Hair Length
• The length of the hair can affect your
choice of style and styling technique.
• The longer the hair the more work it will
need to keep it looking nice.
• It will also take longer to dry so extra
time may be needed.
• Very short hair will limit your choice of
style. There may not be enough hair to do
what the client would like.
• Long hair is heavier so the weight may
cause the curl to drop sooner than it would
with short hair.

inch a month. Some peoples hair grows
more each month than the average and some
grows less a month. Some people can grow
their hair very long while others cannot.

much it grows a month and its life cycle.
