    Default Uh....this gets better right???

    Hey y'all! So lately I've been noticing that I have a brand spanking new set of bangs. But not the cute kind, the "I had a stress shed" and now it's all coming back. Has anyone gone through this and does it eventually look better? In the meantime what can I do? I look stupid.

    I think you could gently pin them up with some bobby pins. It doesn't look bad imo. It'll grow out eventually and you'll be able to put it up with other hair.

    Yes. This. ^^ Just pin it back and forget about it. And be glad it grew back!

    It looks crazier when not oiled like it is there. Ugh I'm so annoyed with this. I think I preferred having very thin temple hair......

    I've been there. Yes, they're a bit of a pain, but better that than no regrowth after a shed!

    Bobby pins are one way to deal with them. You could also try sticking 'em down with some aloe vera gel. It does get better, but it takes time. Be grateful that your texture's in the 1 range; the wurlier/curlier you are, the more these little perishers want to stick out in all directions!

    Headbands or bobby pins, maybe? I've got unintentional bangs too, the longest bits are currently at chin length and I think the shortest are eye length. It's really annoying. Mine aren't long enough to bun, but still stay out of my face most of the time, unless I'm walking fast or running, or if it's windy outside. Then my entire face is hidden behind a curtain of wispy, crazy hair.

    Yes! It does get better! Bangs are very annoying but I second every one else's advice: bobby pins and headbands are your friend.

    Might I suggest an incredibly fashionable silk scarf? Looks awesome and keeps those little fly-aways in their place.

    They grow but it takes patience. Hang in there!

    I always have those bits, and more. From a child I have had wispy face framing hair. I think I just have a fast turnover of shed/regrowth lol.

    I'm glad they're growing back. Like others have said, you can pin it back, or maybe aloe gel to keep it in line with the rest of your hair? It doesn't look bad at all
