Here’s the truth. My entire adult life has been spent with long hair. Even though I love my short hair and look at photos of them whimsically through the windows of New York department stores, I cannot commit to anything. I don’t understand why but cannot part with my long hair. It’s something that I love about my hair. Feeling the weight on my shoulders and seeing it wiggle in the wind. My long hair has been a love affair with me for six years. It shouldn’t end anytime soon.
Book a hair appointment to get your short hair on track. They frame my face and offer a chance for change, but they keep most of the length of my hair intact. They’re the only middle ground between my love for long hair and my desire to have it shorter. It’s a perfect hairstyle–especially for autumn. Scroll down to see 30 stunning examples of long hair styled with bangs.
Soft, Feathery Bangs and Voluminous Waves
We’re sure fans worldwide rushed to the nearest salon when Marissa Marino, her hairdresser, photographed Selena Gomez. This was the most popular hair selfie in the world. Her soft and feathery bangs perfectly complement her long, flowing waves.
Inspired by the ’90s, Bangs
We’ve included two separate tributes to Selena Gomez’s hair. This is her latest take on bangs. They are more ’90s-inspired than the thick ’70s ones she had before.
All-in-One Bangs with Waves
Violette is a beauty director at Estee Lauder and a makeup artist. Her Instagram is full of makeup inspiration. However, I also use it to find French girl hair tips. Her waves and bangs are effortlessly smooth.
Blunt Fringe
Hannah Simone is familiar with the sitcom New Girl. Her character Cece is well-known for her long, black-brown hair with a fringe.
Springy Curls
Zendaya is a beauty chameleon. Her ability to surprise us (or even entrance) with new looks is unmatched. We are still swooning over the Instagram selfie that she posted. It shows her beautiful curls and beautifully styled bangs. The red velvet lips are not the only thing that makes this selfie stand out.
Windswept Bangs
Emily Ratajkowski’s wavy bangs are fantastic, and her tousled texture is top-notch.
Curly Bangs
Are your curls ever so full and glossy? Ciara’s long curls are perfect, especially considering her curly bangs.
Curtain Bangs
Dakota Johnson is synonymous with her chestnut-colored hair. Her hair falls perfectly at her forehead like curtain bangs should.
Wispy Curls
You will no doubt recall the days when almost everyone wore their bangs straight, regardless of how they textured their hair. We couldn’t be happier that curlier styles are now allowed to shine. Christian Serratos’s moment is extraordinary. Her curly, straight bangs contrast beautifully with her blond Hollywood waves.
Full Blunt Fringe
Lily James is blonde now, but we remember fondly when she had a full, blunt fringe and golden brown hair.
Feathered Fringe
This look is our favorite: the feathered fringe and the tousled waves. We also love the golden blonde color. This look is a significant inspiration for fall.
Fringe Inspired by the ’70s
Although Suki Waterhouse has hair that is longer than hers, these bangs look great on any length. The perfect, textured texture of her hair is very ’70s. Try using Verb’s Sea Spray ($20) to get a similar gritty and texturized look.
Sleek Blunt Bangs
Chrissy Teigen wore these blunt hairstyles on the Billboard Awards red carpet. They are so full and smooth that not a hair was left out.
Short Fringe
Penelope Cruz had her bangs trimmed just above her eyebrows. This was an excellent way for her to show off her incredible brows.
Although technically, they could be considered long layers; we call them curtain bangs because they effectively frame the face.
Classic Curtain Bangs
Olivia Rodrigo was the first celebrity to make curtain bangs popular when they became trendy a few years ago. We love the way her style frames her face. Although the musician has grown her fringe, this time will be remembered as an inspiration.
Bottleneck Bangs
Bottleneck bangs are a new trend in fringe. This style is characterized by a gentle parting style that frames your face and resembles a bottle’s neck. Halle Berry’s effortless style is a delight with her tousled, layered cut.
Feathery Fringe
Plaid coat? Check. How do you curl your hair perfectly? Check. Feather fringe? Check. This is an excellent idea for a fall refresh.
Blunt Bangs
Here are some curly hair ideas. We love the way layers are cut into her hair. It only enhances her blunt bangs.
