This is a hard one to answer. I have bangs and I like them, but there is no hairstyle that fit every person, it all comes down to personal preference and style. I do think almost anyone can pull off some sort of bangs, but that do not mean it is the prettiest style on everyone.
Some people look better with bangs, some people look better without. I'm one of those people who definitely look better with bangs. They bring a certain balance to my face. I just look off whenever I grow them out.
I think bangs are beautiful in general. I have a longish face and a high forehead, and know bangs look good on me. But to have them, I'd have to cut into the thickness of my already very fine, thin hair. I can blow them dry, and spray them stiff- 20 minutes later, they are stringy and oily and hanging into my eyes.:rolleyes:. So, no more bangs for me. I like to comb my hair over to make fake side swept bangs when I do certain updos, though, and I think it looks pretty good.
I tried bangs once, and it looked decent but I looked like a little girl. Never again! But other people can pull them off. Just not me.
I have bangs and I love them. I have a long oval face with lots of forehead, and I think I look tons better with them. I have a looser wave pattern in the front, so cutting into that to make bangs helps my wavier hair stand out more, and the loose wave makes nice swooshy bangs. But no, I definitely don't think they're for everybody.
I think bangs generally look really cute on most people and I so wish I could pull them off too.
However, with my waves and a forehead cowlick my bangs are doomed to look funny from the start. I never seem to learn that though and every few years I cut in new bangs, thinking "itīll look better this time". Its a never-ending cycle. The last time I cut bangs was last autumn and here I am, growing them out yet again because- you got it: it looked insane this time around as well! It just wont lay nicely no matter what. I cut them to the top of my eyebrows and theyre now almost touching my upper lip when stretched so at least theyre growing fast... Finally I can make half ups without having to pin them up separately.
Never again. Never.again
I'm really on the fence about this. I'm growing my bangs out mostly out of curiosity because I never stray from bangs (also a good tracker of my overall progress).
Aside from this I generally like them, but mostly out of having grown up with them and such. As for who wears them, people are entitled to look how they please, I find with and without can create different looks for people and at the same time it depends how curly your hair is and how much maintenance one is willing to put into it.
I had blunt bangs, and I loved them. I ended up growing them out because I am lazy. I hate blowdrying, but I had to either blowdry or straighten my bangs to make them look nice.
I always have some sorta long side swept bangs going on. Whenever I get inspired to cut them straight across I never maintain them and they end up side swept again. I like bangs because they give more style to my hair. Also my forehead is above average, and I have a birthmark at my hairline which is visible if I pull all my hair back.
I think bangs can look really good or really bad depending how the person does it, but I guess the same goes for all hairstyles not just bangs.
I have blunt cut thick bangs, i wear them straight or partly in other side. I think bangs fits most, as there are very many styles of bangs: thin or thick, long or short, straight or oblique or bent...
