Layered Bob with Curtain Bangs
A shoulder-length layered bob with face-framing curtain bangs adds soft volume around the jawline, gently balancing a defined forehead — an easy everyday style for inverted triangle faces.

Wearing this with an inverted triangle face
An inverted triangle face is broadest at the forehead and cheekbones and narrows sharply to a small, pointed chin. It's close to a heart shape but with a straighter, wider top.
Chin-length bobs, soft layers and volume at the ends are options to explore when you want lower-face framing.
A short, sleek cut with an exposed forehead keeps the focus higher on the face. Use that direction when it reflects your intended style.
Which bob length or layers will sit well with my texture, face-framing preference and willingness to style the ends?
What it takes to wear
- Maintenance
- Medium upkeep
- Styling time
- 10-15 minutes
- Best hair type
- Wavy hair
Rough-dry the layers, then use a round brush only on the fringe and face-framing pieces. Finish with texture spray through the mids and ends so the cut keeps separation instead of collapsing flat.
