A hairstyle consists of a number of elements that complement each other. One of these elements is bangs - an individual “accessory” in a girl’s look. But this element becomes even more spectacular in the image of a beautiful bride.
Our female clients have different types of bangs: straight, solid or asymmetrical, 70s style or long. When choosing a wedding hairstyle, you should definitely take into account the type of bangs, because they will help hide the imperfections of the bride’s face and bring the shape of the hairstyle as close as possible to the ideal one or even become its highlight.
The most advantageous bangs for a wedding hairstyle are elongated. When you first meet the bride for a trial hairstyle, you should talk to the girl about whether she is ready to let her bangs go. The argument can be made that this type of bangs will perfectly “adapt” to any hairstyle.
Such bangs will suit absolutely everyone; they will visually hide imperfections in the shape of the face, namely, they will smooth out the corners and make the face closer to an oval. In addition, elongated bangs can be integrated into the hairstyle so that the bride’s hair appears longer. Or leaving bangs loose near the face has been a trend for several wedding seasons in a row.
Let's consider another option: the bride, for some reason, does not want or cannot let her bangs go. In this case, we offer her hairstyles suitable for her face shape and bang type. For example, for arched bangs in the style of the 70s, a slightly higher than average bun with volume at the crown is suitable. This hairstyle will be winning, stylish and modern. With this type of bangs, a simple, light hairstyle based on a shell with volume on the top of the head looks good, as if it was put together yourself.
The situation is similar with a low bun of simple shape; it also goes well with arched bangs. Asymmetrical, oblique bangs can visually brighten up square facial features and “lighten” the chin. This type of bangs will look great with a side Greek braid and low to medium curl buns or a light air curl.
Smooth bangs of a solid shape are the most difficult for all hairstyles, since they leave little room for imagination. It is quite difficult to fit it beautifully and harmoniously into the image of the bride. The most versatile hairstyle for this type of bangs is a lower bun of curls. Its shape will be in harmony with the bangs - naturally and effortlessly.
Styling bangs
In order to style any type of bangs, we comb the entire area of the bangs from root to tip in strands. As a result, we get a well-combed bang area. We connect all the strands and work with all the strands as a whole. In the case of long bangs - with two strands on either side of the parting. We comb out the bangs from all sides with a fork comb in order to smooth out the backcomb, but at the same time leave it in a rounded shape. We arrange the ends with a “fork”, give them a direction and, if necessary, use our fingers to form the texture of the bangs, then fix them.
conclusions
The best type of bangs for a wedding hairstyle is long, as it gives us room for imagination and is universal for all clients. If you work with other types of bangs, your task is to hide the client’s shortcomings as much as possible and bring the hairstyle closer to an oval shape, then any hairstyle will be harmonious in the entire image of the bride.
We have revealed little secrets for you that will make choosing a hairstyle with bangs easier. Then it’s all a matter of little things – the master’s sense of style and the client’s wishes, then your bride will be irresistible on her wedding day!
