The thing about curly hair is that, just like any other hair, it shrinks shortly after being washed. And since dealing with shrunken hair bangs is always difficult especially for amateurs, it is a good idea for you to consider seeking the services of an accomplished hairdresser with years of experience as far as curly bangs are concerned.

And thanks to his or her experience dealing with curly bangs, your hairdresser will always know how to style your curly bangs correctly. Apart from knowing how to work with shrunken curly bangs, your experienced hairdresser is expected to know what curly bangs look best on different kinds of faces.

For instance, if you have a round face, your hairdresser will find the perfect bangs to suit your look shortly after examining it. The same will, more often than not, be the case when you choose to go for the layered curly hair coiffures. In short, always seek your hairdresser counsel as well as services when it comes to dealing with shrunken curly bangs.

Apart from seeking to tap from your hairdresser’s well of experience, it is important to also find one of those reliable ‘how to style your curly bangs’ tutorials. These tutorials will guide you when working with different lengths of curly hair as well as bangs. And in as much as the entire process is a bit tricky, you can always count on being a guru after practicing several times. 

But first, you’ll start by acknowledging that the length of your curly hair/bangs isn’t always directly proportional to what you actually see. Understanding this will help you a great deal when it comes to styling your curly bangs properly. You’ll also know when your curly hair has shrunken and how this shrinkage will affect the general look of your coiffure.

2. Let an experienced stylist work on your curly side bangs

Sometimes working on your curly bangs & layers can be a tricky state of affairs no matter how good you are. Therefore, working with an experienced – and equally gifted – hairdresser from time to time is indeed an incredible idea. In as much as coiffuring your own curly hair bangs is a good idea - as doing so will without a doubt save you money as well as time - allowing a professional to work on your curly bangs is, more often than not, the only huge difference between the beautiful hairdos and the regular hairdo.

Therefore, if you don’t want to run the risk of stepping out looking like Pennywise the Clown, then it will be in your best interest to allow your hairdresser the chance to not only work on your curly bangs but also give you some tips on how to manage your curly bangs & layers shortly after shrinking.

Besides, a hairdresser will have the perfect, 360-degree view of your head which is very important especially when working on hair layers, bangs and/or side bands.

That being said, always make a point of booking an appointment with your hairdresser once in a while and allowing him or her to style your hair/bangs correctly. This should also apply to women with short, curly hair. This is because most of them choose to skip scheduled appointments with their hairdresser just because they think they can “handle” short curly hair with ease.

Simply put, you should never make such an obvious but extremely huge mistake because curly hair isn’t as manageable as many might think. In other words, wearing curly hair on your long or round face needs a checkup from time to time especially if you’re keen on being on the safe side. 

3. Marinate on your curly hair & its unlimited possibilities

As earlier mentioned, there’re limitless possibilities especially when it comes to styling naturally curly hair. Therefore, you can choose to learn how to style your curly bangs just the way it is or have it straightened before you style it shortly after. You can also choose to have beautifully layered bangs or coiffure your hair into perfectly harmonized bangs & layers .

If you aren’t afraid of going overboard, you can have your strands of curly hair dyed in whichever color you desire. You can also opt for temporary faux locks wrapping the entire length of your curly hair whenever you start feeling that cool Rastafarian vibe crawling up your spine.

If you aren’t in the mood for overboard hairstyles, then you can simply wrap your curly hair into a messy heap before accessorizing it with a nice, colorful hairband. Also going for the usual, easy-to-maintain side bands won’t stop you from looking incredibly cute.

I guess what I’m trying to say in so many words is you can never go wrong with your beautiful curly hair simply because there will always be limitless options for you as far as styling your hair is concerned. But that being said, you’ll also be required to take time to learn all the above coiffures that befit your curly hair. Doing so is very important simply because it’ll help you avoid the obvious rookie mistakes likely to ruin your entire look. 

4. Find yourself a “curly bangs & layers hair twin”

If you’ve ever heard of the dictum two heads are better than one, then you’re definitely going to understand the point I am trying to put across. You’ll be required to find a “hair twin” with whom you’ll share all your curly hair information including secrets. You and your hair twin can always explore new curly hair tips, ideas as well as experiences which is usually as useful as it is fun.

The same will apply to when you’re learning new tips on how to maintain your short or long curly hair. As earlier mentioned, there’re several hairdos that tend to look good particularly on curly hair.

Therefore, finding someone to walk with you through your curly bangs or layers journey will make it fun and easy. And speaking of bangs, women with curly hair can enjoy different coiffures that come with different types bangs. Therefore, never shy away from learning how to style and wear them as well.

Some curly bangs tend to look extremely good on a round face while others look good on square faces and so on. In other words, knowing the shape of your face will go a long way in helping you make the right decisions as far as picking the right coiffure is concerned.

In addition to all the above, you and your “twin” will be required to plan visitations to the salon once every few weeks. And apart from learning and exchanging intel on layered bangs and curly hair in general, getting “schooled” on the same by an experienced hairdresser wouldn’t seem like such a bad idea.
