There’s a huge debate when it comes to bangs. First, there’s the question of whether or not you should get them in the first place. Then you have to choose between curtain or blunt, baby or piecey. All of this decision making can drive you a bit nuts. We have a real simple way of dealing with the madness, though. Simply opt for side bangs.
Now you may think that’s a pretty narrow category. Think again. There’s actually still a lot of variety. You can barely cover your forehead or play a little peekaboo. You can transform a few shorter layers into sideswept fringe. Heck, you can even sport bangs off to one side while rocking a pixie.
If you’ve been going back and forth regarding the dilemma, you can always go the faux route. Just tuck some strands behind one ear or pull a few loose from a super slick ponytail. After experimenting, you may just go ahead and fully commit. Still worried you’ll eventually change your mind? No problem. Check out these foolproof ways to grow out your bangs. Although we’re pretty sure you won’t have any regrets.
