Snap bangs, a bold and edgy hair trend, are making waves in the fashion world. Theyre the perfect way to add a touch of drama and glamour to any look.
What To Consider Before Getting Snap Bangs:
- Your face shape: Snap bangs can flatter most face shapes, but theyre particularly suitable for oval, diamond, and heart-shaped faces.
- Your hair texture: Snap bangs work best on straight or slightly wavy hair. If you have curly or coily hair, you may need to use styling products or heat to keep them in place.
- Your maintenance skills: Snap bangs require regular trimming and styling to maintain their shape. If youre not comfortable with committing to a high-maintenance hairstyle, snap bangs may not be the best choice for you.
Step-by-Step Guide to Cutting Snap Bangs:
- Wash and comb your hair to remove any tangles.
- Part your hair down the middle and create a triangular section at the front of your head.
- Comb the hair in the section forward and hold it at the desired length.
- Cut the hair at a 90-degree angle to the forehead.
- Repeat steps 3-4 on the other side of the section.
- Blend the snap bangs into the rest of your hair.
