Curly hair is finally getting the recognition it deserves. With more brands formulating game-changing products to help curly girls embrace rather than change their hair pattern, and stylists like Charlotte Mensah and Jennie Roberts divulging their curly hair expertise, curly hair trends are bigger than ever.

When it comes to haircuts, shoulder-length curly hair takes the top spot, says L'Oréal, with a 350% increase in Google searches since salons reopened. But much shorter, cropped styles are making waves on Instagram and Pinterest, too, as are classic bobs and up-dos with a nostalgic twist.

From the curly shag to the curly pixie, click through to discover the coolest curly hair trends to have on your radar for 2020, according to some of London's top hair experts.
