She bangs, she bangs! Feel like getting a hairstyle transformation that’s not too drastic? Add fringe! Blunt, sideswept, baby, bubble, asymmetrical or choppy – there’s a fringe that’s built for every face shape and hair texture!
Bangs can take years of your face, hide blemishes and make your cut edgier or softer. Women’s love affair with bangs dates back in the early 1900’s. This simple part of a coif has become a trademark of some of the most amazing women that walked the face of the earth. Louise Brooks’ flapper bob with blunt bangs was an eponymous cut that was copied by many women as well as Bettie Page’s V-shaped bangs that’s curled inwards. Layered mid-forehead bangs made Audrey Hepburn’s gamine cut extra sharp.
Are you ready to rock a fringe? Check out the best fringe that’s right for you from our extensive list below!

Aside from giving hair good movement, layers add texture and volume. The flipped out ends and heavy side part of America Ferrera’s medium layered hairstyle gives it a sexy yet playful vibe. When the style is done right, your hair will fall perfectly without much effort on your part. If you have thick hair, don’t be afraid to ask your stylist to do some thinning out at the edges.

Tired of the usual side-swept bangs? Try flipping it for a natural windblown effect! Put the large round brush on top of your fringe, glide it towards the end then roll them up away from your face and blow dry. Do this a couple of times until you reach the desired fanned style. If you choose to use hairspray to set it, get the one that has a light hold so that the bangs will have a natural bouncy effect.

Isis King, the first trans woman to join America’s Next Top Model, showcases a stylish version of a wavy LoB (long bob). Soft layers are added to her coif to lessen the bulk waves bring. Without the layers, the hairstyle will have a ‘triangle effect’ (thin on top, wide at the bottom) due to the waves. Her bangs are also slightly dented to match the rest of her mane.

Roxanne Pallett definitely knows how to make the style work for her face’s shape! Blunt bangs makes the face appear wider, a big no-no for women with chubby faces. By leaving strands flow freely on the sides and by cutting the fringe just below the eyebrow, the effect is minimized. The attention is shifted to her eyes than her cheeks. Add some volume on top to elongate your face further and you are done!

Short blunt bob + round-shaped face? Not a good combo. But how come Jessica Lu’s version looks mighty fine? Let’s deconstruct. The sides are lightly tapered to make the crown more bulky thus making the face look more slender than chubby. To add more bulk on top, do a side part. Instead of cutting the bangs all the way across, opt for a choppy edged eye-grazing version. It eliminates the emphasis on the width of the face by shifting the focus on your eyes.

Choppy bangs, uneven pattern, tons of layers and texture constitute a shag. It’s a devil-may-care type of hairstyle but still possesses good aesthetics. If you want softer ends, you can ask your stylist to razor cut them. It will remove the unnecessary bulk from your hair and give the style good movement.

Miley Cyrus took the 2013 American Music Awards like a wrecking ball with her uber cool undercut and white Versace suit. We like ‚em both…..a lot! Her short coif is demurely styled this time (zero horns). To get a rockin’ lift on top, apply mousse before blow drying hair. From the front, roll the brush back towards the crown while lifting from the roots. Scrunch the top a little once done.

Don’t fret if you’ve got fine hair. Just add extensions and you’ll be just fine. Use jumbo hot rollers for this one. We like the low side bangs that partly cover Naya Rivera’s beautiful face. It definitely added allure to her look.

Liu Wen mirrors Bettie Page’s infamous pin up girl curly hairstyle with mid-forehead cut bangs.
How-to: apply mousse all over damp hair then allow hair to air-dry. Once dried, divide hair into 1” sections. Roll each section and clip them flat against your head using small aluminum duck bill clips. Remove clips after 45 minutes to an hour then brush the curls gently. Use a thin round brush when you blow dry your bangs. Curl the lower part of your bangs towards your forehead. Hold the style with some hairspray.
