    You can tame your cow lick with hair gel or hairspray. After you apply the hair product, use a hair dryer to set it. If you don't want your ends to curl up, you can try to smooth them straight with a straightening iron.

    First, style them using 1 of the methods above. Then, carry a small or travel-sized comb with you throughout the day so that you can touch up your bangs, as necessary. Make sure that you always comb them in the same direction that you styled them.

    When I part my fringe, at the end, it curls up and goes in my eyes. Any tips?

    Cut your fringe a bit shorter, even if it's right at the tips where it curls too much. Or try using a mousse or gel to keep them in the right direction and out of your eyes.

    My fringe becomes wavy, even with straightening it. Any tips on keeping it straight?

    Try using a straightening gel or spray before ironing, and use hairspray after ironing to hold the style in place. Alternatively, you could just let your fringe stay naturally wavy. I'm sure it looks beautiful either way.

    One thing that can help is to hold your bangs with 2 bobby pins. After you sweep them to the side, add a little bit of hairspray and then add the bobby pins. Leave them on for about 10 minutes, then remove them. Your bangs should look flawless!
