Bangs are the ultimate hair upgrade—they can soften features, add drama, or completely transform your look. But with so many styles to choose from, finding the perfect match for your face shape can feel overwhelming.
From wispy fringe to bold, blunt cuts, there’s a bangs style for everyone. Whether your face is round, oval, square, or heart-shaped, these 15 styles will inspire your next salon visit.
Curtain Bangs
Curtain bangs are parted in the center or slightly off-center, creating a soft frame for your face. This versatile style suits all face shapes, elongating round faces and softening angular ones.
They’re low-maintenance and grow out gracefully, making them a go-to option for bang beginners.
Wispy Bangs
Wispy bangs are light and feathery, adding a subtle touch to your hairstyle. They’re perfect for oval or square faces, softening strong features without overpowering them.
These bangs blend seamlessly into the rest of your hair, giving you an effortlessly chic look.
