Saw a huge jump in curtain bangs at my shop in Cincinnati last month

Three years ago, maybe one client a week asked for them, but last week alone I did seven. It started with a regular, Sarah, who brought in a picture from a show, and now it feels like everyone wants that soft, face-framing look. Has anyone else had to get really quick at cutting these?

I read somewhere that curtain bangs are actually one of those styles that suits a ton of face shapes, which is probably why they're everywhere now (unlike those ultra-blunt straight across ones).

I mean, I can cut them in my sleep now.

Cutting them in your sleep sounds about right, my hands just do it on autopilot now.

Honestly, it's just hair. It'll grow out or they'll get bored of it in six months. Feels like people see one thing online and suddenly it's a huge deal everyone has to have. Not saying it's hard to cut, but the way some talk about it, you'd think we're doing brain surgery.
