4 cute ways to grow out your bangs

 

With the temps getting hotter every day, bangs can easily become a sweaty mess, especially when you’re trying to grow them out. If you’re in that awkward middle stage when you’ve got longish bangs that are tough to make work, read on for our hair-savers that’ll keep ‘em outta your eyes and off your face.

 

1. Pin ‘em back

Brush your bangs back towards the back of your head. To add volume, push them forward so that the bangs pouf up a li’l. Secure with a fun feathery peacock hair clip.

2. Twist ‘em

Whether you like to part your hair in the middle or wear it to the side, a great way to keep annoying bangs out of your eyes is to twist ‘em: Pull your bangs up, give them a twist and pin to one or both sides. For an extra style boost, add a jeweled bobby pin. Glam!

3. Braid ‘em

Braided bangs will turn your tresses super chic instantly! Try a fancy fishtail braid or just loosely weave ‘em down the side. Secure with bitty bobby pins and voilà! For extra fanciness, add a braided headband that’s close to your hair color.

4. Hide ‘em under a cute headband

You picked just the right time to grow out your bangs: Headbands are the must-have accessories this season. Try a feathered one, or pick one with a sweet side bow. For your biggest bash, add this gorge sequin headband to your collection:

Hey babe,

You have to have a talk with your mom about this.  Ask her what you can do to prove that you're responsible enough to handle those things.  And whatever you do, don't talk back or have attitude when you're talking to her about this. Jordan S.

MOD-
ok so I'm 15 and going into 10th grade next year. I have a boyfriend and have since 7th grade, and I'm absolutely crazy about him Smile I'd really like to start dating, but my parents are really against it. I was asked to a picnic with his family once and my dad said absolutely not, so chaperones aren't the problem. Any ideas on how to get them to be ok with it?




Hey girl!

It's understandable that your parents have been against you dating. After all, you two were pretty young when you started dating. Your parents just want to protect you, but that can be hard for you to understand. But at this point you're 15--and growing up faster than your parents probably want to believe! I think you should ask your parents to talk about the situation. Explain to them that you've never done anything to break their trust. Ask them for the chance to prove that you can have a responsible relationship with your boyfriend and that you'd like to be able to do activities together (like the picnic.) And remember to stay calm and collected while you talk to them. Flipping out or yelling won't help get you what you want. Good luck!

I really love my blunt bangs, but a lot of my friends got them at the same time as me. Next year, I'm going into high school and I will be doing tons of sports and bangs aren't really ideal. I want to keep them, but I think I should grow them out. I also want to look different from my friends. I don't like to pull my bangs back in a headband because I have a really weird flat forehead. I have an oval shaped face, so do u know what bangs I should try?
Ps: my mom hates it when I have my bangs in my eyes. So growing them out is hard

 

Hey Girl!

If you want your bangs to look different, you can sweep them to one side, then if you decide to grow them out then won't be in your face. If you still want bangs, but you want them to not be the same as your friends, you can try side bangs. Also, for sports, clip them back on top of your head or braid them into a french braid. Hope this helps!

I really want to get rid of my bangs, but I don't look good without them. I've tried side bangs, but I'm not a huge fan of them. Do you have any other tips for hairstyles that might look good on me?

 

Hey girl, well its hard to tell without knowing what you look like, but maybe just let your bangs grow out and have a side part. Try wavy, thats always cute!

For some reason i cant change my profile picture! I can take off the one im using now but when i try to put up a different one it goes back to my panda! Is it the website or is it just my computer!? Thanks x100,000,000 <3 :-D



Hey girl,

I would give it a try on another computer.  If that doesn't work either, then either the file doesn't work, or it just needs some time to register on the website.

Play up your frock. Instead of pairing flats or pumps with that summer dress, try adding some edgy boots or sporty sneakers.
