What Are Curtain Bangs Disadvantages?
Curtain bangs can be sweaty – keep it in mind, which can cause zit breakouts and slogged pores on your forehead. Curly girls are left out for a certain reason, straight and slightly wavy hair looks nice with curtain bangs but very curly hair doesn’t show them off at all. If the place where you live is windy, forget curtain bangs, they are more likely not to work, unless you go for a lot of hair spray.

Are Curtain Bangs High Maintenance?
While you can get away with leaving curtain-style bangs longer between trims (because of their effortless look), to keep them in shape I would still recommend a trim every 5-6 week. Bangs sit right there on your face so it makes sense to be particular and keep them looking perfect, no matter their length. Depending on how curtain bangs are cut will decide what kind of maintenance and the effort of styling you will need. If you enjoy having the more elegant, particular style and cut to your hair, your maintenance and styling are going to be more tricky but it’s totally worth it. Blow drying your bangs and treating them with a flat iron is a good idea if you want a flattering look, there are special videos on Youtube that will tell you how to do that easily.
