Short Curly Hairstyle

Work mousse into towel dry hair, then blow dry in sections. Part the hair. Use the GHD to curl the hair so that the curls are uniform and the fringe sits just right. (Fringes can be a nightmare. You can spend forever trying to get them to do what you want, and even when you do they can suddenly collapse. Sometimes it's pure luck when it works out - you use a particular wrist movement with the curler or flat iron and wham! It's perfect! If that happens and your fringe suddenly looks right, don't push your luck - spray it and lock it in!) For the finishing touch, separate the curls gently with your fingers and work sculpting creme into the individual curls. Make this a very sparing use of sculpting cream or wax - apply just enough to make a difference (sometimes less is more). Do not comb the hair after applying the sculpting creme, and then use hairspray only on the straighter parts on top. Note: The shape of this hairstyle is created by the cut. It's a layered bob hairstyle, and to achieve this look you need a similar layered haircut. But with that cut you have a lot of options. If Charlize straightened her hair, for instance, instead of curling it with a flat iron, her layers would present as a single smooth surface. In that case the result would be much more like Kristin Cavallari's mid length messy bob. The two women have completely different haircuts - Charlize Theron's is all about the layers while Kristen's hair isn't layered at all - but with straight hair Charlize could easily mimic Kristen's beach babe look.
