What You’ll Need
- Hair straightener
- Heat protectant spray
- Comb
- Sectioning clips (optional)
- Hairspray (optional)
Step 1: Prep Your Hair
Before you start styling, make sure your hair is clean and dry. Apply a heat protectant spray to shield your hair from any potential damage caused by the hot straightener.
Step 2: Section Your Hair
Using a comb, create a center part in your hair. If you prefer a deeper part, adjust accordingly. Then, separate the front section of your hair that will become your curtain bangs. Secure the rest of your hair with sectioning clips to keep it out of the way.
Step 3: Start Straightening
Take a small section of your curtain bangs and place the hair straightener near the roots. Gently close the straightener and slide it down towards the ends of your hair. For a more natural look, twist your wrist slightly inward as you reach the mid-shaft, creating a soft bend. Repeat this process for all sections of your curtain bangs.
Step 4: Add Some Movement
To create a tousled, effortless look, grab random sections of your curtain bangs and twist them around the hair straightener. Hold for a few seconds and release. This technique will add subtle waves and texture to your bangs.
Step 5: Perfect the Style
Now that you have straightened and added some movement to your curtain bangs, it’s time to perfect the style. Take your comb and gently comb through the bangs to separate any strands that may have stuck together during the straightening process. If desired, spritz a small amount of hairspray to hold the style in place.
Step 6: Enjoy Your Curtain Bangs
Once you’re satisfied with the look of your curtain bangs, unveil them by removing the sectioning clips. Style the rest of your hair as usual, and you’re ready to show off your trendy new haircut!
Remember, practice makes perfect, so don’t worry if it takes a few tries to get your curtain bangs just right. Experiment with different techniques and find the one that suits you best. With a bit of patience and creativity, you’ll be rocking fabulous curtain bangs in no time!
