30 Rezo Cut Hairstyles You’ll Love in 2024

If you have curly hair, you know it’s hard to maintain a consistently beautiful hairstyle. In this article, you’ll learn all about the Rezo cut, a hairstyle that will almost definitely make you appreciate and embrace your curly hair!

What Is a Rezo Cut?

The Rezo cut is a haircut style/technique invented by Nubia Suarez, who felt like people didn’t appreciate curly hairstyles. She aimed to fix that by creating a new haircut that made even complex curly hairstyles look effortless. 

A Rezo cut leaves you with an even cut around your entire head, with the specific goal of maintaining both length and volume of hair. Other styles for curly hair are too heavy, short, or have broken curls.

Yet, the Rezo cut manages to give those who have curly hair the best of everything. The benefits of a Rezo cut include:

  • Even curls throughout your hair
  • Straightened hair will still look even
  • Great shape, length, and volume

While the Rezo cut is similar to the DevaCut, the DevaCut style is more about framing the face, and the Rezo cut is all about evenness.

By having an even length around your head, a Rezo cut looks great in multiple styles, even when you straighten your hair. The technique for a Rezo cut, which involves cutting the hair curl by curl while it’s dry, is complicated and requires proper training.

If you’ve been struggling to find a better way to cut your curly hair, it is worth the effort to find a specialist who can give you this unique haircut.

5 Things to Consider Before Getting a Rezo Cut 

As these examples show, there is a lot more variety to the Rezo cut than you might think. The basic idea behind the style is always even length, but some details can vary greatly. 

So let’s explore some of these specific things you should consider before deciding for sure on the Rezo cut.

  1. The first consideration is where to get this haircut. There is an entire niche of curly hair specialists, and since this haircut is highly technical, you’ll want to find one of these specialists specifically trained to do this haircut. 
  2. Secondly, consider choosing something similar If your hairdresser isn’t confident doing a Rezo cut. A good option is something that’s technically easier, like the DevaCut.
  3. Rocking a stylish curly hairstyle isn’t just about the haircut—great-looking curly hair also needs maintenance. Feel free to ask your stylist, but it is also worth reviewing this list of curly hair maintenance tips
  4. Wash your hair with your hairstyle in mind. Keep hair moisturized to avoid frizz, wash with conditioner only, and don’t wash on humid days.  
  5. The Rezo cut is all about showing off your hair. While other haircuts frame and highlight the face, this haircut is all about being proud of your curls and showing them off. 

So if you choose to go with this haircut, be confident and have fun with it!
