Can’t afford those monthly trips to the salon for a trim? Grace Tartaglia has two foolproof methods to get professional looking bangs yourself.
Wispy Bangs
Not every woman likes the look of straight, blunt bangs so follow this method for a wispy, feathery look.
Before you start make sure your hair is dry and clean. Kitchen scissors may work on paper but they’re not suited to trimming hair. Use a pair of manicure scissors or haircutting scissors from a local beauty supply store.
Twist your bangs around a few times and then snip into the ends.
Blunt Bangs
If straight, blunt bangs are more your style follow this method for evenly cut bangs.
Before you start make sure your hair is dry and clean. Kitchen scissors may work on paper but they’re not suited to trimming hair. Use a pair of manicure scissors or haircutting scissors from a local beauty supply store.
Divide your bangs into two sections. Pin the top section back off your face.
Comb the bottom section. Then using a comb as a guide start cutting from one side straight across your bangs to the middle. Repeat starting from the other side. Be sure not to cut above your eyebrows.
Unpin the second section of hair and repeat step 3 using the first section as a guideline. If the first section is too short the second section will hide it.
