The only advice I would give is to give the curves some definition if you just to it half heartedly it can look like you just haven't edged the lawn very well.
Nibble a bit off at a time using a half moon. It's a lot easier to remove the grass than to put it back!
Take time before you start( at the hose stage) and during the nibbling to look at it from an upstairs window -unless you live in a bungalow
I definitely put all my energy into doing it properly as can’t stand doing things by half and looking rubbish
reason why I wanted to do it as my garden looks bit too neat so needs something else to make stand out better but I do like a tidy and neat garden I know some people don’t
once I do the curves do I need put any edging around it to keep it looking trim
I've made it look like a wide gently winding pathway (so the curves roughly follow each other on either side) that leads to the end. The lawn gets a little narrower toward the end too which gives the impression of greater depth.
As said above don't go for lots of curves - it just looks messy.
