Types of bangs
Fashion has stepped forward and touched all areas of beauty. Including bangs. If earlier only the straight look of the bangs was popular for a long time, now it can be given any look and shape that matches perfectly with a haircut or hairstyle.
So, what varieties exist:
- Straight bangs. You can call it a "classic". It is most popular with girls and women of all ages. This is the usual straight cut of hair, covering the forehead and reaching the level of the eyebrows or a few millimeters below their line. Straight bangs look very impressive with flowing long hair, and also give austerity with a gathered tail or bun.
- Slanting bangs cut to the left or right side. The length can be different, and it can take its origin from the middle of the forehead, the superciliary line or just belowher. This type of bangs is well suited for girls with a rectangular or square face type, as it will give it symmetry. It would be nice to hide a high forehead if you want to hide it. Perfectly complements almost any haircut with different hair lengths.

- Asymmetry. This type of bangs can be short (start from the middleforehead and evenly descend to the level below the eyes) - suitable for young ladies, elongated strands will create a feminine look, thinning will add extra volume to the hairstyle. Asymmetry resembles a slanting bang in that it also goes down to its side. There are also elements of round bangs in it. But the asymmetry is more accurate.
- Long bangs. If it complements a bob or shoulder-length hair, then it can easily be confused with a common mop of hair, since its length ends either at the level of the earlobe or at the level of the chin. Long bangs are suitable for long-haired girls with a square or rectangular face type. She will give the image of glamor and extravagance at the same time.
- Short bangs - a look that can create several images, depending on the owner's haircut. If a girl wears a neat square, then the bangs will give a light, laid-back look to a young French woman. Or, on the contrary, the owner of long hair and short bangs will look eccentric and somewhat defiant, which is why such bangs are often made by adherents of subcultures.
