    Default how do you style your bangs?

    I want to learn various ways to style my bangs.
    I got bangs for the first time and they're kinda high-maintenance!

    I got the flat across "Nelly Furtado" bangs.

    They're hot I luv them but I battle with them too much.
    They are cut like hers, but I'm not sure how to make them look nice and tight like that.

    My hair is naturally curly wavy so I guess my problem comes down to what kind of product to use on them. My hairdresser wasn't too much help

    When I wear my hair curly, I sweep them to the side and pin them back for a couple hours, or over night. My hair is so stubborn. But I really think my biggest problem is lack of a good product

    I have straight across bangs, as well, but thicker and shorter. Pretty much all I can do with them is curl them under. I also have naturally curly hair. I use Artec Kiwi Blow Silk, just a tiny bit throughout the wet bangs so that they don't get frizzy. I blow dry them on low while using a round brush to keep them from going all nuts. I seperate them into smaller sections to flat iron themand then turn the flat iron under at the ends to make them curl under.

    I have the same hair as u. naturally curly/wavey hair and I too have the nelly furtado bangs that I style when my hair is straight.

    here's what I do:

    make sure u blow dry ur hair, concentrating on blow drying ur bangs forward and down toward ur nose and chin. then blow the rest dry.
    then when I flat iron I keep the bangs down on my forehead and flat iron my hair, and do my bangs last (that can be annoying having the bangs in ur face, but its important for them to set there while ur ironing the rest of ur hair) then when I get to my bangs and flat iron then straight down and very slightly curve the bottom, do not over iron them, one or two sweeps with the flat iron should do the trick...use a brush and the blow dryer to get them to sit better after again, and that should do the trick.

    hope u get what I'm saying, its hard to explain with over the internet. I took me some time to figure it out, bangs are so hard to style. but that works for me.

    Lol a lot of times I give myself a sort of Disney 'Ariel' side bang as my sister calls it. Like that one big flip.

    I just erased my post after reading Rurus -- shes dead on! Dont let your hair dry naturally. The direction they dry in is hard to break. Blow dry them down then flat iron.

    Flat iron after you dry your hair. I've found that using some sort of smoothing anti frizz product really helps the bangs lay how you fix them. Also with the flat iron you can make a nice fat curve. Instead of pulling your iron stright down, make it curve out and away from your forehead. Looks extreme at first but when your done it makes a nice curve.

    That's the cool thing about the wig I just bought, I can do so many things with them. I can leave them hanging straight to my chin and give it that sexy, looking-at-chu-through-my-hair thing, or I could give them a light curl to better look like doll hair (did I mention I like the Japanese lolita look?) or simply use some cute neon colored bobby pins that match my outfit in an X formation to hold them out of my face for the cute anime girl look.
    Exotic dancing is like any other job.
    If you work in an office, you wear dress shoes and a suit.
    If you work in a restaraunt, you wear skid resistant shoes and a uniform.
    If you work in a strip club, you wear 7" stilettos and lycra g-strings.

    they need to be blowdryed immediately then hit with a small barralled flat iron then some pliable clay/pomade/putty i reccomend these too
