How to cut your bangs at home

Cutting your bangs at home requires your own technique. There are many girls who have been cutting their own favorite bangs for years, some since they were teenagers. But for those who have never done it, it is best to follow a series of steps so that the result is a success.

Experts recommend going to the hairdresser to get the desired bangs, whether it is a baby bang, a straight one above the eyebrows or the curtain fringe, which is very fashionable and the favorite of French women. It is best to go to a trusted beauty salon for a good cut, but if you don't want to wait for an appointment with the hairdresser, there are several videos on the internet that show how to get bangs.

Before starting, professionals advise that you should use suitable scissors. No sewing nails or nails because they are not indicated for this use. The same goes for kitchen scissors. For those who dare to take the step, it is recommended that they use hairdressing scissors, as this will prevent irregular cuts and will allow the hair to stand out better.

Those who want to try simple bangs can follow the video that makeup artist Camila Bravo published a few years ago and it went viral. At that time, the young woman had all her hair the same length and she decided to get long bangs to frame her face. She did it by drawing an inverted triangle at the height of her hairline and then she wet it and rolled the lock, cutting it at the level of her mouth. She then shaped it with a brush and obtained very flattering bangs.

Those girls looking for straight bangs are already entering a slightly more complicated process. The ideal is to have dry hair because if you do it wet you will get the unpleasant surprise of seeing how it has shortened a few millimeters once dry. The hair should be dried downwards and with the help of the comb, mark a line over the eyebrow and begin cutting just below the comb, never above, and trim the ends so that it does not look so straight.

For those who already have straight bangs and want to avoid going to the hairdresser every two weeks, you can follow the video by TikToker Marilyn's Look, which shows how she retouches the ends in a very simple way.

There is also the option of getting curtain bangs that many celebrities wear, including Sara Carbonero. This cut is very easy to achieve. The first step is to draw an inverted triangle at the height of the hairline. As different professionals point out, the ideal size is about four fingers wide and the strand is rolled to cut it to the desired size. It is best to cut it a little longer and touch it up little by little, since this bang consists of leaving the sides longer so that they stylize the face.

On TikTok, some users have shown their ability to touch up their curtain bangs, first highlighting the central part, where the bangs are shorter, and then taking each side to the opposite side and parading it.
