An important part of the hairstyle of any girl is a stylish and beautiful bang. She is able at one moment to give your image the very zest that all men appreciate. The choice of a suitable bang for short haircuts is especially important - here they play the greatest role in forming the first impression. That is why we will consider today successful bangs with a bob haircut - one of the most popular varieties of short haircuts.
Kare history
For many years, Kare has remained one of the most famous and stylish haircuts for girls.
The classic type of this haircut has undergone a large number of changes on the path to modernity., the length of hair and bangs during the haircut was constantly changing not only by the fashion houses themselves, but also by fashionistas, forming more and more new varieties. But if you go a little deeper into the history of the appearance of a square, it becomes clear that the first haircut of this kind did not appear at all from a skilled hairdresser’s hand.
Recall the military and post-war time of the beginning of the XX century. Men went to war, and women had to take on all of the homework. At this time, they had to forget about their own well-being and only care that the work was done and the children fed. That is why many girls between practicality and appearance preferred the former.
The beginning and the first half of the 20th century was the height of the women's movement for the right to vote (we all remember the suffragist movement in the United States and Great Britain), which also touched fashion itself as a whole. Caret and short hairstyles became a symbol of independence, freedom and strong-willed character, to the detriment of tenderness, naivety and sensuality, which were inherent in long and luxurious curls.
As one would expect, first of all, such a hairstyle fashion found its audience with a young audience. The most striking example of a talented person with such a haircut was the famous Coco Chanel. Inspired by her example, and by the example of dozens of well-known secular lionesses, women with open arms and open heads took a new look for haircuts.
If the original caret was only short-cropped hair with the same short bangs, then over time the style began to modernize radically - experiments began with the length of the bangs and the entire hair, with styling and their structure - it was then that the fashion for wavy and uneven the length of the strand.
Advantages and disadvantages of a caret
The square had many advantages over the haircuts of that time - let's first look at the pros, and then move on to some obvious disadvantages. We will also try to touch on the individual pros and cons of certain varieties of hair cuts with certain types of bangs.
Merits.
- It is very easy to look after a haircut with any bangs. A head with short hair is much faster to wash, dry, comb and style.
- If long hair in most cases indicates a lack of natural volume due to the large weight and tension of the curls, then with short hair this problem disappears.
- A bob haircut with a well-chosen fringe is ideal for girls with problem skin and a large forehead. Moreover, such a haircut even with an oval square-shaped face makes his features more elegant and subtle.
- A caret does not require great professionalism from the master: all that should be in your arsenal is good and sharp scissors, a thick comb or brushing, as well as scissors for milling.
- Versatility - this haircut fits almost any face contour and hair structure.
Disadvantages.
- The main disadvantage of some varieties of caret is the need to constantly maintain the hairstyle in a stably neat condition. This applies to alignment, adjustment and styling.
- Another important drawback of a square with such kinds of bangs as smooth, round or graduated is the difficulty in finding a suitable master for a neat bang. Even despite the fact that all these types of bangs with a square can be modeled independently, not everyone has the nerves and time for it.
If with bangs such bangs (with the failure of the master) could somehow be beaten due to the total length of the hair, then with a square any flaw can look critical.
Varieties and features of techniques
The most compelling advantage of a bob haircut is that it offers us many ways to experiment. There are many varieties of bob haircuts with bangs, but we will try to consider the most basic and understand what is special about each.
One side long
A square with a regrowing bang on one side is useful for focusing on individual facial features. Here great opportunities are open to the master, where everything depends only on the desires of the fashionista and the texture of the hair. Long bangs can be torn, oblique, graduated. In any case, with such a bang, any short haircut looks stylish and elegant.
The elongated fringe is designed to soften the straight lines of the cheekbones and chin, to give the whole image a soft femininity and proportionality. Depending on the length, texture and color of the hair, as well as different ways of styling it, you can achieve completely different results.
Torn
Torn bangs are one of the most popular options today.This kind of bangs with a square involves the formation of uneven and asymmetric strands. It looks especially extraordinary with a classic and strict square. Torn bangs are designed to smooth out the excessive rigor and straightness of the lines in the hairstyle itself.
The most suitable option for a bang of this type would be graduated and milled squares. The length of the torn strands is not regulated by anything, there are options with a torn bangs to the middle of the forehead or to the eyebrow / eye line - it all depends on the master and your desires.
Such a fringe looks great when laid to one side, however, many girls experiment, leaving torn strands in a slightly careless and erratic form. Torn bangs rejuvenates the face, gives it more grace and mystery. Not to mention the fact that this type is better than everyone else is able to hide defects in appearance and problem areas on the face.
With a scythe
The oblique variety of bangs was not taken seriously at first, girls usually resorted to it, as the simplest way to get rid of annoying hair. Today, oblique bangs are one of the main attributes in the assortment of many fashionistas. It gives any image a piquancy and freshness, and can also smooth out imperfect facial features (especially for square faces). This bangs has only one minus - without reliable fixation, some part of the curls now and then gets into your eyes.
The most successful option for a bangs of an oblique type will be medium or long caret with graduation, in this case the hairstyle will turn out to be magnificent, youthful and even catchy. Oblique bangs usually fit sideways, along the line of the eyebrows or slightly lower. Some girls prefer a double oblique bangs - this is when a parting on the curls is done in the middle, and the locks are fixed on the temples or behind the ears.
This option looks spectacular with an elongated square. Looks good and oblique bangs for a square, created due to the smooth cuts of even strands.
Straight
The ancestor of straight bangs is a classic kind of square. Despite its centennial roots, the classic straight bangs are constantly found at fashion shows. An even type can emphasize the symmetry of facial features and the solid, even and calm disposition of a fashionista. Such a bang looks good with smooth straight hair, the standard length here is to the eyebrow line, however, many prefer very short bangs to the middle of the forehead. If the bangs are thick, you can do it with easy thinning, if the hair is thin and quite rare, the option of a smooth two-layer bangs is suitable.
With graduated
Graduated fringe involves a step haircut or haircut ladder. Usually a bang of this type is worn with the same graduated square of medium length. Such a hairstyle can visually soften the face and give it softness. In addition to the natural volume, a graduated fringe will help to hide imperfect facial features. The optimal length in this case is along the line of the eyes and or to the line of the eyebrows.
Most of all, this type goes to straight or slightly curly hair, because for wavy strands, graduation can be almost invisible.
Asymmetric
Asymmetry is the perfect way to change your image. It is worth changing the length of the strands a bit, working on the bangs and texture - and now you have a completely different image. Asymmetric square with bangs emphasizes individuality in a girlsuccessful asymmetric images are always to some extent fresh and extravagant. So, for example, a very short asymmetric square with a bang will look aggressive. A longer square will give the face femininity and mystery, emphasize the dignity of the face, smooth a square or triangular chin.
This variant of a bang with bangs looks good with straight hair, it is with this type of hair that the asymmetry stands out more effectively.
With triangular
There are not many successful examples of triangular fringe with a square. This mainly concerns a strictly defined oval of the face.Such a fringe can successfully look on square or oval faces, it will emphasize your eyes, eyebrows and a straight nose, visually reduce your forehead. With triangular faces, this type of bangs does not look particularly good, since it only increases the external angularity of the face.
Most often, such haircuts can be found in fashion magazines and on catwalks, but in real life, few dare to conduct such an experiment with their onions.
Fashion trends
Recently, double-layered filigree and graduated bangs have become increasingly popular, they are designed to give the hair a natural splendor and volume. Stylists and classic varieties of squares were not disregarded. - models with strict classic square and straight bangs appear on fashion shows every now and then.
Gaining popularity, the novelty of the season is a medium-length square with a long oblique fringe, while the ends of the hair are subjected to very easy thinning.
The color of the hair gives preference to natural tones.
For brunettes - These are copper, chestnut and coffee shades with highlighting or lightening of the tips. Blondes are recommended to experiment with sunny tones: sand, honey and wheat colors will look the most beneficial. For more daring and creative blonde young ladies, bright fiery and berry colors can come up.
Do not forget about the harmony between hair color and the color of your eyes / skin. So, girls with light pink skin can try golden and light brown colors, in rare cases it is worth turning to light chestnut shades.
How to stack?
For styling all types of bangs with a caret you will need brushing, a mirror, a hair dryer, regular and thinning scissors, clips or invisible to fix the rest of the hair. Hair can be moistened a little so that even the most naughty curls were easy to cut and style.
However, overdoing it with wetting is also not worth it. Wet hair appears visually longer than dry, which can make the result unpredictable.
We will try to briefly go over the features of laying each type of square with a bang.
- In a bang of a direct type, everything is quite simple. Curls are separated from the rest of the hair by clamps or fixed with varnish. Then starting from either side, we select a separate strand on the bangs, the length of which we will be guided in the future. Selecting a strand, cut off at the desired length. Gradually, slightly pulling the remaining hair, we do the same with the rest of the bangs. Try to leave a little extra length, so that if something happens, then adjust. After the haircut, the bangs can be milled, processed with a round comb to give volume or round the ends.
- Torn bangs. We start the haircut with an already familiar fixation. The secret of torn bangs is the formation of small flagella from thin strands, which are then cut at an angle at a selected length. In this case, the cut length of each flagellum can be very different. Then the hair is simply milled and combed.
- Haircut oblique bangs reminds styling straight, with the only exception that from the beginning the bangs should move from top to bottom - it will be easier to control the smoothness of the cut. If you mean a long slanting fringe, then it does not need a certain styling. Such bangs are fixed with hairpins, hairpins or just hide behind the ears. This also includes styling of an asymmetric bang, where everything is individual and very dependent on the length of the square.
- Graduated bangs, as a rule, does not fit separately from the hairstyle, therefore, all the rules for styling are the same as for the entire hair. The only thing worth paying attention to is the desired length of the bangs.
- For a haircut triangular bangs you should contact an experienced master. Only in talented hands can she look successful. We do not recommend you to resort to cutting this bangs at home: there is a risk of uneven sections, the wrong parting and length of curls.
How to choose?
It is worthwhile to carefully consider the choice of bangs for your bob haircut. We will consider some factors that are responsible for the choice below, however, do not forget that the success of any haircut depends on your internal state.
Take a look at any type of bangs from the point of view of your overall image, your lifestyle and character.
- So, business and calm women with a balanced lifestyle will go smooth and soft bangs with graduation. They will not take much time for laying and will not create a false impression about you from strangers.
- Fashionable women with a young and rebellious character will certainly suit non-standard options for the most diverse lengths and colors. Here a whole field for experiments opens before the girl and the master. However, this does not mean that the result should be treated through the sleeves. The selection of bangs in this case is also an important task.
- If we talk about children's versions of bangs with a bang, then today preference is given to a classic bang with a scythe or a straight bang. For children with curly long hair, an asymmetrical square with a long bang is ideal.
By face type
Some varieties of haircuts with bangs are suitable for a strictly defined face contour. So what are the preferences for the variety of bob with bangs exist.
- Square face shape urgently needs softening of features: cheekbones, chin, nose. A square face does not tolerate too short hairstyles, so a long type with a slanting and voluminous fringe is more suitable here. In this case, you can choose a parting yourself, but again you should avoid straight lines and angles - here it is important to achieve facial softening.
- Oval face type not particularly finicky and can look good with any kind of square and any kind of bangs. Fashionistas with this type of face can calmly experiment with their hairstyle and each time achieve some new result. Here everything depends only on your desire and on what exactly you want to focus on. If it is your lips or cheekbones, we recommend the type of haircuts with elongated strands in front.
If you are the owner of a beautiful, even and small forehead, it may be worthwhile to completely abandon the fringe as such and get along with the usual parting.
- Triangular or elongated face type badly needs a voluminous and, preferably, long bangs that can hide a large forehead or imperfect shape of the eyebrow. Most of all, an even bangs along the eyebrow line or a bangs flush with the hairdo are suitable for this. If instead of a wide forehead you have a sufficiently large and wide chin - an ideal option would be to choose a haircut with a length not less than the length of the chin. This will visually reduce it and focuses on beautiful facial features.
- Problem too round faces for caret in excessive roundness of forms. Graduation should handle this. An uneven and slightly inaccurate-looking hairstyle visually stretches your face, even helps to hide some skin imperfections.
- As for the common features of the face, neck and collarbones, the so-called square on the leg is best suited for small facial features, and too long a neck can be easily hidden under a long square not higher than shoulder level.
The choice of hair color for caret
Despite the fact that the natural color of hair has recently become increasingly popular, a lot of questions arise for modern fashionistas about what color will best look like a haircut. In fact, there are a lot of options and no one bothers you to experiment, but there are typical recommendations for hair color for a caret.
There are three factors by which modern fashionistas choose a good color for a square:
- eye color;
- skin tone;
- color of business and casual clothes.
The combination of eye color and the color of your hair will only add sophistication and refinement to the whole image, the similarity to the skin color will help hide its imperfections and even help to distract attention from too noticeable makeup. The importance of a successful combination of color of clothes and hair is not even worth talking about - this is one of the most important manifestos of any girl.
So, we will analyze successful examples of the compatibility of hair color with the color of eyes and skin.
- Brown eyes (include a large group of shades: from golden and dark green to black and brown). Depending on the depth of the shade, the hair color is usually chosen. So, curls of dark shades will suit purely brown eyes: black, dark chestnut, dark blond. Reddish and sunny shades are wonderful for golden-brown eyes, they will give the general image of mischief, cheerfulness and originality. People with brown eyes are usually characterized by dark skin, which also fits perfectly with the image with dark hair.
- Blue eyes (include a less wide range of shades: from dark blue to light blue with a splash). Blue-eyed girls have a whole arsenal for experimenting with the color of curls. You can include absolutely all shades here: pleasant sandy hair colors, red, light chestnut. Even black hair with expressive blue eyes can look killer.
- If the shade of the eyes is close to gray or pale, then wheat and ashy shades are more suitable here. Gray-eyed people, as a rule, have white and fair skin, which can perfectly play in the whole image.
- Green eyes (gradient from light green to dark green interspersed). Here, more and more depends on the color of your skin than on the color of the eyes themselves. Girls with delicate wheat or white skin should have a clear light brown color. If the effect is too simple and mediocre, you can always experiment with color using coloring or highlighting. If the girl has green eyes, but a dark, dark golden and tanned skin, then you should turn to darker colors in the hair. Here, dark chestnut and copper colors come to the rescue.
It is worthwhile under any circumstances to avoid dyeing the hair in purely black or pale colors, in this case even bright green eyes may not save the situation, and all the pleasant features will fade into the background.
By type and length of hair
Everything here is intuitively simple. A thick hairstyle will not need graduation by nature, it all depends on what effect you want to achieve from the hair. In this case, bangs with easy milling and a direct cut look good.
Thin and not particularly thick hair, on the contrary, needs as much volume as possible. In this case, the masters usually suggest making a two-layer bang bang and options with graduation. Thinning should be discarded, and rare hair should not be disturbed.
Wavy or curly curls in rare cases are tolerant of short bangs and hairstyles, so elongated options will look best. Try to pay attention to asymmetric, oblique and ragged varieties of bangs: these types go best to hair with wavy hair.
As for the norms for the length of the bangs and the hair itself, then for a short type, it will be more successful to choose the bangs option to the eyebrow line, and in some cases, if the curls are selected along the length of the hair, it is longer. On the other hand, an elongated square accepts most of the bangs, but short varieties to the middle of the forehead will look best.
