Cutting curtain bangs – instructions:
- If you want to cut curtain bangs yourself, it is important that you use professional scissors. The household scissors we have at home make our hair dull and brittle and are unsuitable for this.
- First, comb your hair well, create a middle part and divide it to the right and left.
- To be on the safe side, we recommend you take a small section. The wider the triangle, the thicker the curtain bangs will be and vice versa.
- Tie the remaining hair into a low ponytail with a hair tie.
- Once you have separated the triangular section, pull it down towards your face and think about how long you want to cut the curtain bangs.
- And now the fun begins! Take one of the strands between your index and middle fingers and cut the ends of the hair below the fingers at a slight angle. Make sure that you hold the hair loosely. If you pull too hard, they will appear longer and you may end up cutting off too much.
- When cutting curtain bangs, it is important that you proceed carefully and slowly. So it's better to cut twice and not rush anything. Once you're happy with the result, repeat the process on the other side of the part.
- Already finished? Now comb the curtain bangs once and if you see strands that are longer than the others, cut them at an angle. And voilà – you have the perfect curtain bangs!

Curtain bangs can be styled so quickly
Have you cut your curtain bangs and are you happy with the result? Then it’s time for the fun part – the styling! The best thing about the trend hairstyle is that it is incredibly easy to care for and can be shaped in less than 5 minutes. Of course, curtain bangs, like any other bangs, require a certain amount of effort, but they are significantly more time-saving than classic bangs. Curtain bangs are all about lightness and casualness. To achieve the undone look you want, you can either blow-dry your hair with a round brush or simplylet air dry.
The side curtain bangs
Curtain bangs have the power to transform even the simplest haircut into something chic and trendier. The main reason we love curtain bangs is their versatility. There is hardly another pony that can be worn in so many different ways. The side parting is back in trend this fall and ensures that the hair looks even more voluminous and full. So blow-dry the curtain bangs upside down with a hairdryer and then apply some volumizing powder. Then add a few retro curls to your hair and your hairstyle will be a real eye-catcher.
