Changes help to shake things up and find our iconic looks. Alas, our hair experiments are not always a success and impulsive cutting may end with the long and awkward period of growing out your bangs again.
Whether you want to get a rest from your bangs for a day or two, regret cutting one, or just cannot find time for the much-needed trim, there are 20 hairstyles for growing out bangs that will help you hide your fringe and get it away from your face for a while.
What to do with bangs that are growing out? First of all, don’t forget that your bangs need regular trims – this will make you lose just a bit of length, but your hair will grow faster, speeding up the growing out process.
It is difficult to tell how long it will take to grow out your bangs, as the starting point matters most here. Needless to say, short bangs are the most difficult to grow. On the other hand, curtain bangs, which are all the rage now, look good at every stage of the process and gradually transform into face-framing pieces.
