What to Do with Bangs!

If you're growing out your bangs, in-between trims, didn't have time to wash your hair or just feel like changing it up, then it's hard to think of ways to get yours bangs off your face. Here are a few cute, easy ways to clear things up!

1. French-braid
Doing a side French braid that includes your bangs is cute and super-trendy. Just part your hair on the side, with you bangs swept on one side. Then, take your hair at the part and divide it into 3 sections. As you braid, take a little more hair from the outside everytime you bring it in. Finish with a clear elastic and tuck the end behind your ear! This may take some practice, try it with wet hair first until you get the hang of it.



2. Pony tail
This look is easy to pull off. Simply pull your hair back into a high ponytail. Comb your bangs straight back to blend into the rest of your hair, and use some light hairspray to keep them in place.



3. Parted back
Another easy one. Start by parting your hair down the middle. Next, part your bangs in the middle too and use a bobby pin to pin them back. Pull your hair over top to hide the pins!



4. Poufed back
You can pull your bangs back to make a mini-pouf. Just part your hair down the centre, pull your bangs straight up and back, then push them forward a little to create a pouf. Or include your bangs in a bigger pouf by following our tutorial.



5. Headband
Of course, you can always comb your bangs back and hide them with a thick headband! Check out our article for our picks of cute headbands.
