The Side Swept cut is a low-maintenance option that works on both curly and straight hair. A deep side part is key to making the Side Sweep work. You can let it loose and natural or ask for some tapering for a longer swept top and a sleeker hairline cut. This style works particularly well if you have curly hair since it’s a cut that looks better with texture. If you have naturally straight hair, ask your barber for layers to create some additional volume.
