Curtain Bangs and Beach Waves Tutorial

Curtain Bangs are all the rage right now! Follow along with our owner as she teaches you how to style curtain bangs for a soft beach waves look!

Tips For Styling Curtain Bangs

• Use a round brush to blow-dry your bangs by pulling them forward in front of your face. Using a round brush will make them look light and hold their shape

• Hold your curling iron in a vertical position to get loose beachy waves. Holding it horizontally will result in bouncy volume curls

• Curl sections that are as big as your curling iron (in this case no more than 1 1.4 inch)

• Hold your hair straight out from your head (90 degrees) will give you the most volume

• Start your curls close to your scalp, not just the ends of your hair

• Keeping tension in the piece you are curling will help you get a cleaner and more consistent curl from scalp to end

• Keep your hot tolls at 350 degrees, and only keep your curling iron in your hair for 5-7 seconds

• Ask for long modern layers (or increasing layers) with curtain bangs to get the best haircut for this style

Tips For Getting Big Curls:

• Heat your curling iron to 350. This will help your hair hold the curl without damaging it.

• Hold your hair straight out from your head at a 90-degree angle to get the most volume.

• Let your curl cool before touching it. This will help your curls last much longer

• Use sections just as wide as your curling iron, so typically about 1 inch

Tips for Curling Your Hair for the Perfect Beach Curl:

• Use Redken No Blow Dry Cream the first day and let your hair air dry. Then touch up your curls with a 1 inch curling on the second day if needed. Wrap hair around the curling iron (like you would with a curling wand), don’t clamp it in.

• Heat your curling iron to 350 degrees.

• If your hair doesn’t have any natural waves or texture then you’ll want to add EIMI Ocean Spritz to your hair before and after blow-drying in a “scunching” manner.
