Hey Gabbi! I cannot even say how perfect the timing was for this video! I had needed to get my highlights & cut done Today, Fri 4/28 so seeing your video a couple day's ago took the anxiety out of my appointment today. I got your exact hair cut, & it looks Fabulous!!!

Bangs and curly fine hair have a scary past in my life (in the 1980s mostly!)….. but Gabby, I trust you, and if you can do it, then maybe I can too. Thanks for the continual inspiration to try new things! 🤍

[@GlamGirlGabi]

If you have curly hair, you have to take into account that it will spring up. I think curly face framing is SOOOOO pretty. However, the effect is different then on straight or blown out hair (like what I showed). If you're interested in trying it, take these ideas to your stylist so she can customize it for your hair texture. Don't try to cut it yourself at home.

[@imthedailymaker]

[@eliwilliamson7849]

Beautiful! Thanks for the reminder that Velcro rollers only work when heat is applied. I rolled my flat hair today and it went flat pretty quickly after I took the rollers out. BOO! Learned the lesson and I ran out of hairspray on the same hair project.

[@SirenaSpades]

I have thick hair so this may not work for you, but I just use a 1 1/4 inch curling iron. I only do the front section. The idea is easy, not to have to do the whole head like in the past few years. No way am I doing rollers or anything like that.

[@turragorman59]

Totally agree with curtain bangs. I have them and they definitely soften the facial features. I always wore my hair in middle part and shoulder length. I just feel a little more style now, especially when wearing hair up. I think you and Justin H. shoulder do the perfect Bob Collab in future, would be interesting to see what you both come up with.

[@GlamGirlGabi]

We actually filmed a collaboration video on Portland last week! We did a style off where we had our own individual models and three hours and we had to compete to see who could give the biggest makeover to their client. Styles by Summer was in it too. Stay tuned!

[@BipolarCourage]

I like to use the velcro rollers when feel like a style change & more volume

[@nolasfamily3913]

After having one length hair, I took the leap and cut my hair in curtain bangs. I love the results and like you, I like the 90's supermodel look. I use velcro rollers too. I have yet to master the heated dryer brush. When I got it for Christmas I tried and my hair looked unruly and frizzy. I use a flat iron once a week and my hair stays smooth. I would like to use the iron less. Would you consider doing another video. Your hair looks so smooth and silky. I asked you this before, perhaps you didn't see it. What are your thoughts about Lamaller water? Thumbs up!

I have a pretty long face too so I can completely relate. What kind of haircut do you have now and do you find that it is doing a good job of flattering the things that you don't necessarily love?

Thank you for showing the comb technique for taming a cowlick. I have one on the back of my head that drives me crazy. I will try this technique.

Yes! It is called "confusing the root". Try it! It works AMAZINGLY well. The only thing is that the hair HAS TO BE WET. If your hair is dry, it will not work.

I can do this quick routine as shown here now for those days in between washing. Thank you Gabi 😊💕

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Hey Antonia! What you can do too is wash JUST YOUR BANGS in the sink. I do that sometimes on days when I don't wash my hair but I want to look super pretty. I just wash and style the front section (which is the only section that really matters anyway! lol) Hopefully that helps.

I agree about the length of curtain bangs. They look best on me at chin length too. I took a screen shot of your inspiration photos to show my stylist at my next appointment. I was recently tempted to go for a shorter cut but decided I like my hair best at just above shoulder length even though I will be 65 soon. My hair isn’t quite as long as in the photos, but that’s the general look I want too! Thanks for the cowlick tip! Mine are stubborn.

[@selectiveoutrage6617]

I have a longish face made longer with a high forehead and high cheekbones, strong chin. I wear a bob but wanted a bixie for summer. Are curtain bangs advisable with a bixie or should I stick to straight blunt cut bangs?

[@SirenaSpades]

I already did the 90's lol You make me laugh :) I have a modified version of this, and I cut bangs into them. It's a nice softer look. I brought a picture in with me of a KZbinr when I wanted the cut done. I just had this done last year, before that I had no bangs and had very long hair. I have bang trims scheduled fairly frequently and full haircuts not so much, but in a couple weeks I have the full haircut, I may have the curtain part more exaggerated after seeing this. I CANNOT do the long bang/curtain like you, the hair in my face drives me absolutely NUTS! I pin it back at home. And I have to keep cutting the center myself because I cannot stand them in my face.

[@kaileena7]

I have curtain bangs and they are super flattering on rounder faces like mine! As you said, they really can frame your face nicely if they are cut well for your face shape. Love them but I'm too scared to ever cut them myself but if I do decide someday, I'll use this video. Oh, and I have a side part that I always wear on the right side so yeah, hard to switch to another part because they'll look weird but that's how I like it so that's how they cut them for me. Absolutely can be worn with a side part but terms and conditions may apply etc. :D Oh, one thing though - they always fall down on my face after a bit of time, even with rollers. Do I need to hair spray them aggressively? :D

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Yes they do look great with rounder faces! They frame the jawline so well and naturally contour the face. In this video, I didn't teach how to cut them but I taught you how to style them so that they sit beautifully. So your stylist cut them on a side part? That is perfect. Then it's almost like a side swept longer fringe. If they fall into your face, you want to use a medium hold hairspray and make sure that you hit the root with the spray so that you freeze the position from the root. Does that make sense?

[@paulavella4961]

Looks great! Can you tell me if you color your hair, if so what color, make of tint is in this thumbnail and video. Also what you use to get your hair so shiny? Thanks, Gabby x

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Hey! So I have been on this journey for a year and a half and I have not coloured my hair at all. 90% of my har is virgin but there are some grown out highlights right at the bottom. Do you see that? If I were to make this color using the Goldwell color line, my natural color is a 4N but my highlights are around a 7NA. My hair is shiny because it is super super healthy now and also because of the way that I blow it out with a hot air brush. The hot air brush from TYMO has completely changed the way my hair looks. It's super soft and full looking after I use it. I only use it twice a week though so that I don't create too much heat damage.

[@mariadesantis51938]

BANGS….. my friend and my enemy! Ok Gabi so my question is can this work with wavy/curly combination hair that also is course? I’ve had them longer, I’ve had them shorter and the thing that drives me bonkers is that if there’s the slightest bit of humidity they look horrible. Is it possible to keep them looking pretty on humid/rainy/hot days?? 🤔

It could work but, just like you said, the part has to be shifted to the side. This is a great example of the fringe needing to be customized to suit your growth pattern. Make sure to brings your stylist lots of picture ideas and ask her what she thinks can be done based on the inspiration + your individual growth pattern. That is always key!

PUT THEM IN DAMP HAIR FOR SUPER SHINE AND HOLD! Yes, the good old fashion curler set leaves the hair in the shiniest, healthiest strongest set qnd it's much easier than messing around trying to style with q blow dryer. Try your bangs/fringe from damp directly to roller. Hair doesn't even begin to hold q style until its 80% dry. Let it air dry or use the dryer just to remove the heavy moisture from towel dried hair.... i cannot emphasize the amount of shine styling your hair this way produces.

Wet sets work really well for hold but the hair has to be smooth to begin with. I have very wavy (leaning towards curly) hair. This would not be good for me because I need to manage the frizz before styling. Also - it’s not very practical for most people. Because my hair is curly, it’s porous so it holds into moisture. It would take hours upon hours to dry even if I placed the rollers when my hair was 80 percent dry. If this works best for you though, then you should absolutely do it this way. Everyone’s hair is unique and we have to do whatever works best for us.

@@GlamGirlGabi I hope I wasn't sounding critical. I too am a curly, frizz head! I learned through trial and error how to work with this stuff. I am also a cosmetologist for many decades now. The old roller sets under the dryer were something but they definitely gave us some good experience 😁🤪. Fortunately, in the eighties, my hair was easy to fix and it was fabulous! Trying to change it over to a smooth straighten , and softer look in the 90s was pretty tough for a few years until the proper tools were created. (In the 70s, high school, just long, blunt weighed down a lot of the curls but I was never happy and unexperienced in styling) You are right, we live and learn the best ways to fix our hair. I have been using one large roller at the fringe area for years, no matter how it is cut and styled. I will often sleep in top rollers straight down the top and sometimes whip out electric rollers for a faster finish. All this for a smooth full look. I guess we are indeed doing what we know best! ... I enjoy watching you. I will delete that comment if you like. I didn't mean to contradict you.

Oh yeah, I'm old as hell now, as you can tell❤

@@vlrissolo Oh goodness do not delete it! It did not offend me AT ALL. I think having discussions and opinions in the comments is the best thing ever. Someone else can read this, try it and have it work fabulously on them! Just because it doesn't work for me does not mean it won't work for someone else. Opinions and perspectives are important and I value you for adding to the conversation!

I wanted to get curtain bangs but my stylist just made me a ‚leveled‘ fringe? I dunno how to call it. But it’s just shortest at the beginning of my middle part and gets longer the way down. It don’t look that bad tho, but I wanted curtain bangs. 😢 now I have to wait for them to grow out longer… *sigh*
