The Best Bangs for Every Face Shape, According to a Celebrity Hairstylist
Getting bangs is a rite of passage in so many people’s lives, whether it’s done on a whim or after months of decision-making. Choosing your style is a big part of that journey, so a little bit of research never hurts. One of the benefits of bangs is how beautifully they frame your face, so it’s especially helpful to know what shape your face is. So, first things first: Identify your face shape(it’s easier than it sounds, promise).
Now you’re ready for step two: choosing your look. We turned to Moroccanoil Celebrity HairstylistBryce Scarlett—a.k.a. the man Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie, Brie Larson and pretty much every other A-lister trusts with their gorgeous hair—to help break down which fringe is best for each shape. Ahead, find your next hairstyle, along with celeb inspiration to screenshot and show your hairstylist. (Oh, and it goes without saying: It's best to go to a trained professional for bangs—or any big hair change—to avoid catastrophe.)
“Full, choppy, piecey bangs that extend from from lash-length to jawbone-length are perfect for round faces,” says Scarlett. Elizabeth Olsen demonstrates the look flawlessly, and Scarlett also cites Goldie Hawn’s iconic long bangs as a style reference.As expert bangs-wearer Dakota Johnson has proven time and time again, oval-shaped faces can wear pretty much any bangs style. Still, Scarlett has a favorite, explaining that “Longer, soft, side-swept bangs frame an oval-shaped face.”“A straight across, blunt-style bang is best for a heart-shaped face,” recommends Scarlett. Don’t be afraid to go bold—a strong chin and cheekbones balances the hairstyle, as Rashida Jones demonstrates.Embrace the curtain bang. “A center-parted, softly feathered ‘Bardot’ bang is most suitable for square-shaped faces,” explains Scarlett. Alexa Chung’s now-iconic soft bangs should be at the top of your Pinterest board.Yes, you can get bangs! “For smaller foreheads, recommend that the bangs start further back on the hairline to give the illusion of a larger forehead,” explains Scarlett. Hannah Simone's fringe is a perfect example; her blunt style is set slightly past her hairline to allow for a little extra length."Be sure to stock up on dry shampoo," recommends Scarlett. "Bangs tend to get greasy quickly from things like touching your forehead."Depending on your hair type, bangs can dry in some, well, interesting ways. A round brush helps keep them under control.Hair dryers are one of the world's great inventions, but they can be unwieldy. This smaller-than-average dryer makes it easier to target bangs.You'll want lots of pins around for those times you need them out of your face (or if you decide to grow them out).Keeping bangs in place sometimes requires a little patience—and hairspray. This one has plenty of hold and shine without being sticky or crunchy.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
