing pixie. My curls have never looked healthier and the shape of my haircut really suits my features! Update: I had another amazing haircut and even more amazing service! After a big rainstorm I came in totally drenched and they offered to dry my clothing which I greatly appreciate and I feel really went above and beyond! If I could give more than five stars I would!
