Curtain bangs lend an air of simplicity and elegance to your look.
Curtain bangs resemble draped curtains that are as if framing the window. Styling curtain bangs are all about customisation to enhance your unique facial features and hair texture. These bangs create a soft look and emphasise your facial features. Flattering on every face cut, curtain bangs are versatile and voguish. You can play with them. Experiment with them. These soft, face-framing bangs can complement any look when styled the right way.
Here’s how they can be styled for different face shapes and hair types:
Most styles work on an oval face, so curtain bangs can be either short or long. Keep them soft and wispy for a natural look. You can try long-ish bangs to highlight your cheekbones.
Let them gently fall to the sides with a slight centre part. For a casual vibe, use a round brush to flip them outward while blow-drying to create an effortless flow.
Go for longer curtain bangs that reach below the cheekbones. This helps elongate your face and add balance.
Keep your bangs sleek with a slight wave starting from mid-length down to create an illusion of length. Blow-dry the bangs straight and curve them outward at the tips for a slimming effect.
Aim for soft, layered curtain bangs that soften the strong jawline. The key is to keep them wispy to counterbalance sharp facial angles.
Go for a relaxed, tousled look. Style with a blow dryer and add some loose waves to the rest of your hair to bring softness around the face.
Longer, side-swept curtain bangs are great for balancing a broader forehead with a narrower chin.
Style them to sweep outward from the centre, keeping the ends flowing softly past the jawline. Use a flat iron to create a gentle curve for a romantic, face-softening finish.
For straight hair, curtain bangs naturally fall into place. To avoid them looking too flat, blow-dry them with a round brush to add volume. You can also use a bit of texturizing spray to give them more body.
Embrace the natural texture! Allow the waves to enhance the movement in your bangs. Use a curl cream or a sea salt spray to define the waves and create a beachy, undone look.
Curly curtain bangs add tons of personality and drama. Opt for slightly longer bangs so they don’t shrink too much when dry. Use a diffuser to dry them, and a curl cream to keep them soft and defined without frizz.
With thicker hair, curtain bangs can look heavy. Thinning the bangs slightly can help them fall more naturally. Use a volumizing mousse while blow-drying to prevent them from feeling bulky.
With fine hair, bangs might look a bit limp, which can affect the overall look you are trying to nail. To add volume, blow-dry them with a round brush and apply a root-lifting spray to keep them looking full and bouncy.
By styling curtain bangs according to your facial shape and hair texture, you can create a customized look that feels effortlessly chic!
Irrespective of your hair texture and style, curtain bangs require some effort. Firstly, be sure to trim the bangs and keep ‘em in shape—preferably every three to four weeks. This little maintenance will ensure the best impact and look for your bangs. For hygiene and a refreshing look, dry shampoo works wonders. You may use it even on a daily basis.
