The first rule of having amazing bangs: DO NOT LET THEM AIR DRY. Start the styling process right after you get out of the shower. If you let your bangs dry naturally, they have an annoying tendency to go haywire. To train your bangs according to the style you want, blow dry them.

While blow-drying your bangs, use a small round brush to add extra volume. This keeps them from laying flat on your forehead and gives them a livelier look. Hold the hairdryer facing down over your head and brush your bangs to your desired direction.

Finally, keep your bangs in place by using an anti-humidity hairspray. This will help prevent frizz and separation caused by humidity. Don't use too much, though — it could cause your hair to clump together.

If your bangs are extra frizzy, you may smooth them with a small flat iron. Opt for a slimmer and smaller flat iron so that you can go all the way up to the roots.

Another thing to take note of is how often you wash your hair. The thing is, bangs get greasy faster than the rest of your hair. If you don't wash them every day, there's a tendency that they will clump, separate, and lay flat. You may opt to wash your bangs daily or use dry shampoo to keep them looking fresh.
