- Thick, side-swept bangs – round-shaped face
Say hello to a thick haircut and don’t be hesitant that it would make your face look fuller. If you have a round face, then go for thick, side-swept bangs! They elongate your jawline and give extra definition to your cheeks.
- Straight-across heavy bangs – long-shaped face
Girls having a long-shaped face are quite lucky as it’s easy for them to pull off any kind of bangs. However, straight-across heavy bangs are a better option. These bangs make your face look balanced and draw attention to the eyes and center of the face.
- Wispy fringe bangs – heart-shaped face
Have a heart-shaped face? Then it’s time to get wispy fringe bangs. These bangs elongate from the forehead down and make the curvature at the tip of your chin prominent. Get this chic look that enhances the features of your face.
- Try anything! – oval-shaped face
One of the perks of having oval-shaped face is that you’ve got a perfect structure for bangs. You can experiment as many hairstyles as you want and you’ll still feel confident with all of them. Nevertheless, baby bangs are worth giving a chance. Create this rocker look that will make others envy you.
- Brow-grazing fringe bangs – square-shaped face
Thick cut with long bangs is perfect to soften your jawline that tends to be more pronounced on square-shaped faces. Use your fingers to give your hair a natural shape and once they are dried, iron the edges of the bangs so they become more manageable.
But before choosing the bangs style for yourself, first of all, you need to determine the shape of your face. And here’s how you can do it.
Determining the shape of your face
Look at yourself in the mirror and pay close attention to the jawline, face length, and hairline. Then see if your hairline starts four fingers away from your eyebrows. If yes, then awesome for pulling off bangs!
Check if your jawline is square, oval, rounded or diamond-shaped.
And the most important is the symmetry of your face. The best is oval since it opens a lot of hair styling opportunities.
