Having your bangs curl up is also a nightmare for some girls. If you do it deliberately like Korean girls do it can be very trendy and give off Sailor Moon vibes! These bangs are unique, youthful and look more playful than straight bangs. You can curl your bangs in an S-shape with a big curling iron or curl them inwards with a smaller curling iron to achieve the look on the second picture.

Try curly bangs if:

- You're not scared of trying something unique

- You want to go for a feminine, dolly look

- You want to draw attention away from your wide forehead

Unlike the most common thick, straight and tidy bangs, the Korean air bangs are longer but thinner and reveal a little of your forehead and eyebrows. This hairstyle is very slimming and also creates a youthful and playful look. The downside is that they're blown out of shape easily so if you live in a windy country this might not be the best option for you!

Try air bangs if:

- You want your face to appear slimmer and longer

- You want to try bangs yet show off your nice eyebrows

- Your hair doesn't get greasy

- You like to try bangs but your hair is too thin for standard bangs.
