Happily, Dublin says a triangular cut like this works on all curl types, from 3A to 4C. “Looser curls create dynamic, airy movement, while tighter coils offer incredible volume, definition, and sculptural presence. Longer 4C hair can be styled in twist-outs or braid-outs to showcase structured yet natural waves, just like Zendaya’s look.” Here’s what to ask for: “A blunt, jaw-length bob cut on dry hair,” says Dublin, as it’s easy to go overboard when cutting wet lengths. “For tighter coils, request subtle invisible layers,” suggests Dublin, “so the shape stays angular and modern without rounding out too much.” Take inspiration from this cut by Sal Salcedo.
