Curtain bangs part near the center and frame the face with longer pieces at the sides. For a softer, longer fringe, see our Elinor-inspired curtain haircut guide.

    I'm really bored with my hair and I want to try something different. I think I would look good with bangs but I have no idea what kind I should get. I have an oval face shape but it's also angular, if that makes sense. I am open to any suggestion except side swept bangs.

    Hey there I have quite curly and thick hair, I straighten it all the time I really really would like side swept bangs and layers but I'm so scared it won't suit my face shape or my hair type I only wear my hair curly around the house or whenever I do not have time to straighten it because I absolutely hate it curly i know its bad but to straighten it all the time but i just hate it curly. I'm hoping I can get my hair thinned and layered and some side swept bangs that will look good when I straighten my hair, any advise ??
