Quick answer

What is a fringe cut, and which bangs suit me?

A fringe cut shapes the front section of your hair into bangs that frame the face. Side bangs sweep to one side for a soft look, curtain bangs part in the middle to frame both cheeks, and a full fringe covers the forehead. At Soonsiki Moment Hongdae, the stylist picks length and density after analyzing your face shape and hairline.

FAQ

Bangs & fringe questions, answered

What is the difference between side bangs and curtain bangs?

Side bangs are swept to one side for a natural, elegant look that softens strong facial lines. Curtain bangs are parted in the middle to frame both sides of the face, and work especially well with a layered cut and long hair.

Can I get only bangs without a full haircut?

Yes. A bangs cut refreshes your look while keeping your existing hairstyle, and is blended into your current cut. If you want a full change, combine it with a hair cut.

Will bangs suit my face shape?

Your stylist analyzes your face shape, forehead length and hairline first, then adjusts style, length and density — so there is usually a version that flatters you.

How do I keep bangs in shape at home?

You receive simple blow-drying tips after the cut. For bangs that hold their shape with less effort, ask about a bangs perm.

How much does a fringe cut cost?
