7. Face-Framing Curtain Layers
Straightening hair that has been cut with long, face-framing layers creates a beautiful, soft aesthetic. The layers prevent the hair from looking like a heavy “curtain” and instead allow it to drape naturally around your features, which is particularly flattering for round or square face shapes.
How to Make
After pressing your hair, use a flat iron to give the face-framing layers a very slight, subtle inward curve toward your face. This prevents the ends from looking sharp and rigid and instead makes the cut look soft, romantic, and well-blended. A light, flexible-hold hairspray is sufficient to keep the layers in place without making the hair look stiff.
Things Needed
- Flat iron
- Flexible-hold hairspray
- Rattail comb (for sectioning)
- Heat protectant
- Smoothing cream
