If you keep them fairly separated at the top, then they'll be more subtle.īoth: If you really want to nail a classic curtain bang look, Maine recommends doing both. If you pinch the bangs at the top, then your fringe will be more visible. After you finish your blow-dry process, drape your bangs like curtains and clip the ends. The clip method: If you don't have a roller on hand or you want to minimize the volume of your look, then using creaseless clips is for you.

Then, gently pull it out toward the back of your head and drape your bangs as you see fit. Leave the roller for a few minutes or until your bangs feel completely cool. You'll want to make sure the bangs are getting pulled up and back, not forward-this will prevent the over-curl. The roller method: Roll up your bangs on a wide Velcro roller. There are two ways to do this-either with clips or with a Velcro roller (or both).

If you have a widow's peak, then you'll want to work on reversing the natural sway of your part. You can use either brush for this approach, but a round brush will deliver more bounce and volume. "Almost as if you are trying to flip the ends upward," he adds.īy keeping the roots flat but the ends swooped, you'll achieve the classic curtain bangs style-not too round, not too flat. After separating your bangs from the rest of your hair, start with "The roots facing down toward the face but the ends sweeping upward toward the top of the head, which can be counterintuitive," celebrity hairstylist and co-founder of Trademark Beauty Joseph Maine tells mbg.
