Explore an open, parted fringe

Try curtain bangs at different lengths

Curtain bangs open near the center and blend toward the sides. Their shortest point and side length change the effect as much as their volume. The examples range from a fuller collarbone fringe to long face-framing sections, so compare the opening and length rather than only the hairstyle name.

What to compare

  1. Choose where the shortest section ends

    A shorter center section changes how much forehead is covered; longer sections can read more like face-framing layers. Describe an endpoint near the brows, cheeks or chin, then check whether the generated result follows it.

  2. Keep the rest of the cut stable

    Start with a prompt that preserves your length, color and main silhouette. If you choose a template, its layers and color may change too. Compare bangs on the same base hairstyle before deciding on a complete makeover.

  3. Look at the blend into the sides

    Curtain bangs should connect visually to the front layers you want. Inspect the part, temples and ends for abrupt joins or invented strands. Ask your stylist about your parting habit and growth direction; the preview does not test those.

Questions before you try

How are curtain bangs different from blunt bangs?

Curtain bangs leave an opening and extend toward the sides; blunt bangs form a more continuous edge across the forehead. Use the main bangs page if you want to compare those distinct directions.

Can I try curtain bangs without cutting the rest of my hair?

You can request that comparison in text mode by asking to keep the current length and color. AI can still alter surrounding details, so check the whole result before using it as a reference.

Are long face-framing layers the same as short curtain bangs?

No. They can share a center part and outward sweep, but their shortest point can be much lower. Some examples here show long framing rather than brow-level bangs; use them to choose the amount of fringe you want.
