Q&A for How to Cut Your Own Bangs

The hair style you choose is entirely up to you! If you think it will look good on your face, go for it. You may want to opt for bangs if you want to make your forehead look smaller or hide some blemishes on your skin. Many people will say that bangs work best with square or oblong face types, but it's totally fine to try them out if you think it'll look good!

It doesn't have to be! Just work slowly and carefully, especially if this is your first time cutting hair.

To create a soft layered bang that feathers back you will need to cut hair at a high, 90 degree angle. Section off an area as directed in the section about side swept bangs above, then lift hair up 90 degrees from the head and pull it across the par to the opposite side. Cut a guide, being sure to start a little longer than you think you'll want it. Pull the rest of the bang section up and over to meet this line. This will create a soft layered bang that angles down in the front. To feather, pull to the opposite side that you intend to feather and dry ends flipped up. When you brush it back it will create feathering.

You can use a flat iron to straight out your bangs whenever you're styling your hair. They should stay straight all day after that!

Fortunately the hair grows back and it'll grow quickly too. In the meantime, just enjoy the look as best you can. It is not the end of the world, some people have no hair.

Use an eyebrow razor for that asian anime look. It adds nice texture and they are cheap to buy.

You can cut the bangs shorter to even them out, or go to a hairstylist to get them fixed. If they're too short, you'll just have to wait for them to grow out. You can try to enjoy them as they are in the meantime or pin them back/wear a headband.

You could either use bobby pins to secure your bangs into your ponytail, or you could completely cover them with a wide headband.

Yes, you would just have to change your part to a deep side part and possibly pin back a small portion of your bangs.

Wear a visor. Or do what I did: when cutting the side close to that side's eye, close it and keep the other open, then repeat for the other side.

Bangs can look good on anyone if well done. if you want to get rid of your bangs, let them grow and pin them to the sides of your face.

You're going to have to train your hair to not follow the part you've been having. Usually wetting the hair and using gel/mousse/hairspray to keep it in it's new place works.

If your bangs are thick, there may be too much hair, and if they’re wide, there may be too big a section of hair, so maybe try letting some of it grow out and if you still want bangs cut a smaller section, leaving out a bit from the top and sides.

Your skin colour doesn’t matter. It is actually your face shape that counts.
