Last month, I got bangs. I’ve always had side bangs, but haven’t had a front fringe since I was 17.
Bangs can look great on anybody, whether blunt, wispy, or asymmetrical.
For example:
- If you have a long face, you can handle a blunt fringe.
- If you’ve got a somewhat square face, you should go wispy.
- If you have a bigger forehead, straight bangs will camouflage and soften.
- An oval face (like mine) can wear any style of bangs. Side, frontal part, fringe, etc.
Let’s look at the different types of bangs:
- Straight: exactly what it sounds like, around the eyebrows.
- Choppy: uneven bangs add flair to your hairstyle.
- Side Swept Bangs: exactly what it sounds like, creates a sleeker look.
- Wispy: soft bangs along the forehead
- Blunt: come down over the forehead and are cut very bluntly to create an edgier look
So..why should you have bangs?
- It makes you look younger. Come on ladies, who doesn’t want to look younger? I’m getting carded again and it feels damn good!
- You’ll save foundation (and, in turn, save money). How, you ask? Because you don’t have to put any on your forehead, your bangs completely cover it!
- When your brows are unruly, you don’t have to rush to get a wax/thread job. YOUR BANGS (could) COVER THEM!
- You’ll look like a Rock Star. I especially love my bangs when I’m wearing big sunglasses and a leather jacket.
- Do you have an oily t-zone? No more hassle for you! Why? Because YOUR BANGS COVER IT.
- Are you catching my drift yet? No? How about one more?
- Do you have a large forehead? Your bangs wills make it look smaller. Do you have a long face? Your bangs will make your face appear shorter.
- You should be convinced by now
and in case you still aren’t convinced (though I’m sure you are. I made some pretty awesome points), here are a few pictures to prove my argument further:
