#1: Layers and Blunt Ends
I highly recommend a haircut that combines layers and blunt ends. Having a blunt perimeter is a great approach if you want your finer hair to appear fuller. Long layers in your hair will provide movement. This style will look even more striking with waves. Curling your hair away from the face and then changing direction creates more texture in your hair. This method also stops your hair from clumping.
#2: Textured Lob with Purple Highlights
If you’re feeling fun, funky, and playful, consider a textured lob with purple highlights. Long, textured layers make this one of the easiest styles to create volume and movement. Shorter strands of hair mixed within longer layers will hold the longer strands away from your head. If you want to try purple highlights, ask your stylist to lift your blonde to a very light shade. It’ll give your purple the most “pop.”

They will need to maintain enough length for the line to sit perfectly. A round brush is going to be your friend. Sit the brush on top of the sections, pull down, and round for an amazing glam look.
#16: Long Layers and Long Curtain Fringe
This medium-length cut is perfect for women in their 40s who don’t want to go for a drastic chop. I suggest adding lots of texture through the layers to make the style look more effortless.

Cosmetologist Kristen Odonnell of Steubenville, OH, is an expert in layers and bangs. She points out how one must have a middle part when opting for a curtain fringe. “If the partition of the hair is on the side, or if you opt for straight bangs, it gives a completely different look,” Odonnell points out.
The best part of having layers is its ability to showcase a new style without losing lots of your hair length. Bardot curtain bangs and face-framing layers create a brand new look without the need for a big chop.
Hair consultation is critical when getting curtain bangs with layers. Be clear in communicating what you want your hair to look like. It’s best to inform your stylist where you want your layers to start and the length you want to go for your fringe.
Odonell shares some tips for this cut. “Cut the hair when wet then, blow-dry to visualize where you want the layers to hit,” she says.
She also points out some downsides when getting this cut. “It’s not ideal for women who wear their hair up or play sports a lot. It’s not ideal if you don’t want any strands hanging down your face.”
She explains, “Because the pieces around the face are shorter, they tend to fall. It can be a good or bad thing. Some people like to have the pieces fall out of their ponytail to frame their faces.”
