Many of us refuse the idea of cutting the bangs because of numerous what-ifs that come to mind. “What if they don’t match my appearance? What if I can’t style them? What if it is outdated and I don’t look fashionable and modern?” But it is time to end this and allow yourself a little experiment, which is easy to do with these mesmerizing photos of 16 fringe hairstyles trending in 2024.
Wispy bangs are a new classic, but you will never get bored with them as they are easy to adjust, working your magic through. You can ask to make it shorter at first and then grow it out slowly to reach this charming eyelash-grazing length.

Whether you have a fancy event to attend or plan on getting together with your girlfriends, a stylish blowout never hurts anybody. Start with the bangs, giving them this nice, soft lift while blow-drying with a round brush and parting them in the middle for a lovely framing look.

Long side bangs are beneficial in all senses, but most of all because of their ability to balance face shapes. For example, for round face shapes, a side-swept fringe can switch the focus from the face’s roundness, and for heart-shaped faces – soften the look by covering the forehead.

This low-maintenance fringe style differs in fullness that can be achieved effortlessly, even on the go. Don’t worry if you have no time for a professional blowout, as you can simply tousle your bangs at the roots and air-dry while getting ready for work.

Hairstyles with flipped-up layers bring your hair a sense of volume and movement, and you can enhance this effect with long curtain bangs. Style them with a round brush to get this charming curl at the ends, and allow the bangs to cover your cheeks softly.

Side bangs and feathered face-framing layers go hand in hand in the world of hairstyles trending in 2024. And we offer you to focus on emphasizing those features to make your new haircut truly iconic. Use a hair clay to give a subtly flip to the ends and apply a little to the bangs while parting them to the side, slightly swept away.

While choppy bangs may look somewhat messy, they make any haircut look cute and charming. Let us give you a little tip: start styling the bangs when they are still wet, and also do them first before you proceed with the rest of your hair. Thus, you can get the desired fringe shape by blow-drying it with a brush, going back and forth, and shaping it afterward.

This whole look exudes Parisian chic: a short bob with coquettish blunt bangs and red lipstick – that’s the vibe! Apart from looking stylish and charming, a shorter fringe also gives you more time in between stylist visits, as it looks the same as gorgeous while growing out.

Bangs that blend with the layers can create a perfect frame for your face, accentuating attention on your most prominent features. While the curtain fringe is typically parted in the middle, you can drape them across your forehead if they are not too long to fully cover your eyes.
@bysarahsofia
Thin, wispy bangs are best suited to square face shapes that require some softening without fully covering the forehead. They are also easy to put away, in case you decide to create a sleek, bangless hairstyle.

Our fringe muse, Sabrina Carpenter, made us fall in love with curtain bangs all over again by embracing her own version of this trend. If you wish to recreate it, ask for the shortest middle part to end below the eyebrows and style longer sides outwards, framing the face gently.

Medium-length hairstyles with bangs look extremely charming and charismatic, and this voluminous blunt lob proves this statement. The choppy cut fringe, which elongated to the sides, creates a lovely frame for your face, accentuating your sparkling eyes.
@dalyhair
Apart from looking hot and alluring, a lash-skimming bang style can also cover your high forehead, which can be relevant for some women with heart-shaped and rectangular faces. Style the bangs with a texturizing spray to give them this nice, tousled texture and prevent them from feeling flat and bulky.
@freijacollective
The middle part of this bang style is almost one length, but as it gets distinctively longer towards the sides, you realize it’s nothing else than a waterfall fringe. Long face-framing layers enhance this illusion of movement.
@jamesplainhair
Pixie with bangs is a timeless combination fitting young ladies and mature women. If you have an oval face shape, a micro fringe will be just right, saving an elongated shape the pixie creates while bringing an interesting accent to your appearance.

For haircuts with long layers, a see-through fringe will be that finishing touch that balances the whole look. These bangs require less maintenance than a full fringe, which is good news for busy ladies wishing for a style with no fuss.

Instead of explaining to your stylist how you want your bangs to look, show the photo reference to visualize your expectations. This will guarantee you get the hairstyle as close as possible to the original, and even better because your version will also suit your facial features.
