Curtain Bangs have been gaining tremendous momentum thanks to their face-framing output and flexible style. These bangs start with shorter strands from inwards and gradually increase in length.

Bangs are placed on either side and usually have a centre partition. They are great if you have a broad forehead or want to enhance your cheekbones. Here are some styles that you can opt for depending on your hair type. 

Amazing Curtain Bangs Hairstyles

Defined Curtain Bangs

These kinds of curtain bangs seamlessly transition to the layering of the rest of the strands. They do not overtly look like bangs and are perfect if you are unsure about taking the plunge.

These bangs look more defined in the case of straight hair. To maintain the tousled effect towards the edges, you need to style your hair after every wash. Certain small fringes in the center add great detailing to the look. 

Contrast Bangs

If you think getting the bangs isn’t enough and you would like to amp it up even more, then this edgy look is for you. Once you get your curtain bangs with a center partition, you can have different colors on either side.

To get the look, you can opt for two contrasting shades, as seen in the image – blonde and ginger tones. Styling it with soft waves also adds to the whimsical look. 

Longish Bangs

If you are too conscious about your face shaping a certain way after the bangs or do not want the hurdle of getting it trimmed every now and then, this look is for you! They are grown out in a specific proportion (alongside the cheekbone) and work well for straight hair.

Bangs with a Bun

Curtain bangs can be a convenient option if you want to add texture to your regular hair-up in a bun. They work well for both work events and cocktail parties where you can look chic while being comfortable. This works for all hair colors and types.
