BANGS FOR SQUARE FACE

Strong features and a sculpted jaw, the right bangs for a square face are the ones that soften the shape of the face. The ideal fringe is the long one that reaches the edges of the eyes, preferably combined with a layered cut. The result is soft, and incisive and removes harshness.

BANGS FOR THE TRIANGULAR FACE

The ideal fringe is long but irregular, possibly unkempt, to be worn sideways like a short tuft. In this way, the proportions of the face are more harmonious and the features less marked. On a triangular face where the upper part is more present than the lower one, however, short and geometric bangs also work.

 
 
 
 

BANGS FOR ROUND FACE

The right fringe for you is the long classic French one, not geometric or clear, layered but pulled with a side line, to optically lengthen the face. Avoid the classic and full fringe, because it would make your face even more rounded.

BANGS FOR THE HEART-SHAPED FACE

A broad forehead and sharp chin are the characteristics of the heart-shaped face which, for this very reason, needs full or loose side bangs. No to short or too full bangs that elongate the face, unless you want a slightly bad girl look. The key, in any case, is the irregularity of the fringe to enhance the very particular features of a heart-shaped face.
