Haircuts with bangs are always fun until you have to style them yourself. Whether you have blunt bags, wispy fringe, or trendy curtain bangs, you need to know how to style them properly for a fail-proof ‘do.
With countless hair tutorials now available online, finding a helpful guide to style bangs sounds easy. But good styling skills, especially when bangs are involved, come with experience. So, if you need something quick and simple, here are three life-saving hacks that take minutes but make your fringe look as if you put a lot of effort into it.
If you’re still struggling to give your bangs some volume, this hair trick is for you! Get your favorite curling iron and place it underneath your fringe. Apply heat to the roots by gently rocking the tool backwards and forwards.
When the hair is still hot, wrap the bangs around a Velcro roller. Let the hair cool down around the roller and then gently release it. Don’t forget to add some hair spray for a stronger hold and lasting effect. And there you have it – instant volume and bounce!
Have you ever wondered how curtain bangs are styled to achieve a magnetizing face-framing look? This hair artist knows the drill when it comes to styling bangs. She gladly shares her go-to hair hack for a put-together fringe. For this styling trick, you’ll need a flat iron and only a couple of minutes. First things first, comb your front pieces and grab one side of the curtain bangs.
Clamp the strand with a straightener at the roots and twist the tool a bit as if you’re about to curl it. You surely remember how to curl hair with a straightener, right? Move the flat iron in the opposite direction, up and away from the face. So, if you’re working with the left side of your fringe, move the hot tool to the right before bringing it down. You get a slight curl that keeps your curtain bangs in place.
Let’s say you want bangs but don’t know if they’ll suit you. Sounds familiar? Then, try out this fake bangs hairstyle on curly locks first! Separate your front pieces while tying the rest of your hair in a high bun. Fold the front strands, regulating the length of your faux bangs.
Secure the folded sections with bobby pins at the top of your head. Once done, cover your grips with a plastic headband with a satin scarf tied around its middle. That’s it! Now, you know how those cute bangs will look on you.
