It is always risky to cut your own hair.If you follow the right steps, you can achieve the look without spending a dime.You will need a comb, scissors and bravery.
Step 1: Attach your preferred part to your hair.
You should put your index finger on your part.The tip of your index finger is where you begin combing your hair.Make sure your hair is dry.When it is wet, wet hair can stretch by up to 45%.You might cut more than you intended if it is wet.
Step 2: The comb should be placed where the index finger was.
Take a diagonal line away from your part.This line should be kept straight.
Step 3: You should put the rest of your hair in a ponytail.
If your hair is shorter, you can clip it back from your face.The only hair you should be cutting is the hair in the part you sectioned off to be bangs.
Step 4: Between your middle and index fingers, hold your bangs.
Use your nondominant hand.The hair should be pulled taut and even.
Step 5: If you want your bangs to fall on your face, cut them at an angle.
A recommended angle is to cut them on a parallel line to the one that you created when you sectioned off your bangs.If you want a longer bang, cut them between the top of your lip and the tip of the nose.Try to cut them with a pair of scissors.
Step 6: Don't make them too short.
When cutting them, be conservative.Try them just a little bit shorter at first, and then gradually work up to the length and angle you want as you keep cutting.
Step 7: Cut vertically across the bottom of your bangs to achieve a different look.
The scissors should be kept open while you are cutting.Don't cut across your bangs.
Step 8: You should create your part.
An upside-down V shape is about an inch and a half away from your head.The center of your head is where the top of the triangle should be.The outer points are in line with the outer edge of your eyebrows.Any cut outside of bangs is too wide.Your hair needs to be dry while you cut it.When it looks normal, you want to cut your hair.You might be unhappy with how your hair looks on a normal day if it's curly on the day you cut it.
Step 9: The hair should be combed forward.
Take the rest of the hair out and put it in a ponytail.If you are going to cut the hair in the ponytail, make sure that it is bangs.
Step 10: You want your bangs to be the longest possible length.
If you want your bangs to blend into the rest of your hair, you should cut them long.You can cut more.
Step 11: Use a comb to hold your bangs against your face.
You want your bangs to lie against your face.How long do you want your bangs to be?You can always cut them shorter, but you can't add back hair that you cut off.
Step 12: You can hold your bangs between your fingers.
You can use your nondominant hand.The hair needs to be pulled taut and even.
Step 13: Cut in the middle.
Use your scissors to cut vertically up towards your fingers if you hold your bangs between your thumb and index finger.Go slowly and lightly with the scissors.The hair should have more layers.
Step 14: The scissors should be moved out toward each side of your face.
The scissors should be kept vertical, but moved horizontally.As you move toward your ears, cut less hair if you want your bangs to blend into the rest of your hair.
Step 15: Try not to cut more hair.
If you make a mistake and cut your bangs too short, don't try to fix them.Get the help of a professional hairdresser or wear your bangs pinned up if you want to leave them too short.
Step 16: Put your hair on the other side.
Put your hair on the other side if your bangs came out too short.The shorter bangs aren't visible anymore if you sweep the longer bangs over them.
Step 17: A hair accessory hides your bangs.
You can sweep your bangs back with a headband or a head scarf.You can twist them to the side using a barrette.
Step 18: Go to a hairdresser.
If you made your bangs crooked or in the wrong spot, you might want to go to a hairdresser.If your bangs are too short, talk to your hairdresser about adding extensions to make them look natural.
