Long curtain bangs effortlessly merge with the strands on either side of your face, creating a stunning frame that accentuates your facial features. It’s the ideal choice for those with round or heart-shaped faces, giving you a fabulous face-framing effect.
@londonhaircut
To achieve this sweet and innocent look, simply ask your stylist to trim your fringe right above your eyebrows. Remember to schedule quick trims every few weeks to maintain its perfection.
@salsalhair
Introducing see-through bangs, a delicate and wispy fringe that adds a touch of softness to any haircut. These ethereal bangs by Yukistylist not only create a graceful look but also work wonders in balancing your face shape.
@yukistylist
Talented stylist Dusty Vickers from Ron King Austin Hair Salon created a “subtle warm dimension, with the flirtiest little cut” that features long side-swept bangs. When it comes to bangs, the longer they are, the more opportunities they offer for face-framing styles.
@doseofdust
If you have an oval-shaped face and longer hair, feathered bangs are the perfect choice for you! These bangs have a wispy and airy texture, making them an excellent match for wavy hair with long feathered layers.
@hairbyelvisp
Before diving into bangs, take a moment to think about your hair type. If you have medium-thickness straight long hair, opting for long bangs can be an exciting way to spice up your look.
@anastasiiia_korzhova
Can’t decide between classic curtain bangs and the lightweight feel of wispy bangs? Bottleneck bangs are a happy middle ground that will combine the perk of both styles: they flawlessly blend with the rest of the haircut and lend long hairstyles an airy feel.
@onur_camur
Unlock the power of long, straight bangs as your secret weapon to showcase your jawline with confidence. The feathered ends of these bangs bring the perfect amount of texture, while peek-a-boo highlights add a pop of color, making this stunning long hairstyle a true showstopper.
@tonytony1226
If you have long thick hair, blunt bangs are your go-to for emphasizing the fullness you crave. Pairing these gorgeous blunt bangs with messy waves is a match made in hair heaven.
@yukistylist
If you gravitate towards a minimal yet chic look, opt for barely-there subtle bangs. Such a hairstyle effortlessly adds volume and structure to your long hair while keeping your overall look intact.
@hairbyelvisp
A haircutting pro Joe Profita from Gumdrop Hairdressing in Montclair, New Jersey, used a series of dry cutting techniques to achieve these volumizing side-swept bangs. To nail that fresh-from-the-hair-salon look, grab a round brush and work your magic on your bangs.
@joeprofita
No need to worry if you have thin or fine hair because long layered hair with bangs is here to the rescue! Long layers add volume and body to your locks, giving the illusion of fuller hair. The arched, face-framing bangs, carefully designed to mirror the curves of your face, perfectly complement this style.
@nancymelendez_
When it comes to long hair with bangs, longer blended ones are the epitome of low commitment and seamless integration with the rest of your hair. This beautiful long hair with bangs by Libby George of Holiday Salon & Bathhouse is a case in point.
@lib_george
By integrating those “delicate face-framing pieces” and a textured fringe, Sal Salcedo from LA-based Nova Arts Salon managed to achieve lots of sexy volume in this long hair with bangs. The look has trendy wolf cut vibes too.
@salsalhair
If you’re looking for a more gentle rendition of the wolf hairstyle, you can choose a long shag that doesn’t feature as heavy bangs. The focal point of this look lies in the razor-cut textured bangs that complete the look perfectly.
@teagancousins.hair
Choosing long hair with bangs and subtle layers is a brilliant move for thin hair. Layers would bring a natural flow and texture to your hair, while a choppy fringe acts as a magical solution for those with larger foreheads, gracefully balancing your face shape.
@doseofdust
Ready for a drastic change? Go for a bold color and stylish side bangs in one move! The vibrant hue beautifully complements the soft, flowing curtain bangs, creating a stunning and effortlessly chic look.
@the.shag.daddy
If you have thick hair, feel free to go for a full straight fringe. It can complement a variety of face shapes, but it works particularly well on heart and oval face shapes, adding a stylish focal point while balancing the overall proportions.
@salt.strands
These flowing locks adorned with tousled bangs, create a mesmerizing combination. The effortless texture of the tousled bangs adds a carefree vibe to your look, while the long hair enhances its stunning elegance.
@tyler_the_hairstylist
Hair texture is no obstacle for bangs: even with curly hair, you can rock bangs effortlessly. Consider opting for short bangs that add a playful touch to your style. Enhance the texture with a texturizing spray for a perfect blend of defined curls and bangs.
@beautiful_by_natalie
This hairstyle is a perfect example of how adding long bangs with a center part can lighten the bulk of your long hair and create a pleasing face shape. These subtle side bangs are perfect if you prefer a low-maintenance look without the commitment of regular styling.
@doseofdust
When it comes to long fine hair, wispy and feathered bangs work wonders. These delicate bangs add a touch of softness and texture, beautifully complementing the fine strands.
@rcgimenes
If you are looking for bangs that will keep your eyes in the spotlight, there’s no better option than baby bangs. Ashley B Hair from Union Salon Covina paired “the cutest freakin’ bangs” with lots of long layers to soften their client’s facial features.
@ashleyb.hair
To make bangs work with bombshell blowout hair, start by using a texturizing spray to enhance the texture. Style the sides of the bangs away from the face and let the shortest face-framing layer go in the opposite direction, gently hugging your face.
@the.shag.daddy
The combination of loose waves and longer bangs offers a skillful framing effect for a square face shape, effectively harmonizing the width of your forehead with your jawline.
@midnight_carole
Enhance the charm of long hair with bangs by incorporating flipped tips. The result is a lively and dynamic look that exudes effortless elegance.
@endorphinlab.ro
With long locks and choppy layers flowing from top to bottom, this playful look radiates with bounce and movement. Ask your colorist for subtle warm highlights to accentuate the strands and give your skin tone that irresistible radiant glow.
@ryennesnow.hair
Achieve an eye-catching appearance with a smooth jellyfish cut that combines long hair and an impeccably sharp chin-length layer, perfectly accompanied by a blunt fringe. To master this style, use a frizz-taming conditioner to make sure your hair is free from flyaways.
