Lissa Rinna Short Hairstyle with Bangs

Short Hairstyles with bangs (fringe, for of all you Brits)

Short hair and bangs are like peanut butter and jelly, they just naturally go together. Americans know them as bangs but much of the world knows them as fringe. If you are looking for a quick, easy way to update your look . . . try adding or changing the style of your bangs. There are hair designs for bangs to fit your face shape, hairstyle and hair type.

A frustrating issue I hear often, is this:

The frustrating part here is, I know these women could wear a hair style with bangs if they just knew how to style them.

Cowlicks can be tamed and straightened with a flat iron. Because of the flat irons ability to lay on the forehead, without burning, these hair types can now achieve straight bangs easily and quickly.

If your having a hard time believing this one because of your past experience, have your hair stylist show you how it’s done. You may be pleasantly surprised!

The most favored choice of bangs on short hairstyles today are bangs that are styled forward in long chunky pieces and highlighted to add more texture and depth. Texturizing techniques give movement and airiness to the long layered bangs. Paris Hilton, Lisa Rinna and Sienna Miller show slightly different versions of this look.

Another trendy, but less worn hair design is the heavy, blunt cut bang of the 60’s, (think early Cher.) It can be an extremely vogue look on woman who carry it off by dressing in vogue fashion. But others, beware, hairstyles with straight, heavy bangs can be the kiss of death in, oh, so many ways! Round face shapes and square face shapes should steer clear of the blunt cut bang hairstyles. These bangs will give the illusion of added weight to your face shape. Kelly Osborne wears this hairstyle,despite of her her round face shape . . . but that’s Kelly!

The short-short, fringy bangs are soooo cute, particularly on petite women, or women with small bone structures and face shapes. These types of bangs can be wispy with uneven edges, or, chunkier and uneven. If you have big round eyes, and a smaller frame, you must try this type of hair style bang. The only face shape that should not wear this is an oblong or rectangular face shape, this hairstyle will only make you face shape longer.

OHH . . . and this is important, you should have a nice face, because the short-short fringy bang hair style shows everything off! A well proportioned face is best, that means, if you have a large nose, chin or forehead, think twice about the fringe.
