Tired of your look? Why not opt for a new hairstyle like add some bangs. Bangs or fringe are known to subtract a few years from your age 'coz it will give you a younger look effect if done right. It will also soften your look or the reverse. Bangs cut below the eyebrows tend to give a mysterious looking effect and fringe cut above the eyebrows tend to give you a strong look. You may choose to cut it straight or blunt. I don't recommend you to cut your bangs at home. I suggest that you consult your hairstylist to give you an advice before you dive in this hairstyle. Your hair stylist knew better your type of hair and what are the pros and cons of donning bangs. I observed that those who have naturally straight hairs are the easiest to have some bangs. What's difficult to maintain are those who have wavy and thick hair texture. Natural curly hairs are not suitable for bangs unless it's chemically straightened. In my case, I fall on the second hair type which is naturally wavy and thick. Mine did not undergo chemical straightening ever since I went all platinum blonde last year 2015. So, basically it's all natural hair growth and back to my naturally wavy hair.
