Ladies, we’ve all been there. You look in the mirror at your tired strands and think “Damn, I need to shake up my hairstyle somehow!” Luckily for us all, there is a simple way to give yourself a new style without having to get a completely new cut.
Wispy bangs aren’t a huge commitment but they will help you with a mini makeover. And, let’s be honest, sometimes, that’s all you need!
Despite what you may have heard, there are types of wispy bangs that suit pretty much any person out there. Whether you have strong, bold facial features or even an angelic appearance, you can certainly find a fringe that is complimentary. Here are some inspirational images to help you along the way.
Shaggy layers and wispy bangs are everything you need to look feminine and delicate. A perfect shape for finer hair, this hairstyle would draw attention to your eyes and suit most of the face shapes.

We know that a full fringe can look way too heavy and overwhelming. If you fancy cutting bangs, start with a finer, wispier layer of hair. Go for a more lightweight, textured shape for a modern, sassy look.
@leventkilic0
Long, outgrown-looking fringe is one of the sharpest trends of the current season. This type of bangs would require some effort to maintain, so be prepared for regular salon appointments as well as spending some time to style it every morning.
@brianaguilarhair
Subtle, see-through bangs look edgy and give you a serious 90s’ vibe. This side-swept fringe shape gives your face some framing without visually chopping off the top part of your face. If you have a round face and it puts you off from having a fringe, try out this look.
@yukistylist
One of the major problems that many women have when they first get bangs is the fact that they can seem limp. Blowdry with a round brush to gain the volume you need and the right shape in an instant. It is a classic, office-ready hairstyle.
@beautybysheri
Ask your stylist to blend your full fringe with the rest of the hair by adding some layers. As a result, you’ll get a modern textured shag cut boasting plenty of body and movement. Add some waves for a going out look.

Wispy bangs are a great way to elevate your hairstyle without making a drastic change. Stick with your regular cut leaving the rest of your hair long and add some face framing with textured curtain bangs. Use a round brush and a hairdryer to blow dry your hair. Add some waves with a wide curling tong.
@singi.vo
For a heart shaped face, you will want to go for a medium or even short haircut. Remember, you can pair the style with some cute bangs. A short, disconnected fringe with point cut ends can look simply wonderful.
@naturalbabe10.11_pro
Thinking of cutting your long thick hair in layers? Complete the haircut with layered wispy bangs. It will help create more volume on top and balance out the look. We can’t take our eyes away from this transformation!
@yukistylist
Lighter bangs are a good addition to the Rachel cut, which is currently making a banging comeback. Use a light-hold product and blow out your hair with a round brush to define the layers. Snazzy!
@ashleyb.hair
Textured wispy bangs soften facial features and make an accent on the eyes. This versatile style suits most hair types and face shapes, it’s also the best bet for thin hair. Wear it natural or add some textured waves for a night out.
@alisonallvess
The short wavy bob trend has been in for quite some time, and we love it because it builds a dynamic look. Try complementing it with light wispy bangs that are a bit shorter than usual for a funky finish. It takes expressive features to pull this one off!
@joeprofita
Long hair with bangs and face-framing layers is a style that will never go out of fashion. There’s just no knocking it, but what fringe works here? Long wispy bangs that will create a mysterious look and draw attention to the eyes is a great way to go!
@nunzio_nyc1
Thought extra long bangs had gone out of fashion? They are back! The sweeping soft fringe is so good for delicate face framing if you are a fan of those sassy updos. Feathered wispy bangs falling straight across the brow is pure delight!
@hairbyhatem
Heavily textured, these bangs are a fantastic detail accentuating the angled and softly rounded lob. Part your hair in the middle for a curtain bang look or sweep the fringe on one side. Use straighteners on the middle heat to create this immaculately sleek finish.
@alisonallvess
Fancy adopting a more feminine vibe? Try some wispy hair with light bangs that falls over the forehead. Getting a wispy fringe right depends entirely on your face shape and its length. For round and long faces, this kind of bangs can be utterly flattering.
@dougllas
Soft, deeply textured bangs work as the finest accent to this combination of rounded layers and dimensional caramel highlights. A cherry on top of your long luscious locks!
@buenrostros.beauty
There are different types of bangs you can actually pull off with a French bob. Adding wispy piecey bangs that cover your eyebrows means that you will have a striking look in no time. Still, remember that everything about the haircut has to work in sync, so let your stylist decide on the perfect bangs to complement the cut and your features.
@erickinvisible
This modern take on a classic long layered cut looks chic and flatters the round face shape in a perfect way. Apparently, blunt fringe doesn’t have to be heavy. Go for medium density for a slightly see-through, soft bangs look.
@nothingobvious
When you choose a short haircut, you might think that your bang styles are limited, but that’s not so. Wispy thin bangs flatter most of the short styles and soften the overall look. An added bonus – wispy bangs hairstyles, especially textured hair styles, are an easy way to take years off your face.
@teryn.tucker.hair
Long blonde hair is very in right now, and you can totally see why. To prevent the haircut from appearing too predictable, why not chop into the airy bangs and give it some edge? The style looks great with a slightly wavy texture.
@salsalhair
A bottleneck bob is one of the biggest trends of the current season. It features a bob cut hair with slightly flipping out curtain bangs. Combine this cut with a thin, wispy fringe to freshen up your look.
@moeko_furuya
Having thick hair doesn’t mean you need to opt for full bangs. Instead, consider removing the bulk with the help of heavy layering and adding wispy bangs to give a touch of lightness to the look.
@ryennesnow.hair
For many, the gentle wispy bangs are associated with an ultra-feminine look with cascading hair and flicks. But who told you that you can’t pair wispy bangs with a cut that has a cool punky vibe? If you have thin or fine hair, getting choppy tousled layers and bangs will be a great idea!
@yukistylist
Everything in this hairstyle is about the effortlessness and natural vibes. Style the fringe using a round brush and a hairdryer, then plait the rest of your hair while it’s slightly wet – this will help to create those tousled waves.
@hairbylizzzz
Here’s a lesson in how you can get wispy fringes ever-so-right. A casual style for straight hair is ideal for pretty much any scenario as long as you keep it slick and styled.
@gbhdesign
Feminine and beautiful, this look oozes the 90’s mood. The middle part and a wispy fringe will give your face some framing and emphasize your cheekbones. This look is perfect for oval and round faces.
@gracesonhair
Korean bangs are often a few textured strands of hair that fall over the forehead and give a see-through effect. If you like wispy haircuts and light barely-there bangs, it is definitely a style to try!
@kiyo_meynewyork
Whilst shoulder-length hair can seem boring, it’s a staple for many girls. Elevate your look with a round-shaped fringe. To style your bangs, use a large round brush and lift it up while drying. Finish with a cool air blast to keep the right shape.
@iandoescolor
Here’s a fringe that takes little to no maintenance, which may well work for you. All you need to do is blow-dry the hair over to make a stylish trendy appearance. Don’t fret if the bangs part a little — that’s all part of the style.
@michaeladbeauty
For those of you out there with thinner hair, the idea of a blunt fringe may be tempting. However, since you don’t have thick hair, you may struggle. Instead, a slightly parted thin and wispy fringe style will definitely work.
@niani_b
Be careful! Everything about this look can make you want to cut your hair like this. The combination of cool platinum tone, a shag haircut, and those A-line wispy bangs is totally dazzling.
@rachelwstylist
In modern hairstyles straight wispy bangs can be paired with wavy or curly hair, since blending textures, lengths and colors is very popular right now. When you opt for textured wavy hair as a key style, you should complete it with something different, likes these straight bangs, to make it really stand out.
@iamkingtee
The wispy bangs round face trend won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. So, it might be time to get on board. Pairing such a fringe with a graduated bob cut or even a lob will work wonders. A truly powerful fringe – you can add some feathers to feminize it.
@iam.nubian
Though eye-grazing fringe is not the most practical style of bangs, it looks so chic and flattering that you know it’s worth the bother. Wear it with a side part and C-curled ends to finish off the look. Also, use some hairspray to keep all the strands in place.
@karinnyzakan
Long wispy side bangs frame smaller features perfectly, and so they may be the way forward for you. The type of fringe pictured here is actually perfect for heart shaped faces as it creates a cute, pixie like feel. Remember to feather the hair too.
@iamjaelroumain
We are totally in love with this look. The cool combo of the heavy, blunt lines of the bob haircut and the airiness of the fringe is all about the contrast. Slightly shorter in the middle, those wispy bangs will make you look cute and innocent.
@hairbykysa
Wispy fringe and face-framing layers are certainly made to be worn together. Ask your stylist for a shag haircut to make an ultimate top look. Surprisingly, it won’t require too much effort to style, however, regular salon appointments are a must (please, never ever cut your own bangs!)
@circlesofhair
If you have a big forehead, you could find that these bangs will fit you the most. Sweeping downward, the fringe is messy and doesn’t part evenly, but it’s even prettier like this. That means you get cool 90s grunge aesthetic with ease.
@naturally_curla
Would you like to spice up your long hairstyle without making a dramatic change? Opt for soft bangs while keeping the same length. If even this subtle tweak is too risky for you, try a clip-in fringe – an easy, hassle-free option that doesn’t require any commitment.
@anastasia_grrr
As you’ve seen in the images above, wispy bangs are a seriously versatile trend that can suit every lady. It’s all about figuring out what works best for you. Once you’ve found the wispy, choppy bangs that flatter you, you’ll love them. We promise!
