The bangs turn the two side sections into a frame, and the three hard lines together draw an almost geometric box around the face: one horizontal across the brow, one vertical drop on each side ending at the cheek. The front is cut solid rather than thinned, so enough hair has to come from behind the hairline to keep it dense. All three sections are short enough to show any wave, so straightening them is not optional.

Suitsoblong, heart face shapes. Solid bangs delete the forehead from the visible face, cutting the run of a long outline and shading the broad upper third of a heart shape.
Hair typemedium density, thick, straight. Solid bangs need density right at the front hairline, and any curl pattern will shrink them upward as they dry.
UpkeepBang trims every two to three weeks and side panels every six, which makes this a high-maintenance shape to keep looking sharp.
