Perhaps one of the most defining characteristics of the nostalgic 1970s glam are the iconic feathered curls. There’s no need to go too far outside of your comfort zone to try out this retro-inspired style; simply dry and style your curls away from your face, making sure to incorporate some added flip to the bangs. Make sure to spray with a firm-hold hairspray to keep your feathered curls in place all day!

It’s no secret that curtain bangs are back in style, heralded as one of the most popular summer styles of 2022. So popular, in fact, that the likes of A-list celebrities like Kate Hudson are getting in on the action! Highlight your face shape by asking for some messy curtain bangs. If you’re on the fence about how short to go, start with some cheek-length bangs as a jumping-off point!

Don’t worry; we could never forget about the shag. Our stylists at the Z Hair Academy cosmetology school in Lawrence recommend adding some “piecey” ends to your feathered style for a more imperfect and messy look. Bonus: this cut is extremely low-maintenance and easy to style!
