9. Full Tapered Style

While many tapered haircuts require shearing the sides of the head, this is not always the case. A tapered cut can provide that closely trimmed distinctive look while keeping curls reasonably voluminous. Simply inform your hairdresser you want to take it gently on the sides.

10. Natural Cut with Bangs

Want to soften your face while still having some styling options with short hair? Try a tapered haircut with long bangs and a crown section. Allow curly front parts to graze the forehead for a softer, more feminine look with short hair.

11. Natural Hair Statement Style

Take a walk on the wild side with some tiger orange locks and a tapered twa. This “teeny weeny afro” allows hair to flow freely while avoiding the damage caused by regular styling; simply wake up, wash, and go!

12. Thick and Straight Tapered Hair

Perhaps your hair isn’t naturally curly, and you love the look of relaxed tresses. You can continue to experiment with tapered natural hairstyles. Try a Mohawk with chopped sides and tapering length towards the nape of the neck. Brush the top layer of hair straight back and apply an all-day holding spray.

13. Ombre Taper

We frequently believe that short hair limits our hair styling options. To add some interest to your curly black hair, try an ombre hair color. Purple, blue, green, and red are some color combinations that work nicely.

18. Natural Descending Taper Style

A tapered natural haircut can be as short as long as you like. For this look, pair longer fluffy curls on top with shorter twisted coils on the sides and back. What is the end result? A lovely girlie style that reduces in length and texture.

Enhance your tapered look with a side fade that is perfectly lined up at the temples. This is the epitome of wash-and-go style, with a little afro on top and cut, barely-there sides.
