3. Does it grow very fast? or very slowly!

4. The bangs get oily quite easily

The bangs are in contact with the forehead, one of the greasiest regions of our face. As a result, it eventually absorbs some of this oil and may look uncool even though the rest of the hair looks wonderful.

To avoid this problem, avoid rubbing your bangs at all times and carry a dry shampoo in your bag to disguise the greasiness and keep your hair beautiful until you can wash it.

5. Can your face change? and that's not all bad

Those who have never worn bangs may be surprised to look in the mirror right after the cut, as it can greatly change their appearance according to the shape of their face, the characteristics of their hair and their age.

Longer side bangs form a face frame, making the face narrower. Eyebrow fringes, in turn, can add charm or make you look younger.

Very short bangs are best suited for rectangular and square faces and narrow-brow people, as they have the power to lengthen features. However, this type of bangs may not look very nice on people with a round face or very wide forehead, as it further highlights these characteristics.
