About Blunt Bangs

For blunt bangs, hair is taken from the center of the forehead and cut straight just above the brows. How thick the bangs are, meaning how far back they start, shapes the effect: thick bangs look more dramatic, thin bangs softer. Combined with long hair, they create a classic, slightly retro look.

On long faces, they shorten the forehead and balance proportions, and on heart-shaped faces they soften a wide forehead. On a round face, thinner bangs with slightly longer edges are the better choice. Bangs grow fast, so plan on a trim every three to four weeks, which many salons do as a quick appointment.

Do blunt bangs suit a round face?

Thinner bangs with slightly longer edges work better on a round face. Thick, perfectly straight bangs can make the face look wider. The easiest way to see the difference is to try them on your own photo.

How do I choose between blunt bangs and curtain bangs?

Blunt bangs are crisp and dramatic; curtain bangs are soft and easy to grow out. If you’re unsure, try both on the same photo first and compare them side by side.
