This short shag cut pairs dark chocolate brown waves with curtain bangs for an updated, modern look that frames an oval face. The blow-dry recommended style emphasizes texture and body in a neatly cropped silhouette.

Stylist's Tip

Use a volumizing mousse during blow-dry to amplify wave texture while keeping bangs sleek.
