You should get BLUNT BANGS if you have THESE features (It's MORE than just about big forehead!)

[@lindaroy4061]

You are answering every question I’ve ever had about why certain styles looks good or bad on me or others. My mind is blown. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

[@stylerefinement]

You are so welcome! I'm doing a video this week on bangs again because I feel like I didn't fully explain the features that makes you suitable for bangs (and also different styles of bangs), so stay tuned for it! :)

[@samelis6546]

Omg the whole thirds of a face length thing is so enlightening. I couldn't understand why I looked so good with blunt bangs even though I have a round face. Everytime I get blunt bangs, I'd surprised myself because I was so into the idea that round face can't have blunt bangs or full bangs at all. It's dumb, I know, but we're somewhat indoctrinated to those usual hard fast rules that we forget that everyone is original and a spectrum of something. Thank you for this video!

[@stylerefinement]

I'm glad you found the video helpful!

[@superk5]

Dakota J. looks so pretty with bangs, completely different vibe. Actually all your examples look better with bangs! Maybe young Carla Gugino looked pretty without bangs despite the fact that she's got a open forehead with square hairline, but she had an overall voluptuous baby face

[@stylerefinement]

I think Carla Gugino looks great with or without bangs!! Like you said she has a voluptuous face so when she wears bangs I think it makes her look a bit younger since our eyes are more drawn to her cheeks area, and when she doesn’t have bangs it elongates her face more and makes her look more elegant, even though our eyes are slightly drawn to her forehead a bit more ☺️ Such a good example that it all depends on our preference and the image that we want to portray! ❤️

[@TaLuLuDAY]

Im currently surfing through your videos one by one and WOW! I learned so so muchhh! I have slightly wide eyebrows with slightly shorter chin. I always wondered why I look good with medium-thin sideswept bangs that partially cover my brows, but look suffocating with straight bangs (made my face too short) and look grumpy with long side bang (now you can see half of my wide eyebrows). 😂 gotta try to use makeup to draw them closer too!

[@stylerefinement]

I'm glad you found the tips helpful! ❤

[@ekaterinal8631]

Your videos are so good 😱 you have such an eye for these things, I’m currently binging all the knowledge

[@stylerefinement]

Thank you!! I’m happy you liked them! 😝

[@vtcs1963]

Me too!!

[@vtcs1963]

All my life I was told I have a round face - but I look much better with bangs and always wear them. So now I pulled out an actual ruler and guess what - I have a big forehead!! And I have that smallest area between my eyes and mouth that you said makes us look youthful - so it’s not just my good skin but my actual facial proportions. OMG. TIL!! Thanks Jenn!!

[@stylerefinement]

@@vtcs1963 you are so welcome! I’m glad you found the content helpful in understanding your proportions and style! 😃❤️

[@madeinussr7551]

My forehead is short and fave is square and i look great with blunt bangs. Makes mo sense to me

[@Shinibo]

I always wondered why blunt bangs looks so off on Christina Ricci even though she has a high forehead, and you answered that beautifully!

[@justforsomething]

This video helped confirm the face shape video for me, I'm an hourglass diamond mix with a not much but slightly bigger forehead, and I can confirm I went from no fringe to side/curtain bangs and it was a how have I not been doing the my whole life difference for me.

[@KathBorup]

I have a long forehead and right now I have blunt bangs, I love the look! Another benefit is that bangs cover the fine lines on my forehead and above my eyebrows 😉😂

[@stylerefinement]

Haha agreed!

[@leticiabueno3761]

your channel is GODSEND! It's my rabbit hole xp

[@veronicachic]

soooo basically, if you have a big ass forehead lol

[@stylerefinement]

Haha ORRR if you have stunning eyes but weak eyebrows to frame them 😉

[@raccoonization]

very nice video, you deserve more subs!

[@stylerefinement]

What a compliment - thank you so much!!

[@ik5759]

I got my bangs to hide my widow's peak and bc i wondered how it would look on me (i got it during the lockdown lol) but turns out the hiding the eyebrow shape factor is the real reason why it suits me. My face shape is oval with almost no cheekbones and very rounded jawline and my thirds are proportionate. Unfortunately my hairdresser messed up my bangs a little and I'm growing it out :( anyways love your videos.

[@stylerefinement]

I'm glad you're enjoying my videos! It may sound unusual but changing the shape of your natural brows can be a trick to add dimension to your oval face! Doesn't always work if you have strong brow bones but it is definitely possible. I'm creating a series on brows this week and next week so stay tuned ❤

[@fionah3433]

This is a bit off topic, but a widow's peak (despite the name) is actually a wonderful feature in Chinese face reading. It can be a sign of being very creatively gifted, or maybe psychic. Sometimes they are hard to cover up as the hair wants to separate at the peak as well.

[@laurenlux5506]

I have Bettie bangs and I love them

[@stylerefinement]

Jealous! I'd never be able to pull off the style :P

[@elineermens1]

This hourglass shape is a total new concept to me, never heard of it in the face shapes and is a game changer, because I totally have this! My face shape is very similar to Rosie Huntington-whitely, bangs are horrible on me, perhaps because I have a too short forehead. Even curtain bangs are meh and draw too much attention to my mouth VS eyes if that makes sense?

[@hettyherz]

When I was a kid, we were sort of obligated to have bold bangs. Perhaps, it was a trend in early 90-s. I literally hated them. When I grew up and grew my bang making it disappear, I've realized that I hated those bangs because they are not even close to be good for my facial features. And later it started to look even better when after the age of 25 or something my hair turned from golden-ashy fair, almost blonde, to dark caramel brown and all my front hair became 3B curly after being almost straight all my life before that.

[@stylerefinement]

Interesting to hear the changes in your hair colour and also curls! The bang style that works better for most people are wispy curtain bangs than heavy blunt bangs :)

[@hettyherz]

@@stylerefinement It is very common for a blonde kid to grow up into a dark haired adult. I didn't know that when I was small, but I didn't like my fair hair and wanted it to turn dark so much. So, genes did their magic.

[@munshemiller9488]

I think Rihanna is a great example of this she also fits for ur pixie cut video as well, those styles really complimenting this face shape

[@stylerefinement]

I agree!

[@cathwalsh9921]

I think I have the hourglass or peanut shaped face. I have a square jawline but my cheekbones are my widest part and the top of my head a little narrower. I’ve never fit into any of the face shapes until now. I’m starting to think a fringe suits me more to an having my face exposed but wonder if that’s too much covering my face. The other thing is that I wear sunscreen so think my fringe will get oily quickly from it.

[@stylerefinement]

If you have wide cheekbones, rather than blunt bangs curtain bangs / see-through bangs would appear more natural for you! Agreed with the sunscreen comment though - when I used to have bangs I would wash just my bangs daily lol.

[@dm2836]

I have blunt bangs and wear SPF 50 daily. Dry shampoo sprayed under my bangs and brushed through can get me through an extra day or two without washing

[@ChristaCatharinaMüller]

Could you make a whole video about M-shaped foreheads please?

[@popes446]

thank u for this video, its rly hard to find vids on high foreheads. i have a high forehead and big nose, so i when i do bangs i feel the attention just goes to my nose. but i havent tried short bangs like Krysten ritter. scared to do it though lol. my face is oval, but long with no prominent cheekbones

[@stylerefinement]

If you have a long oval face with little prominence short baby bangs might be a good style for you, especially if you have really big and prominent eyes like Krysten Ritter! Or I would recommend thin see-through bangs to cover the hairline but draw less attention to the nose area ☺️

[@ejhdbegbeidishdj9358]

Great video! If I could only make one suggestion. The sound effects are much louder than the volume you’re speaking at, so it makes it much harder to hear what you’re saying

[@stylerefinement]

Noted!

[@Robin-l1o9k]

Very interesting!

[@BellyLaugher]

Great videos Jenn, Thanks❣If you can spare the time: How do you decide how far back on your crown to start your bangs? Does the shape of your forehead make a difference re: how far back you start them, and whether you separate the crown hair w/the point of an inverted V, horizontal line, or other shapes? & also how can thinning them by cutting into them vertically, intermittently make a helpful difference? Thanks very much🙃

[@stylerefinement]

I think what matters more in determining how much hair to use for your bangs / how far back you should start them is the height of your cranial top! If you have a low cranial top, using too much hair can make the style look awkward :)

[@simosina9260]

This video is amazing, thank you for sharing these infromation! I have a similar face to Dakotas, (very) large forhead and long face - though I think my face is more square shaped with my cheekbones being smiliarly as wide as my yaw. Therefore I am really considering getting bands. The only thing I am still wondering about is, if my haircolor (I am blond) changes anything about the visuals of the bangs combinded with my face. Additionally my eyebrows are not visible due to their color :') Additionally my hair is more on the thiner sinde and has not that much volume (no curls or waves). Do you have any advice for me? That would help me a lot!

[@stylerefinement]

I would suggest a thin / wispy style of curtain bangs leaving a few strands in the middle but most strands along the sides to cover the sides of your hairline / forehead! Have the length of the bangs around or slightly below eyebrows so you can cover the eyebrow area (and the fact that they're not very visible). Make sure to use a thin layer of hair to create this style if you naturally have thin hair!

[@Lena20244]

I dont know, i think with bangs is also a lot about how you get to know someone. My mom had bags her whole life, I never new her differently, and she looks beautiful, if she didnt have them , I would have been use to that look and think the same. Its a lot how you are used to seeing someone or yourself whatever the face shape. Just my oppinion. 😅😊 dont hate it.❤

I've never heard of an hourglass face shape. I looked it up on Google and apparently they haven't either.

[@stylerefinement]

Hi - thank you for the comment! Actually this theory comes from Asian beauty standards. They actually call this face shape the “peanut” shape, but I used the term “hourglass” because there’s a lot of negative associations with having a peanut-shape face in Asian beauty standards, which I think doesn’t make sense!! Try googling “peanut face shape” and you should be able to find some info. 🙂 Hope that helps!!

[@castmembercolby]

all of these ladies have beautiful blue eyes, Im not sure if they suit me who has brown hair and dark brown eyes

[@MaevaBM]

What about long faces where the top part is actually the shortest (although still being very long and exposed with the hairline being up after the curve of the crane making it look a bit like receding)... Would a bang be positive? How to go about that?

[@stylerefinement]

I have a video on short foreheads so check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d525qn1ufMuYoqc

[@MaevaBM]

@@stylerefinement thank you! Sorry for being redundant, I should've find it on my own, i appreciate your help 🙏

[@OctavieOnguema-ug3xq]

What if you you 've got big forehead, little eyes , large nose and little mouth ?

[@sadel21]

What about high foreheads with receding hairline? I wear an off center part. I feel as though blunt bangs bring attention to my prominent nose.

[@stylerefinement]

Thinner styles of curtain bangs or see-through bangs will help with covering your hairline while bringing less of a stark contrast to your nose area :)

[@francesnorton65]

I'd love to cover my high forehead, but I have a very square jawline. Bangs would emphasise that, in that there are two horizontal lines across the face. I'd look like a transformer! 😂😂

[@stylerefinement]

If you combine bangs with a hair length and style that brings less emphasis to the jawline, bangs could still work for you! :) I would recommend curtain bangs over blunt bangs since the emphasis that curtain bangs bring to your lower face is far less harsh than a blunt style of bangs

[@j.c1574]

I have blunt bangs now but i think im going to grow it out to curtain bangs. I have pretty thick eyebrows and its a shame to hide them

[@stylerefinement]

Do it! :)

[@DearHatty]

Dear Jenn, but what if i have a long bottom third? all of those self-tests tells that i should cut shorter, but i can't find any video like that about my features...

[@stylerefinement]

[@superk5]

Thank you🙏

[@stylerefinement]

You’re so welcome! ☺️

[@diana5616]

Great video! According to your methods, I have a oval face and my longer part is the central one... I don't know if a bang would suit me

[@stylerefinement]

Hi! Thanks for the comment :) Oval faces have the advantage of being able to pull off a wide range of styles so you are lucky! But if you have a long middle third, I suggest staying away from bangs because covering your forehead with bangs will draw more attention to your middle third and can accentuate your middle third more. Hope that helps!

[@SofiaCalotti]

@@stylerefinement Interesting, love the approach in your videos! Would wispier bangs or side bangs be better than blunt bangs in that case (because you can still see a significant part of the upper third) or no bangs at all?

[@stylerefinement]

@@SofiaCalotti Yes- curtain bangs or side bangs that expose a part of the forehead would definitely be better!! Whether bangs or no bangs would be better really depends on all your proportions and features, but if we’re JUST talking long middle third (nose area) then no bangs would be best ☺️ hope that helps!

[@sarahfranco6802]

[@inertia86]

I would never do blunt bangs because it would not work with my hair... it is far too light weight for it

[@Xana_K]

How do you go about getting bangs if you have a larger forehead AND a widows peak AND fine hair? I feel cursed 😂😂

[@stylerefinement]

curtain bangs + hot rollers (for volume)!

[@rochelleholmes9271]

What about short bangs?

[@stylerefinement]

Short bangs could also work if you have a long top third, but they tend to add a certain "eccentric" image to your look which not everyone is suited for. Also for Zoey's case her eyebrows need to be somewhat covered, so short bangs above the brows wouldn't work for her! So it really depends on the case :)

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

I simply can't have bangs. They never sit right because I have a strong natural part at the front. Also, they are irritating as hell. Never bothering again.
