7. The Wavy Texture Blend
If you have naturally wavy or curly hair, trying to force your bangs into a blunt, straight style is a losing battle. Instead, embrace the texture. In this cut, the long layers are tailored to support your natural wave pattern, preventing the dreaded “triangle shape” that can happen with curly hair. The curtain bangs are cut slightly longer and with more weight, which allows them to curl into soft, face-framing ringlets. This look is incredibly vibrant, youthful, and naturally full of life, celebrating your natural hair texture while maintaining a structured, intentional shape.
How to Make
Cut the layers while the hair is in its natural, curly state. This allows you to see how the curls will spring up and frame the face. For the curtain bangs, cut them to chin length to account for the shrinkage that occurs with waves. Avoid over-layering the fringe; instead, keep it thick enough to maintain its structure. Style by using a curl-enhancing cream on damp hair and either air-drying or using a diffuser. Do not touch your hair while it is drying, as this will prevent frizz and help the bangs maintain their beautiful, bouncy shape.
