Are you thinking of getting side bangs but not quite ready to take the plunge? Or maybe you have had side bangs before and miss the look but don't want to commit to cutting them again. Whatever the reason, we have a solution for you! Here's our guide on how to make it look like you have side bangs without actually cutting them.
Description
Side bangs are a popular hairstyle that can add dimension and frame your face. However, cutting bangs can be a big commitment, and it may not be for everyone. Luckily, there are ways to achieve the look of side bangs without actually cutting them. This is a great option for those who want to switch up their look without the commitment of a haircut.
How to
Step 1: Section Your Hair
Begin by sectioning your hair in a diagonal line from the top of one ear to the top of the other ear. Use a hair tie or clip to keep the rest of your hair out of the way.
Step 2: Create a Twist
Take the sectioned hair and twist it away from your face, creating a small bun. Pin the bun in place with bobby pins.
Step 3: Adjust the Length
Use a comb to adjust the length of your "bangs." You can make them longer or shorter depending on your preference. Once you have the desired length, use hairspray to hold the twist in place.
Step 4: Style Your Hair
Now that you have your faux side bangs, you can style the rest of your hair as usual. You can leave it down or put it up in a ponytail or bun.
