It is happening. We are all confined and the quarantine prevents us from making our visits to the hairdresser, nail salon or beauty salon. At home, we are managing as best we can, but beware that we are becoming real experts in everything and we are learning beauty lessons by obligation. The good news is that in the future, when everything returns to normal, they will come in handy in situations with limited possibilities, such as a vacation or sick leave.
For example, how many in here are starting to feel uncomfortable with their bangs because they have grown it out or need to refresh their look a bit? Yes, we are many. That is why we have proposed to find the definitive tutorial to cut our bangs at home without messing it up and without disasters that are difficult to solve. And it is that cutting our bangs, which in addition this 2020 is a pure trend, can give a bit of life to our image until we can go back to a hairdresser , but, of course, we can not do it foolishly and madly. It involves her technique. It is easy but we must follow the steps very meticulously. If Rosalía and Úrsula Corberó can, we can too!
The first thing you have to be clear about is if you really want to cut your bangs. That is to say, that it is not an outburst or to hang out on a Sunday afternoon. The hair grows but once we cut it it will take months to regain its length, so, in addition to heart, let's put our head to our decisions. The second, and not least, is to know what type of fringe is the one that favors us the most according to our face type (we leave you all the detailed information here to avoid any misgivings).
All of us who are here have fallen into the temptation of using the sewing scissors to cut our bangs at home, and from that experience we have learned that first you have to do a little field work. And, of course, be aware that we are not professionals in hair matters and that it is better to have a basic fringe or touch up the minimum than to come up and end with a baby bangs fringe (that all is said is the most. Feel free ).
The easiest way to cut your bangs at home
To the lemon that the day is going away. We have been thinking about cutting our hair at home for a long time and TODAY is the day. Without fear but with care. How are we going to do it? We have dived into Youtube, the pinnacle of beauty tutorials, and we have found countless videos and techniques, and among them we have located what we believe is the easiest way for a fringed curtain, paraded, which takes a lot and would be the most universal. And that also rejuvenates instantly.
Open bangs step by step
- Select the part of hair that you want to turn into bangs. It must be separated in a triangle shape, so place the top vertex in the center of the head, more or less close to the root, depending on how dense you want it, and separate the hair from the sides with a comb, as if were the sides of the triangle, taking the measurement of the arch of the eyebrows as a reference. Collect the rest of the hair. TIP : If you want to have a better reference, draw with any eyeliner a line on the forehead that coincides with the change in the direction of the eyebrow and thus you will make sure that you have taken the ideal amount of hair.
- Dampen the hair that will be your new bangs, but very little so as not to lose control. It can be with a spray or by moistening the comb itself. Do not wet it completely or you will run the risk that when the hair dries you will look like Amelie (which we insist, not too bad for the most daring).
- Take the 'bangs' at the height you want to cut it (strip by length and better be modifying, this is a friend's advice). Once you have the length, hold it with your index and middle fingers horizontally and turn your hand until the fingers point to the opposite side . Once the lock is turned, you can either use the opposite hand, putting your fingers in the same way, or hold the hair with a food clip, which is completely straight. And without fear (and possibly with decent scissors) cut straight . IMPORTANT: Make the cut below the fingers or the pliers.
TRUCAZO for the side locks
This fringe asks for a parade on the sides to make it TOP and more natural. We all love those 'escaped' hairs. To do this, do it in the following way.
- Once you have your bangs done, collect it with a clip or a rubber band. Then repeat the initial operation, with a comb, take two thin strands from each side of the bangs, drawing a line towards the forehead.
- So that the cut is not straight and unnatural, take the lock to the other side of the face, stretching it a lot and keeping your fingers diagonally, make a straight cut at the height you want, ideally at the level of the chin. This way you will get a longer fringe on the sides, which integrates perfectly with the hair.
- Once you have the 'fringe' done, if you dare to match it, take all the bangs and, in the same way, you take it to the other side of the face in parts and with your fingers diagonally you parade it a little or give it the finish that you like the most , but also very carefully and little by little.
