How to Cut Curtain Bangs on Round Faces?
First of all, gather all your essentials together for a smooth DIY session. Take a pair of sharp scissors for cutting your hair, a rat tail comb for ease of sectioning, a round hairbrush, some water in a spray bottle, hair rollers, and a blow dryer.
Now take your comb and create a precise middle part. This is important because your hair will be laying like curtains on both sides of your face, so the shape needs to be perfect. When the parting is done, take the end of our brows as the guide and separate hair on both sides at the front measuring two inches away from your forehead. The hair for the bangs should be separated in an inverted U shape. Don’t forget to secure the rest of your hair with clips after each parting.
Tie up the rest of your hair with a hair tie and take your separated hair for the bangs. Spray some water on your hair and create a precise middle part within your separated hair. Now, take the middle of your brow as your guide and separate some hair from both sides again. Cut this section of hair up until your nose level. Wet this part of the hair to see if the cut has been precise and uniform.
Now with the longer separated part from before, bring them in the front and cut them up until your lips level. Spray water and check again. On both sides, take the separated hair together and give the ends a proper and precise angular cut so that the curtain shape is achieved. This means the middle part will have shorter hair and the length will increase down the sides.
Check if the lengths are similar on both sides. Now bring out some extra pieces of hair on both sides right beside the end of your brows, and cut these hairs in a longer length to adjust with your previously cut hair so that it gets the perfect curtain shape.
Take your blow dryer and round hairbrush to dry out the hair and give it a volumized look. When done, comb out your hair and take your hair rollers. Section off your hair into three parts in the right, middle, and left, and use the rollers to curl your bangs. When the hair is perfectly curled, take out the rollers and adjust your bangs with the rest of your hair.
This is how you can get the perfect curtain bangs right at home. You can style the rest of your hair to match your bangs, and leave your hair untied to witness the beauty of your perfectly cut bangs. It’s as easy as that, so if you are confident enough, do give it a try!
