Are you tired of your same old hairstyle and looking for a change? Curtain bangs are the latest trend and a perfect way to switch things up. However, not everyone is ready to commit to a permanent change. Don't worry; you can fake curtain bangs with a curling iron! In this step-by-step guide, we'll show you how to achieve the perfect look without committing to a permanent change.
How to Fake Curtain Bangs with Curling Iron
To fake curtain bangs with a curling iron, you will need the following:
- Curling Iron
- Heat Protectant Spray
- Hair Clips
- Hairspray
Step 1: Prep Your Hair
Start by washing and drying your hair. Apply heat protectant spray to your hair to prevent heat damage. Comb your hair to remove any tangles.
Step 2: Section Your Hair
Next, section your hair from ear to ear, creating two sections. Clip the top section away to focus on the bottom section.
Step 3: Curl Your Hair
Take a small section of hair from the bottom section and wrap it around the curling iron, away from your face. Hold for a few seconds and release. Repeat this process for the entire bottom section of hair.
Step 4: Create the Curtain Bangs
Once you have curled the bottom section, let down the top section of hair. Take a small section of hair and curl it away from your face. Twist the curl back towards your face and pin it in place with a hair clip. Repeat this process for the rest of the hair in the top section.
Step 5: Set Your Hair
Spray hairspray on your hair to set the curls in place. Remove the hair clips from the top section of your hair, and voila! You now have fake curtain bangs with a curling iron.
Tips for Perfect Curtain Bangs
- Use a smaller curling iron for tighter curls.
- Use a larger curling iron for looser curls.
- Twist the curls for a more natural look.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different styles.
FAQ
Can I use a straightener instead of a curling iron?
Yes, you can use a straightener to create fake curtain bangs. Follow the same steps as with a curling iron, but instead of wrapping the hair around the curling iron, run the straightener down the hair and twist it back towards your face.
How long will my fake curtain bangs last?
Your fake curtain bangs can last up to two days, depending on how well you take care of them. Use hairspray to set the curls in place and avoid touching your hair too much.
Hair Care for Curtain Bangs
To keep your curtain bangs looking fresh, wash your hair every two to three days. Use a dry shampoo in between washes to keep your hair looking clean. Apply a hair oil to the ends of your hair to keep them moisturized.
Now you know how to fake curtain bangs with a curling iron! Follow these steps to achieve the perfect look without committing to a permanent change. Don't forget to experiment with different styles and have fun!
