hair at the nape should be styled softly with a movement upward. Do not build
hair out, onto the forehead.

curls or bangs over the forehead. Keep the style close to the head at the nape.

forehead by building a fluffy bang with height. An upswept temple movement will
add length to the face. Soft curls in the nape area, soften the chin line. Do
not end the style line at the nape, this draws attention to the chin area.
