20 Soft Curtain Bangs Ideas for a Fabulous Look

Are curtain bangs right for you? The answer is yes. Varying the length and the thickness, you can give every face shape and hair texture the opportunity to rock the perfect bangs. I have included 20 soft curtain bangs ideas to help you find the best bang for your buck.

1. Soft Cheekbone Bangs

This bang hits right at the cheekbone and softly frames the face. This bang has also been referenced as the famous Bardot bang or 70’s bang! My favorite piece to this bang are the side bits. If you wear your hair up those pieces add so much to a pony or half updo. It’s a great bang to add to any haircut for a quick refresh.

These long curtain bangs sit at or below the chin, acting as a beautiful layer on long hair, and feathers softly to create that low maintenance curtain effect. If you are not fully committed to bangs, the chin bang is a great intro.

All my friends in glasses! If you think you can’t have bangs, think again. The curtain bangs often sit longer than other bangs, and one would assume they would interfere with the glasses. But they won’t, they add to the look! Bangs and glasses can be an accessory – pick the perfect pair and enjoy!
