About Micro Bangs
Micro bangs are cut much shorter than regular bangs and never touch the eyebrows. Their impact comes from that strip of open forehead and the straight line, so a perfectly straight, symmetrical cut matters. The rest of the hair can stay long or be paired with a short cut like a bob.
On oval, heart-shaped and diamond faces, they make the features and brows stand out, and on a long face they break up the forehead to balance proportions. Because they’re so short, they grow out of shape quickly and need a trim every two to three weeks. Growing them out also takes time, which makes trying them first especially important.
Who do micro bangs suit?
They look best on oval, heart-shaped and diamond faces with defined brows and balanced features. Still, they look different on every face, so trying them on your own photo is the most reliable test.
What happens when micro bangs grow out?
Within a few weeks they turn into classic blunt bangs. At that point you can keep them as blunt bangs or move on to curtain bangs.
