Get bouncy bangs under your beanie with these 5 hacks!
So, you throw on your favorite beanie to brave the cold, but the moment you take it off indoors, your bangs are completely flat and formless? We’ve all been there, and it’s frustrating!
Thankfully, you don’t have to choose between staying warm and looking great. We’ve found five simple hacks that’ll help you wear your bangs with a beanie with no regret. Here’s how!
If you have wispy, textured bangs, this hack is about to change your life. Start by styling your bangs as you like them. You can add some texture, fluff them up, and get them sitting just right.
Now here’s the trick. Instead of pulling your beanie down over your forehead like usual, move the edge of the hat to sit right at the section where your hair and your bangs part. This way, your head and ears will stay toasty warm, but your bangs will stay bouncy and styled because the hat won’t actually cover them. It’s like having the warmth without the flatness!
Got blunt bangs? Lucky you! Things are much easier for you. The sharp edge of blunt bangs actually works in your favor when it comes to beanie-wearing. Just style them as you normally would, making sure they’re sitting nicely and even across your forehead.
Then, put your beanie on and make sure it covers the upper section of your bangs. This helps keep that structured form intact while adding a casual vibe to your whole look. The weight of the beanie actually helps hold everything in place rather than messing it up.
Planning to spend your whole day outdoors with a beanie on? Then you might not need to worry about styling your bangs at all! Just throw in some textured waves and add tiny braids throughout to maintain that cute beanie look.
And if you want to avoid that dreaded flatness when you finally take your hat off, apply some texturizing spray before going out to keep your hairstyle voluminous and lively!
Curtain bangs look absolutely gorgeous when they’re nice and swoopy. To keep them that way while still warming your head, use a small roller to secure your bangs before wearing your hat.
The roller will maintain that curved shape and natural lift while you’re bundled up outside. Once you get to your destination and take your beanie off, you can easily unwrap your fringe and let it fall into place.
If you have full bangs, try switching to a knitted bonnet instead of a regular beanie! This style is a game-changer because it lets you show off your front tendrils while keeping them bouncy all day long.
The key is to pull a little bit of hair out along the sides for that carefree look. Here’s the secret: the messier and fluffier you look, the cooler. A bonnet frames your face beautifully while giving your bangs room to breathe, so you get all the warmth without any of the flatness. Plus, it adds a vintage-inspired touch to your whole outfit!
These simple hacks will keep your bangs looking fabulous no matter how long you wear your beanie. Try them out and see which one works for your bang style!
