Sometimes short hair seems too short for comfort, and long hair seems like too much of a hassle to manage daily. And that is why shoulder-level hair is the best hair length. If you want to jump on this bandwagon, we suggest starting with medium-length hairstyles with bangs. Hair that reaches the shoulder level or 3-4 inches below is called medium-range hair. Medium-length hair allows you to change your look and accentuate your facial features with layers, feathered ends, or wispy tips. But adding in bangs transforms your look completely. Bangs can take you from plain Jane to sexy Norah in a matter of minutes. Keep reading to learn how to select the best bangs for your face shape. Then, scroll down for some creative suggestions to style your medium-length hair with bangs.

protip_icon Before You Get Started
  • Get your bangs trimmed every two to three weeks to maintain their length and fresh look.
  • Messy looks need to look voluminous. So, if you have thin or fine hair, you can apply some dry shampoo to your scalp before doing these hairstyles.
  • Doing your parting on the same side of your scalp every time may weaken the roots in the parted section of the hair. Therefore, make sure to keep switching the sides of side-swept bangs regularly.

How To Choose Bangs According To The Shape Of Your Face

  • Round Face

If your face is circular and the fullest parts of your face are the cheeks, you have a round face. Most women with a round face, have small faces because the width of their cheeks is longer than the length of their face. If you have a round face, an arching straight full fringe that falls just below the eyebrows adds softness and complements the face structure. Deep side bangs also work.

Celebrity hair expert and beauty entrepreneur Richard Morrill suggests, “Add a little texture to the bang via thinning shears or a little pomade.”

  • Square Face

If your jawline and cheekbones are equal in width while your forehead is narrow, you have a square face. Your jawline will be box-ish. The width and length of your face are equal.

Keep your bangs straight and just below the eyebrows. Straight bangs that are feathered in the center create an even look and accentuate your face. Find a stylist that you can book every 3 weeks to keep them perfect.

  • Diamond Face

If your jawline is pointy, you have a diamond face. Your cheeks are the fullest part of your face while your forehead and jawline are narrow and almost similar in width. Long side-swept bangs go well with this face shape.

Richard Morrill adds “If you have a forward growing hair pattern use a little spray underneath the bang to elevate it away from your eyes.”

  • Oval Face

This face shape is almost egg-like. The face is long, but the cheeks are the widest parts. The jawline and forehead are the narrowest parts of the face. All bangs look great on an oval face.

  • Heart-Shaped Face

Though the forehead is the fullest part of this face shape, it narrows towards the top. This face shape also gradually tapers as it reaches the chin. Arched side-swept bangs that are longer at the sides look amazing on heart-shaped faces.

  • Inverted Triangle Face

The forehead is the widest part of this face shape. Side-swept bangs, side bangs, feathered front bangs, and deep side-swept bangs look great on this face shape. Blunt or baby bangs might not go well with it. Especially the ones that have a widow’s peak or a dominant cowlick.

  • Triangle Face

The jawline is the widest part of this face shape while the forehead narrows near the hairline. You need to focus on softening the jawline and drawing attention to the forehead. Layered bobs, fringed bangs, choppy layers, and long hair with layers beginning at the temples are the most flattering styles. The whole point is to make your cheeks and forehead appear wider to make your facial structure look more balanced.

protip_icon Trivia
Victoria Beckam, Tyra Banks, Jenna Fischer, Minnie Driver, Geena Davis, Billie Piper, Bette Midler, and Kathy Ireland are some famous personalities with triangle-shaped faces.
  • Long Face

The length of this face shape is greater than its width, which means that the jaw and the forehead are long. If you have a long face, short bangs are a no-no as they will draw attention to your forehead. Try long bangs with either a full center or swept to one side, and we promise you will look amazing.

“Try not to wear your bangs puffy with a longer face. Remember you’re trying to minimize the length of your face,” Richard Morrill advises.

  • Large Forehead

If you have a high forehead, full side-swept bangs are the way to go. Let the bangs start near your eyebrows and taper as they reach the sides of your face. To finish the look, put a little hairspray on your finger tips and glide the hair over your eye socket to help the hair stay styled back.

  • Short Forehead

If you have a short forehead, consider getting a sloped fringe that is longer on one side. It is a deeply swept side fringe. Make sure to keep a minimal amount of bangs, maybe of ½ inch width (12mm).

Having bangs is not a joke. You have to take the commitment seriously if you want them looking lively at all times. Here are a few tips to get your fringe game on.

How To Decide If You Want To Get Bangs

If you’re in two minds about getting bangs, here are a few tips to help you:

  • You’ll need to style your bangs every morning. Bangs that are not styled right can look bad.
  • They need to be trimmed every 2-3 weeks.
  • Be aware of your hair texture as it will help you understand what kind of bangs you want.
  • You will need to wash your bangs every alternate day.

Now that you’re ready to commit to bangs, here are the different types you can choose from.

Different Types Of Bangs

  • Blunt Bangs

These are thick front bangs that are cut in one length. They look great on oval and oblong faces. The best length for these bangs is just grazing the eyebrows.

You need to keep in mind that blunt bangs are high maintenance. Richard Morrill, a cosmetologist who started the first line of biodegradable hair care products, offers his expert tip on this, “Blow dry straight down, only turn the end with a round brush when you need your bangs re-cut. Looks more modern without the bend.”

  • Tapered Bangs

These are bangs that vary in length. If you have front bangs, they can be short at the center and gradually increase in length on the sides. They can also be choppy, like a mix of short and long.

protip_icon Quick Tip
Tapered bangs suit square or oblong face shapes as the tapered ends create angles that soften your jawline and bring attention to your eyes.
  • Side-Swept Bangs

Side-swept bangs are bangs that are all swept to one side. These bangs look amazing with short curly hair. If you are considering a pixie haircut, try this hairstyle. If you have a round or heart-shaped face, this is the style for you.

  • Side Bangs

These are bangs that loosely drop to the sides. They help in making a face appear slim. If you have a round face, these are a good option for you. Side bangs are also great plan B, if you don’t like straight across bangs.

While not many women go for curly bangs, they are incredible and the best way to show off your curls. If you have a broad forehead or a round face, consider these bangs. The coils make your face look slim and conceal the complete length of your forehead. These bangs look great on square faces as well.

For all the women out there who love to do things on their own, here are a few methods to cut your own bangs. The first time might not deliver the best results, but remember – practice makes perfect.

How To Cut Your Bangs

Before we start, here’s a helpful tip – never cut bangs when your hair is wet. Wet hair is longer than dry hair. So, when you cut your hair wet, you might miscalculate the length and end up with shorter bangs. Therefore, cut your bangs when your hair is dry and then wet it before you style it. Make sure you keep your eyebrows relaxed to calculate the length correctly.

The primary difference between cutting side and front bangs is the angle at which you cut your hair and how you shape your hair.

  • Bangs Cut At An Angle

Comb the front part of your hair outwards and cut it diagonally from inside to the outside. This will bevel the ends as well.

  • Bangs Cut Straight

This is pretty simple. Comb your hair and then cut it straight across.

There are quite a few ways that you can cut your bangs like a pro. Here are a few of them!

How To Cut Your Bangs

Things You Will Need

  • A rat tail comb
  • A pair of hair cutting scissors
  • Clips
  • Elastic bands

For Straight Bangs

If you want a full center bang, pick up a triangular section from the front portion of your hair using a rat tail comb. Cut it evenly. If you want them tapered, cut the section just below your eyebrows and increase the length as you reach your ears. If you have a larger head don’t section too far back towards the crown. You can always add more.

For Side Bangs

The best way to create a side parting is to make sure its aligned with your eyebrow. That way, when you cut your hair, it is adequately cut and not messy and all over the place. Once you’ve created the parting, begin cutting the rest of the fringe a little longer, giving it a tapered look.

If you don’t want to cut your lovely locks but still want to try bangs, don’t worry! You have two good options.

Bang Extensions

With the entrance of hair extensions comes the entry of the bang extensions. These are basically clip-on bangs.

All you have to do is simply clip the bang extensions into your hair.

Richard Morrill adds, “A helpful tip is to spray or tease the section you’re going to clip the bang to. Hate to see your bangs fall out during dinner.”

Faux Bangs

Don’t feel like cutting your hair but want bangs?

We have got the perfect solution for you! You can use extensions or merely try faux bangs.

  • You’ll need elastic bands, pins or clips, and (depending on how you want the bangs to look) a curler.
  • First, tie your hair in a high ponytail.
  • Pull the top section of the ponytail (one-third of the ponytail that will make the bangs) towards your forehead and use some pins to fix it in position. This is the point in the style where you can make your bangs long or shorter.
  • Roll the remainder of the ponytail into a messy or sleek bun.
  • Fluff up your front hair to give it the perfect faux bang look.

Lucy, a lifestyle and beauty YouTuber, records a tutorial on cutting bangs on herself. She highlights the initial crucial step, saying, “First off, I’m going to separate my hair into a good, perfect center parting here, and then I am going to separate out a quite small triangle in the front (i).”

The key to having good bangs is to take good care of them. Yes, just like the rest of your hair, your bangs need to be maintained. Here are the best tips to maintain your bangs so they look flawless.

How To Maintain Bangs

  • Wash your bangs regularly. You don’t have to wash your entire hair when doing so. Your bangs can collect dirt and become greasy faster than the rest of your hair. Wash them every alternate day with a shampoo that works well for your hair.
  • Trim your bangs regularly to keep them looking great.
  • Watch your bangs when you moisturize your face. Make sure you don’t get any cream on your hair. The ingredients you use to moisturize your face might not be suitable for your hair. They can also make your bangs get greasy faster.
  • Always remember that the best bangs in town start with them completely wet.

Now that you know how to choose, cut, and maintain your bangs, here are 41 wonderful medium-length hairstyles with bangs. Read on to pick your favorites!
