Saw a client in Phoenix with the most perfect curtain bangs I've ever done

I cut them about six months ago and she came back in today, they had grown out but still kept the shape so well. It made me realize I used a different texturizing method that time, just a few quick point cuts at the ends. Do you think that specific technique helps curtain bangs grow out cleaner?

Point cutting at the ends is a solid move for texture, but the real trick is how you cut the initial shape. If the bangs are cut too blunt or too short at the start, no texturizing method will save the grow-out phase. That perfect shape staying for six months means you nailed the length and angle from the get-go. The point cuts just helped it not look heavy as it grew.

Ever think about how hair type changes the game here? Like @fiona_murphy is totally right about the base shape, but fine hair needs way less point cutting than thick hair to avoid looking wispy.

Wait so for fine hair is there a specific angle you gotta cut at to keep the bangs looking full without point cutting too much? Ive got fine hair myself and every time i try point cutting even a little it just turns into these sad wispy strings that dont blend at all. But if i skip it the blunt ends look super harsh and the whole shape gets ruined after like two weeks of growth. Its such a pain because i want that soft grown-out vibe without having to go back to the salon every month. Do you just leave the ends completely blunt and rely on the initial cut angle to carry the look?
