Hair Care
The Best Hairstyles with BangsIf you're thinking about getting bangs, here's the key: You have to find a hairstyle that'll flatter your face shape. Here's the info you need |
If you have an oval face... Characteristics: Same-width forehead and lower face, with longer sides
Best bangs for you: Any style
Oval-shapes can pretty much wear any type of fringe (lucky you) because it's the most balanced of the face shapes, says Thomas. If your face is more oblong, try a wide bang because it will give the eye area a sense of width.
Celeb to Copy: Jessica Biel
Pro Tip: "The biggest thing is to make sure all those little hairs around hairline are properly smoothed out," says Thomas. "There's nothing worse than smooth fringe and then having these ripples and bumps in the hairline. So make sure you fully blow dry your hair while it's still really wet to get rid of those." To keep your bangs extra-smooth, try Joico K-PAK Smoothing Balm, $21.99.

Taylor Swifts bangs are the best. They couldn't be more flattering. Why aren't her bangs included in this?

Thanks, I let my bang grow out, but I'm thinking about cutting one again.
