The section is taken deep enough behind the hairline that the bangs have real density, then cut on a level line so all the weight stays at the bottom. That weight is the entire effect: the edge should look drawn on. It also means any wave or cowlick at the front will fight it, and most people end up flat-ironing the front even when the rest of the hair is left alone. Half an inch of growth puts them in the lashes.

  • Suitsoblong, diamond face shapes. A hard horizontal cuts the face into shorter thirds, which shortens a long outline and fills in the narrow forehead of a diamond one.
  • Hair typemedium density, thick, straight. It needs density to hold the line and a front section that dries straight, so coarse straight hair carries it and fine wavy hair does not.
  • UpkeepA trim every two to three weeks plus daily flat-ironing or blow-drying the front flat, which makes this one of the higher maintenance options.
