Bangs for Curly Hair: Style Advice
Almost every woman at some point would have looked in the mirror asking herself the age old question “Should I get bangs?” If you’ve ever wanted to try bangs but have found taking the plunge a little daunting, there are definitely styles that work well with curly bangs.
When worked into a curly mane, bangs can achieve an on-trend vibe that’s effortless, yet adds a striking feature to your regular style. As with all hairstyles though, making curly bangs work is all about knowing your particular hair type and how it can be styled to suit you.
Bangs for curly hair styles
Not all curly hair types are created equal. If you want to commit to curly bangs, it’s important to know the type of curls you have. Most cuts need to take into account that there are commonly three main types of curly hair, and each has different characteristics that will influence what kind of curly bangs will work for you.
How to style curly bangs
Styling curly hair with bangs opens up a range of hairstyle options. The addition of bangs really changes up the look and feel of curls, adding a hint of 70s vibe to any style. If you want to change things up every day or have a go-to style that’s failsafe, these hairstyles are a useful addition to your hair look book.
1. Messy Top Knot
There’s something so effortless about a relaxed top knot and the addition of curly bangs gives it a slightly coquettish vibe. To try this style, flip your hair over, shake your hair around to enhance the volume and tie it into a loose high ponytail-but don’t pull your hair all the way through. Using a bobby pin, pin any loose strands down. Pull out a few tendrils of hair to add some face framing layers to enhance your curly bangs.
2. Low Ponytail
Curly hairstyles don’t get easier than this classic style. Pull your hair back loosely into a low ponytail and secure with a hair elastic. Run Curl Manifesto Crème De Jour Fondamentale Curly Hair Cream through your hair to reduce frizz and define curls. If you’d like to showcase your bangs, pull a few tendrils out to frame your face.
3. Classic Hair Down
When you’ve got a mane of gorgeous curls why not show it off? The striking nature of curly bangs brings attention to your hairstyle so it pays to ensure it’s looking its best. Add some definition with Curl Manifesto Crème De Jour Fondamentale Curly Hair Cream, or if you’re working with second day hair or between washes, spritz the Curl Manifesto Miracle Curl Refreshing Spray to rejuvenate your locks.
