Bangs, They are always a point of interest but a hard follow through. Better yet, follow through with disappointment sometimes. Here’s a couple ideas to get you through the season and staying on trend.

1. A good mid-length bang  with a side sweep or a middle part can be the perfect hybrid to a wishful fringe without the commitment of a full bang, and also compliments the mid length cut/ long bob that has been trending this year.

2. Buy some clip on bangs. Its a great accessory to add to your hair collection and absolutely no commitment. The Hair Shop has some great options and so does LuxHair .

Make sure when purchasing hair pieces you have appropriate storage for them to lengthen their life. The best all around storage, travel, and styling aid is HairClutch.

 

Bangs, the ultimate desire, and then…dun dun dun….the tears.

Us, ladies always want change, but then don’t always like what we’ve done. Don’t get me wrong, bangs look so amazing on some of us that we shouldn’t go a day without them. However, for most of us, it’s seasonal, trendy, and a breakup moment.

Our sincerest advice for every lady out there, get a set of clip in bangs first. They run you about $50 and the human hair ones you can color, cut and have your stylist customize for you. Once you wear them a bit and decide you love them, then for it! Otherwise you have just added some more versatility with your style.

The best bang piece options are at The Hair Shop http://shop.hairpiece.com/hairpieces/. For bangs, you want to match the color of your bang to your roots. If you are a blonde and have highlights, make sure to have your stylist give the hairpiece a little color on the root, it might need a base.

Here are some celebs with clip on bangs, bet ya didn’t know!! Shhh! It’s our little secret!
