Cutting curtain bangs with layers can be a bit more challenging, but it's definitely possible. Here are some steps you can follow:
-
Start with clean, dry hair: Wash and dry your hair as you normally would, and style it as you normally wear it.
-
Section off your hair: Use a comb to create a triangle-shaped section at the front of your head, with the point of the triangle at the center of your forehead. This will be the section of hair that you will cut into your curtain bangs.
-
Determine the length of your bangs: Use your fingers to measure the length of the bangs you want. Pull the hair down so that it covers your eyebrows, and then measure from the tips of your fingers to the bottom of the hair. This will give you an idea of how much hair you need to cut.
-
Cut the hair: Using sharp hair cutting scissors, start cutting the hair at the center of your forehead, following the length that you measured in step 3. Cut the hair in a straight line, then use the scissors to create a slight curve at the ends of the hair. If your hair has layers, it's important to cut each layer individually, working from the longest to the shortest layer.
-
Blend the layers: Use your scissors to blend the layers into the curtain bangs, taking small sections at a time and trimming them so that they blend seamlessly with the bangs.
-
Style your bangs: Use a round brush and blow dryer to style your bangs, creating a slight curve and a parted look. You can also use a straightener to create a more sleek look.
Keep in mind that cutting curtain bangs with layers can be more difficult, and it's a good idea to consult with a professional hairstylist if you're unsure about cutting your own bangs. They can provide you with personalized advice and ensure that your new look is flattering and well-suited to your face shape.
