Hello, everyone welcome to, or welcome back to my channel, maybe here and a few years ago. I don't know whether it was 2 or 3 years ago, but I did cut myself some like wispy bangs and that video did really well and people seem to like how the bangs turned out. However, it was more like a watch me cut my bangs and see how it turns out video and it wasn't really like a tutorial. So, as you can see, I believe got my hair and I cut it shorter than it's been in a while and it's super high maintenance now, so I figured let's make it more high maintenance. Why not? You know so in this video, I'm gon na be showing you how I cut my bangs again, but I want to talk through it and give you guys some pointers. If you don't know, I'm a professional hairstylist. I'Ve been licensed for 5 years, and it's just what I do so, if you like content like this, I also love to make mommy content lifestyle content, cleaning organization. All that jazz then consider subscribing to my channel and giving this video a thumbs up. You'Ll make my entire day and without further ado, let's get some bangs. Okay. Also. I have a mirror like directly in front of me, so I'm not looking at the camera, I'm obviously trying to see what I'm doing so. Let'S get started, you are going to need a comb, a flat iron scissors or shears. You name it and a few clips. Maybe a brush if you want a brush, but that's really all you're gon na need. I'M gon na take my comb and with the bangs that I like to create a lot of times, you'll hear of the fringe area. It'S like this giant triangular area and that creates a little bit more of a heavy bang. I don't really like that. I, like a really soft wispy bang. That'S like see-through ish, it's a little bit more subtle, so I'm going to take like a very, very, very thin and fine small section. I'M gon na work at it too. So I'm starting off with this guy's. As you can see, I do tend to part my hair right here. So a lot of getting bangs is training your bangs, which is so annoying, but you got ta. Do it so now that I'm happy with my section, I'm gon na take some clips. Oh God, um don't judge my clips guys, I'm the hair colorist, so they can ask you and I'm just if you can hear the wind outside I'm so sorry, it's so windy outside today. I'M just going to make myself look ridiculous. Now it's time to decide the length of your bang we're gon na start cutting okay. I prefer doing this dry because I have curlier hair and it tends to kink up a lot. So you can do it wet. I don't recommend it, but basically I'm going to take a small little like sliver section like this, maybe even less than this okay, and this is going to be the shortest piece. So how I like my bangs to fall is the shortest piece right about maybe like eye brow length like mid eyelid and then it kind of like an eye like an upside down tu shape almost or like a rainbow shape just curving down, so that it doesn't Look as blunt um against my hair, so we're gon na take this little section. Okay, I always always always always recommend cutting longer at first also, you have to consider when you're pulling it down like this you're creating tension. So once you release it, it's going to bounce up, so that's another reason why you want to cut a little bit longer and then just work as you go, because you can always cut shorter. You can't add hair on after so I'm literally just gon na go chop, see that all right, there's literally no going back now little by little. Now I'm going to keep chopping until I feel like I'm happy with the link. Okay, see right there. That'S the perfect amount for me. I don't want to go any shorter than that. I'M gon na take one tail, I'm gon na comb it like this. So now I can see my shorter length here and this long tail and I'm gon na go in and just start snipping away. It'S a nice little angle in there. Okay, you see that Michael shorter afterwards, but this is just how it is. You got to play with it. I should go now. I'M gon na do the same thing with the other side and you're, using your shortest piece as your guide. Okay, now that I'm getting somewhere, I think it's really important to utilize a flatiron and it's a style as you're cutting to see how everything is falling to make sure you don't hate it. Okay. So now I still look a little rough okay. This is not how you want to leave the bangs, but I am happy with the overall length of everything and how everything is pretty much like curved and whatnot. As I look in the mirror - Alan oh wow, it looks to you guys, but now this is the key to success. This is what is going to create that wispy, like effortless, like almost like a bohemian feel this is texturizing. Okay, so I like to start in the middle and first of all, the bangs are already fairly thin, so you don't want to go crazy with this and they're not bulky by any means, but this is what's gon na really create that like effortless texture, so you Go in and I only personally like to texturize like the bottom inch or so, and you go up, and you start cutting upwards like this, when you cut upwards, like this you're, just going to be texturizing as soon as you start, adding an angle onto it. That'S when you're gon na start like cutting out actual like lengths and pieces, and we don't really want that. So that's just like the basis of it. Now I'm gon na go around and I'm continue doing that around the entire binning. I'M gon na go back in with a flatiron, I'm just continue playing with it until I get the look I'm going for and guys. I know I mentioned this before, but one really really important thing to know is that your hair, if it is part of a specific way, it's going to take some readjustment and some styling to get it to sit the way you want it to, because it's already Been trained to lay in a specific part, so sometimes bangs can be tricky because you really have to retrain how it falls. But by like your first wash and restyle, it should already start falling and you'll. Learn to like how you like your bangs styled. So don't get discouraged, it definitely does take some time and it takes some practice and it takes like just messing around with it and manipulating a little bit to get where you're trying to go okay. So this is the finished result. I attempted to put my hair back for a short as it is to just give you guys. The bang look because honestly, one of my favorite looks with banks is to be able to just weigh your hair back and out of the way, and then the only thing you really have to worry about is your bangs. So I guess it's like a high maintenance. Low maintenance toss-up, but this is the end result I actually really like how they came out. Considering this isn't um like styled to the bang, it was just kind of like cut with the way my hair was already styled. If that makes any sense, I think that this is really great, and I know once I wash it and style it again. It'S going to look even better and the more I get used to the banks and the more I train, my bangs they're, going to just continue looking better. So I hope you guys really really liked this video. Hopefully, the more tutorial styled talking through the bank situation was more helpful for you guys if you actually want to cut your bangs at home. Like I said, I am a licensed professional, so I'm very comfortable doing this to myself and even at that, it's not really easy because of you know doing it on yourself doing anything on yourself, hair wise. It'S not super easy. If you are gon na try this on yourself and you feel comfortable doing so then leave a comment below and then I'm gon na leave my instagram handle here. I would love it if you guys sent me a picture of how it came out and yeah. That'S really it. I have bangs now and I'm gon na love them. While I got them. That is all for today's video. I hope you guys have a wonderful week and I'll catch you in the next one.

Danice Girl: Thanks for this helpful video. My bangs are poker straight naturally and about the thickness of yours. I also like my bang-line to start about where you like yours. I watched several videos before I landed on yours. All the others demonstrated that "triangle" method which just doesn't work on my head. I've cut my bangs many times in my life and usually poorly. After watching your video three times and trying to copy what you did, this is the first time I have ever really liked the result. I can't go to a stylist because of the pandemic, so you have really given me back some joy. This is the first time my hair has looked good in months. Thank you young lady. You are a good teacher.
