As for the bob with curtain bangs, it is best to shape it your way. So whether you have straight or wavy hair, you can dare one of the variations of the bob cut with “curtain bang” without hesitation. Hairdressers say: “the cut that will be on all fronts this summer must be made according to the style of the person who will wear it”. In other words, there are no more limits.

To adopt the “curtain bang” trend without being mistaken, we wear it smooth, thick or, in some cases, tapered. Lovers of the 70s look can opt for rounded bangs to achieve using a hairdryer and a brush. The curtain trend has had its effect on a long square. However, it’s not just for short hair. Long and mid-length manes can also make it their own. Anyway, it goes with all cuts and hairstyles: waves, straight lengths, bohemian bun , half-tail, braids, etc. It also goes very well with the combed-disheveled effect. So don’t hesitate to combine your long bob with a sophisticated tie!
How to maintain and style the bob cut with curtain bangs?
With the bangs in the curtain and the short hair transformed into a bob, it’s time to style your hair! For this purpose, it is important to pay attention to the hair products you are going to use. Ditto for heating devices. For a naturally wavy square, swap the hair dryer for a diffuser that does not attack the curls. On the other hand, prefer the flat end of the hair dryer for a perfectly smooth look. Use a serum to prevent frizz. As for the bangs, place it wet on your forehead and work it with the round brush and blow dryer from above. Respect the direction of the hair and direct the hair fiber downwards. Dry it several times so that the hair is softer and more pliable. Finish by lightly bulging your bangs.

On the maintenance side, the curtain fringe is less restrictive than the straight fringe. Its regrowth will therefore no longer be a chore. Thanks to its degraded shape, it allows you to space out the appointments in the hairdressing salon. Once pushed back, the “curtain bang” does not obstruct the eye and keeps its bohemian look. So, you don’t need to cover it up with a bunch of hair clips if you want to let it grow.
