Trials and Struggles of Bangs

My first blog is going to be about my most frequently asked question......bangs. How do I know if they are right for me? What is the best way to style them? How do I fight this crazy part? Bangs are the best way to change your look without cutting length off your hair and changing your cut dramatically. It can change the appearance of your face shape and update your look! My main concern when cutting someones hair is cowlicks. Sometimes if they are too strong perhaps bangs isn't the right choice for you. Or perhaps we can modify how we cut them and style them so they are manageable in your daily life. The best and most efficient way to style a straight across bang or a side swept bang is with a simple hairdryer and flat paddle brush. The hair goes where the air from the dryer is directed. The hair must go forward first before going to the side. Position the hairdryer above your head with the nozzle facing forward. Brush most of your hair to the front so it is completely in your face. Blowdry to the front and both sides keeping the hair moving at all times. This eliminates the moisture and will keep the hair directed to the front fighting cowlicks. This is the most efficient way to dry your bangs. For more of a side swept look after you have removed the moisture use a round brush to act as a roller right on your forehead. This will give you a slight flip or curl! Questions are welcome! At the salon I do complimentary bang trims! Come in with dry hair and you can get a free bang trim! See you soon!
