For many women, the bangs look like some kind of hair component, in which there is nothing special. Until she appears with them. Actually, the hair trimmed in the frontal part of the head is a very powerful change of image, a very bright accent, which requires careful study.
In this article we will try to answer the eternal female question: to cut bangs or not? And also consider the main variations and opinions of stylists on this subject.
Introduction
Conventionally, all women in the world can be divided into two large groups - those who wear bangs and face all the attendant problems, and those who do not have such an “accessory”. Girls from the first category are pretty tormented, since bangs regularly require additional care. But they have long been accustomed to all costs, so they take them for granted. If a woman doesn’t and didn’t have a bang, she may well think about the possibility of cutting her off, but let’s say right away that not all are solved. Cutting the bangs or not is not an easy question, and the answer depends on an uncountable set of factors. This is the shape of the face, and skin color, and hair type, and taste, and fashion, and mood ... In a word, bangs are a unique image element, the presence of which is determined by the desire of the hostess.
Who goes bangs?
The second question, to which there is no single answer. The thing is that the bangs are not a pink color, not a fitted coat. Therefore, it cannot be said unequivocally that such an element of the image will suit such and such, but to others it is categorically contraindicated. There are many varieties of bangs, and they were created in order to please everyone. And now we will consider the main variations of this notorious element of the image and in parallel determine who and what suits.
Straight bang
The oldest and most widespread, even so far, option that many girls dream about. The benefits of straight bangs are obvious:
- It can be cut in 5 minutes, while the image changes dramatically. The hair remains long, but your appearance takes on a completely different character.
- It looks graphic, gives the image notes of rigor and conciseness.
- A very stylish solution - a direct bang will be in harmony with the business, and with the glamorous, and with the rock style.
If you are thinking about a straight bang - to cut or not, then first pay attention to the shape of your face. If it is oval, elongated or triangular, then you can safely go to a beauty salon. But if the face is round or square, alas, this option was not prepared for you. The next factor worth considering is the type of hair. If they are thin, curly, oily or too dry, direct bangs are also not recommended for you. You just can't put it down.
Asymmetric option
Why do women who have already reached Balzac's age cut their bangs? The fact is that after 45, the face gradually begins to lose its shape, becomes more angular, and sometimes even disproportionate. When a certain asymmetric element is present in the forehead, it distracts attention and makes facial features softer, and defects less noticeable. A bang of this type will also be relevant among those young girls whose face has a round or square shape. It will smooth out sharp corners and make the appearance softer and more pretty.
Slanting bangs
If you have been seriously and long thinking about the question of whether to cut a bang, then we recommend starting not with the extreme options that were described above, but with a softer one. Many people know how the slanting fringe looks and what functions it performs. In short, then just the locks on the forehead are cut to the level of the nose, carefully milled and combed to one side. The result is not graphic bangs, but some kind of locks that partially cover the face and make the image more gentle and romantic. The delights of such a hairstyle are obvious. Even to owners of a perfect face shape, they will help to renew the image. If the shape of the cheekbones is square, then you can easily smooth out this defect. But the most important thing is that the oblique bangs will help you get used to the hair that falls on your face, will teach you to follow and style it, and you will be able to understand whether you should pull yourself into this "bondage".
In terms of fashion
Most of the stylists of our world are confident that at present one of the remnants of the past is considered to be a bang. Cut or not - a question for them, which has a clear negative answer. In fashion, naturalness, it should be visible in everything. Nude makeup, brown hair, and at the same time they should look like you, as a medieval princess, wore them under your crown and grow all your life. Of course, graphic and asymmetric bangs here will be completely superfluous. Nevertheless, stylists argue that women have faces that simply need additional hair styling. Therefore, most often the choice is made in favor of oblique and soft strands - they smooth out sharp outlines and make the image feminine and light. But it happens the other way around - if the face is too long, save the situation by allowing a straight bang, which slightly covers the eyebrows. This is a classic, and not a single mod will fight it.
If you are confident in your abilities
Many girls prefer to take care of themselves, as they say, at home - that is, they do everything themselves, including cutting their hair. We will talk about how correct this is from a mental point of view a little later, but for now some tips for those who decide to change their image with their own hands. Most often, logical questions arise:
- How does a bangs haircut start?
- How to cut in front of a mirror?
- Do I need thinning?
Let's put it all on the shelves:
- First, moisten the part of the hair that you are going to transform a little.
- Determine the shape of the bangs. If it is straight, then separate the isosceles triangle from the crown and comb it onto the face. If the bangs are oblique, then separate the triangle with a slight shift in the direction where you parted.
- Start cutting a straight bang by plotting a line at mid-pupil level. Keep in mind that after drying and styling, the hair will rise slightly.
- For oblique bangs, the longest should be a strand at the level of the earlobe, and the shortest can be made at the level of the middle of the nose.
- Both bangs need careful thinning.
- Asymmetric option is recommended to be done only by a specialist.
Recall the omens of old
For our ancestors, hair was not just a collection of keratinized cells from which you can build any hairstyle. It was a connection with the cosmos, a magical element of the image, so women did not cut their hair. Now everything has changed, but two signs have migrated in our time and do not give rest to modern young ladies:
- Can a pregnant woman bang her hair? It is believed that if you cut your hair while carrying a child, you can take life force from him. Many adhere to this belief and for 9 months disappear from the radars of beauty salons. Well, we recommend that you do not stop taking care of yourself even on demolitions, trimming the ends of the curls and the edge of the bangs if you wear it. But here it is still not worthwhile to radically change your image during pregnancy.
- Why not bang yourself? It is believed that by cutting your own hair, you lose good luck and vitality. If you absolutely do not believe in this sign, then just start changing your image in a good mood.
We hope our tips will help you make a difficult choice and become even more beautiful.
