What face shapes do curtain bangs suit best?

Curtain bangs are known for their versatility and ability to suit various face shapes. According to the search results, experts and stylists indicate that curtain bangs can work for almost anyone:

  • Heart-Shaped Face: Add width to the narrowest part of the face with a center-parted style, and swoop the bangs just above the jaw for balance.
  • Round Face: Opt for a length slightly longer with a thinner and wispier fringe, and an off-center parting to elongate the face and accentuate cheekbones.
  • Square Face: Choose a short wispy fringe and center parting to soften angles and elongate the face.
  • Rectangular Face: Use longer curtain bangs to balance out the face, finishing at or just below the cheekbones to soften features.
  • Oval Face: Considered a universal face shape, an oval face typically suits any curtain fringe type.
  • Diamond Face: Create the illusion of width with a shorter, heavier fringe and a slightly off-center parting.

These curtain bang styles are designed to flatter the individual features of each face shape by enhancing or balancing them. The versatility of curtain bangs also extends to hair types, working well for straight, wavy, curly, tightly curled, or Afro hair.
