What can you achieve with a curly hair long style? Or should we be asking, what can't you achieve with it?
Well it depends on what you want to achieve, of course. But it's not that simple, either.
There's your hair type to consider.
Are you naturally curly? If you are, some decisions have already been made.
Do you have corkscrews? You might have a high volume, east-west feel to all your long curly hair styles. But if you've avoided layers and kept your curls growing evenly, maybe your corkscrews are starting to answer the call of gravity.
There's not much that rivals the appeal of a long, wide, storm-tossed ocean of curls framing your face, perfectly showing off your features in profile while adding a hint of drama and danger.
Are you a Botticelli girl? Maybe you have a plunging waterfall of curls and ringlets.
Your curly hair long style, whether you leave it mostly loose or raise it in an updo, can have braids or plaits dangling among the natural spirals, and other braids pinned up to add contrast and interest to your normal curly texture.
Simple, natural curls and spirals left hanging at the front, with the main body of your hair gathered loosely behind, always make for a sexy curly hair long style. It's the best of both worlds - a hint of glamour and a hint of bedroom tousles.
Whether your curly hair long style is based on waves, corkscrews or botticelli ringlets, highlighting can be effective. If you selectively highlight different strands you create a dramatic light and shadow effect that accentuates the curls and creates a feeling of even more body.
It has to be done carefully, but it looks incredibly natural, like sun-bleaching. And that leads you into the whole wet, wavy, beach girl look.
Long wavy hair? What can't you do with that?
And don't forget hats. Combine your headgear with a curly hair long style for an even wider range of effects. Whatever your curl type, put on a beanie, cap or hat so that your curls or waves burst out below the rim and you have an instant attention-getter.
Just add the clothes, accessories and expression to match. Cute factor, glamour factor, whatever-you-want factor guaranteed.
And then there's the drama and the glamour of curls swept sideways by the wind, like Venus rising from the waves in Botticelli's picture. He knew what he was doing when he painted that image.
Botticelli wanted to capture the birth of natural beauty. He gave Venus a curly hair long style and had the wind toss her curls out to the side. That was no accidental effect. It's a look that photographers still strive to capture today.
It's no accident, either, that Botticelli's name has come to be associated with the type of curls that make so many women look so effortlessly glamorous, so feminine and desirable.
But corkscrew curls are also right up there in the world of natural beauty.
One of the most surprising effects is a curly hair long style that teases corkscrew curls up into a shock of hair, a halo of light or a cloud of darkness that's also ultra-feminine.
What's surprising about this curly hair long style is that you don't expect such an aura of lightness from tightly curled hair - not until you remember how fine the texture of those corkscrews really is.
But even some women who have long curls don't realize the delicate nature of their curly hair.
