Bangs!

In this weeks blog we continue our look at 2011 summer hair trends. We looked at the pixie cut last week and now its time to move onto our next trend: bangs.

While bangs to most of us are limited to being full and very square, there are actually many different types of bangs. Lets take a walk through the different types of bangs and who they suit.

Long & Full
Square face, Oval face

This version softens the face if tapered at the side  and can be wore a little wispy in the middle with heavier sides to accentuate the prettiest parts of the face.

Arching
Round face, Oval face

This must be done with caution on round faces. If the stylists isn't experienced enough, bangs can make a round face look rounder. But if done correctly, this style will flatter and soften the roundness.

Extra Long & Sweepy
Heart Shaped Face, most face shapes

Since heart shaped faces tend to be a bit top heavy, long sweeping bangs disguise a large forehead and draw attention to the eyes. Also this is a lovely way to frame the face. By varying the thickness and length of these bangs, you can lengthen, shape or even shorten a face. It is, in my opinion, the most versatile bang option. Its also a great way to grow out you other bang styles.

These are just a few suggestions for you to think about. Why not come in and see what our experts here at synergy have to say? You never know, they might be able to help you pick the perfect bangs style!
