Straight bangs
A classic long bob with straight-across bangs adds sophistication and convenience to any hairstyle. Consider the time and effort required for styling straight bangs before deciding on this look. Alternatively, face-framing wisps can be added to create volume and texture. Remember that face-framing cracks may become oily more quickly, but dry shampoo can help refresh them.
Layered bangs
For those not ready for full bangs, a layered shag haircut with thick curtain bangs is a great option. This style works for all hair types and ages. To add dimension, consider using texturizing spray. Long layered charges are timeless and suit women with wavy or textured hair. Use a leave-in conditioner and hair oil to maintain this look to avoid breakage.
Arched bangs
Pinup-inspired bangs with wispy layers create a signature arch that complements all face shapes and hair textures. Experiment with side-swept or center-parted charges for an effortless style. Use a dry shampoo wipe to eliminate oils and maintain healthy-looking bangs. If you have a cowlick, try using a reusable mascara wand to smooth it out while blow drying.
Bettie bangs
Bettie bangs, made famous by pinup model Bettie Page, feature U-shaped cracks that bring a flirty flair to thick hair. For maximum success, ensure the cracks extend slightly beyond the forehead. Celebrities like Bella Hadid and Zooey Deschanel rock this look. To achieve this style, use Biolage’s Ultra Hydra Source Leave-In Cream on damp hair and follow the cutting instructions for U-shaped bangs.
