The fringe is trendy and it intends to stay that way! If we've seen them everywhere since the fall, we'll definitely see them again in 2022. But how do you choose? There is a wide variety. It's up to you to make your choice according to your desires and the shape of your face. If you want to take the plunge, here is a handy little guide to bangs.
Why get bangs?
For a retro side, thick, straight bangs are ideal, while long, sweeping bangs give a more rock and rebellious side. For a slightly more romantic and soft look, the long fringe, separated in two in the middle will be more suitable. However, it is important to keep in mind that the bangs modify the volumes and features of the face, so you should not jump on just any haircut!
The fringe can also be a good solution to hide those few small flaws in your face that make you complex. Whether it's to hide wrinkles, eyebrows or a forehead that's a little too big for your taste, bangs are your best ally!
In short, whether it's for a desire to change your style, a desire to change your face or even to hide certain small flaws, the fringe is a haircut that has many qualities, provided you choose the one that will adapt best to the morphology of your face.
What bangs for an elongated face?
Go for straight, long enough bangs, at least up to the eyebrows to shorten the face. So avoid the fringe on the side, which will not hide the entire length of the face and therefore risks unbalancing it.
What bangs for a small face?
Small faces will get along wonderfully with bangs swept to the side, to give a bit of softness.
What bangs for a round face?
Avoid straight bangs, which will tend to flatten the face. Opt especially for a very short and tapered fringe.
What bangs for a square face?
Square faces should avoid straight bangs, which will tend to harden and accentuate the features. In this case, opt especially for a longer fringe on both outer sides, or for a wick on the side. It softens the face and can even give a younger look.
How to maintain your bangs?
Before you start, it is important to keep in mind that bangs require a little maintenance.
