For those who have a large forehead and want a cut that disguises it, the side bangs are the right choice. According to the hairstylist, to disguise it, it is necessary to make a side fringe at the height of the cheeks, that is, a longer fringe.

For those with a longer and longer face, it is also a good alternative. In this case, the bangs should be cut to the nose and worn on the side.

For a rounded face, the long side bangs look good and help disguise the lack of angles in the face. The combination of side bangs and long hair is perfect for those with a fuller face.

In addition to face shapes, we also have to think about the type of haircut. Side bangs suit almost everyone, the only exception is for cuts that are too short on the sides as more length is needed to support the side bangs.

It's nice to think about the cut as a whole and adapt it to the type of fringe you're going to use. Our tip is not just to cut the bangs, but to think about a complete cut to marry the bangs with the rest of the locks.

Long bangs are very versatile and combine with different styles, which is why this is one of the cuts most loved by celebrities. It's a good option for those who have the habit of pinning their hair, as it's easier to fix than a shorter fringe, for example.

Short

Short side bangs suit square and oval faces well. Not necessarily short bangs are used on short hair, in fact it suits all lengths.

To make the cut it is important that the hair is dry, because when wet it can become longer, but when it dries it ends up shrinking. This is a very important tip for not making a cut that is too short.

Defied / Ringed

The frayed side bangs bring the modernity you need to achieve a more laid-back look. It is worth remembering that the shredded hair is only suitable for straight hair.

In curly hair, the bangs can get excessive volume and not harmonize well with the rest of the cut. It is only indicated for curly hair if your goal is really volume.

For a while the razor cut was on the rise, but currently it is no longer as widely used. That's because the razor damages the end of the strand, leaving the hair weak and with double ends.

 

for round face

Side bangs are the type of bangs that best suit round face shapes. It ends up creating angles on the face that it naturally doesn't have and therefore disguises the roundness well.

It's nice that the bangs are cheek-length, so it's best used on long and medium hair. In short, it also works, but it does not hide the shape of the face so much.

in long hair

We can say that long hair is the preference among women and that is why it is at this length that the side bangs are most used. Long hair goes best with long bangs, but there are some variations. Check out some amazing models to get inspired:

in short hair

In short hair, the trend is for the bangs to be shorter as well. The short cut is already more modern by nature and people have finally understood that the length of the locks has no influence on a woman's femininity.

There are several cuts: chanel, beak chanel, peaked, pixie, among many others. It is essential to flat iron the fringe every time you wash it so that it molds to your face.

 

“Those who dream of side bangs need to keep in mind that it will always be necessary to finish. The dryer and flat iron are best friends to give a perfect fit. No washing the fringe and letting it dry on its own, as it can become spiked or knotted if it’s too short.”

in long bob

The long bob is all the rage right now and you've probably heard a lot about it. It is a cut that is usually made at shoulder length and has a longer fringe in the front.

How to Cut Side Stripe: Step by Step

We always recommend looking for a good professional to take care of the locks, but we also know that often due to lack of time and money we end up doing everything at home. The step by step that we are going to teach you to cut side bangs is very simple and if you follow them correctly, your hair will definitely look amazing.

The main tip is to use very, very sharp scissors. Blunt scissors can end up grinding your hair, causing split ends and spiky strands. If you always cut your locks at home, reserve scissors just for this purpose and do not cut other types of materials so as not to leave them blind. Let's go!

1. Start by untangling the wires carefully so as not to damage them. The cut must be done with dry hair.
2. If you already have bangs, separate them from the rest of your hair.
3. If you don't already have bangs, divide the front of your hair like a triangle. Use a comb handle to get it done.
4. The triangle should be a maximum of 5 centimeters so as not to make the fringe thick.
5. Let the strands fall to the side you intend to use the bangs.
6. With the fringe already separated, comb the strands to the reverse side of the fall of the fringe. That is, if you want to wear the bangs on the right side, comb everything to the left.
7. Hold the strands to the opposite side of the trim. The hair that will be cut should be below your fingers.
8. Stretch the strands and pass the scissors in a straight and firm way. This process will help your side bangs fall naturally.
9. Change the bangs to the side you want to wear. If you've done everything right, you'll notice that in the center of the face the strands are shorter and lengthen naturally when they meet the rest of the hair.
10. To make the cut more modern, place the bangs in front of the face and cut from top to bottom. The idea is to cut vertically so that the fit is even more natural. It is important to be careful because this cut will not change the length, it will only shape the ends.
