I have a square face but I look better with side bangs. Curtain bangs do not work with my facial features.

Cool to hear you use the term “fringe” as that term is always used here in Australia.

Another reason that the girl at 6:01 looks great with her new bangs, is that some sort of body waves have been added to her hair overall. The new look really makes her jump out at you with style and freshness!

I have a square jawline but my forehead is more oval. I had a wispy bang with a below-the- chin bob, but had been thinking about making the commitment to short hair for ease of upkeep. I LOVE IT ! The eye is drawn up and away from my jawline, the no-part style with crown and bangs blown forward is soft and flattering, (especially for a woman of 65 ). Credit my hairstylist- I told her I wanted to go short and she made suggestions for styles I might like. I love cosmetologists- the talented ones are true artists !❤

I find bangs to be super easy. I use a straight iron and takes me one swipe to get them to lay nice. Sometimes it may take 2 swipes but overall they are super easy. :-)

Now I understand why I decided not to do the bangs. You're right it's a dedication and it takes a lot of work And/or product Especially since I have curly hair. I can kinda do a side part and drape it across My hair it's kind of long but it's now becoming trimmed by nature because I have glasses that just kind of keep breaking the sides of my hair and I'm older so the hair is getting more fragile , recovering from hair loss from General anesthesia 6 months ago.

Love SJP's hair with the fringe, however, it's easy for anyone to add width when you're adding extensions. It's especially challenging to create a fringe on an oblong face when dealing with a receding hair line and hair thinning.

[@billiemunn]

Hmmm, so true. ☹️ I know from experience.

[@christamillet3648]

Yep. I have a long face and fine, straight hair, so there's no way I can get that ridiculous amount of width. Even SJP in that pic, I'm sure that width lasted only the duration of the photo shoot if they didn't mold it into a helmet with styling products. Long faces are the worst for haircuts!

I have almost grown my bangs out, and I feel liberated. I live near the Canadian border, and it's really windy here, and bangs were a constant bother when I had to go outside. Also, I have super fine, thin, aging hair, and my bangs were too wispy on my high forehead. Plus I have oily skin (even in my sixties) and my bangs were always showing that. I envy people who can wear them, but I'm happy to be done with them.

The cool thing about bangs is that you can wear your hair in a messy bun, wash your bangs and style them. You look ADORABLE in about 5 minutes. I have really been enjoying my bangs BECAUSE I also do messy buns daily! I don't want to talk you into it because it's a serious commitment and the grow out massively sucks but it can also massively amp up your look!

I'm trying to decide if I have an oblong or oval face, so I have to do more looking. I am older, so my face isn't the way it used to be. I also have very long hair and had baby bangs which I did myself for years, but grew them out recently. I feel like my face is looking even longer than it did and that the lack of bangs is making my face drag. I also have a long neck, so I'm thinking of getting my baby bangs back. It was just more comfortable to me. Great video :)

Great video! I have a small, oblong face and medium length layered hair.. and would really love curtain bangs. However, I also have a cowlick. Any general tips for cowlicks and bangs?!

[@michelebrotman5345]

I have a square face and always wear bangs. I like a heavier, side swept bang best although I wore them straight for a long time when younger They do hide forehead creases and balance out my face. You are correct about wind. It messes up your bang style and no amount of hair spray will keep them in place!

[@susanchaney5059]

This was so interesting and fun. After a year of not going to the salon I really need a haircut and style. My hair is one length down my back, kinda side bang after cutting them myself a few times and really messing them up. I love my stylist as a person but she just asks what I want--I need someone to suggest what I SHOULD have. So looking for someone new and it's not easy. To make matters worse I'm 71 and I think age changes your face shape so now I'm really confused. Love your videos.

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Hey Susan! I just had this discussion with another client as well. It's so important for a stylist to look at your face (and REALLY LOOK at your face), analyze and suggest cut and colour options that are going to be beautiful on you as an individual instead of "touch up roots, trim, ok!" There are the clients who just want the regular touch ups and then there are the clients that want to transform and as stylists it is important to suggest things that they may LOVE based on their face shape, hair texture and lifestyle. I feel like often we are just so busy that we just get to it. I have been guilty of this myself and I often try to remind myself to slow down and really look at the person. I am doing a series of live streams where I am taking client photos and analyzing face shape, hair texture, etc. and offering cut and colour suggestions. If you want to be featured in my live stream, send me a photo of your face with your hair pulled back and a photo of your hair in natural light to [e-mail] and I will be happy to include you.

My hair is one length - below the shoulder - and I've not colored it for 4 years so I'm naturally gray and really like it. I just don't know what to do as far as style and I think gray can look unkempt if it's not styled in a flattering way.

Gaby thank you so much for this video and the one where you show how to cut your own curtain fringe. My question is, how did you go from the curtain fringe to the one you have here? I’d like to get this one here since I can’t have a middle parting due to old androgenic alopecia that left a gap on my front, middle hairline many many years ago (thankfully I stopped my alopecia progressing but that gap will be there forever). Also… do you think a fringe like yours here will tend to part in the middle showing my bald spot? THANK U THANK U THANK U SO MUCH!! I love to finally have found a professional who ACTUALLY knows about the struggles of alopecia (and not just fine but normal hair).💛💛

Hi Gabi, I have a long-ish face, and like you always look better with some volume to the sides. I recently had my hair cut from quite long into a bob, which i absolutely love, and i was considering adding a fringe or more likely just shortening the layers around my face a little to give it a little more style and less weight at the front. However I also have quite a long nose and my one, long ago attempt at a fringe was not a good look for me. I wonder if you could give me any advise on this? Thank you for you videos, I have been binge watching since I found your channel recently and learnt so much that has helped me!

Hi there. I have a clavi cut and thinking about a long bob or even shorter. I have akinda curtainfringe but long.. I have the same features as you. Oblong. My cheekbones are good and prominent, my nose is prominent, too, people consider me as the apperance of a blonde native american ;) well is it okay to say blonde squaw. I d love to hear what she is recommending for you, as I have the same question in mind.. I don t want to look like face all closed up and I am ok with my higher forehead, but I want my cheekbones accentuated and not hidden. I wonder if a bottleneck fringe wouldbe a good ides. Do you have fine hair? Mine is fine and superstraighg. Iwave it with a curling iron.. Saying hi to you and hope we get an advise

[@alcookie]

I wanted bangs so I had it when i was 16. My face is slim and in oval shape so I noticed that I look prettier when i fully show my face instead of hiding. People usually have hair on face 1. On the sides to make face slimmer - I look too slim and it makes my face longer 2. bangs to make their face shorter - in my case bangs made my upper part of face look too short comparing to the lower part. 3. Bangs and hair on sides are the combo - is supposed to make face smaller in every way but it made my face look disproportionately. So my conclusion is i just look best when i dont try to hide something 😀
