New season, new bangs? For those who’re feeling the itch, attempt U bangs, already worn and beloved by Jennifer Lawrence, Mia Goth, and Jenna Ortega.
This minimize is summed up in its identify. U bangs are a softly curved tackle curtain bangs, with either side resembling an inverted U form. In the case of the precise minimize, the bangs are shorter within the midsection (suppose the center of the brow) and step by step get longer towards the temples, forming an arc above the face. This form, says movie star hairstylist and Shark ambassador Chris Appleton, is a part of the minimize’s magic. “Individuals are realizing that they’ll carry the looks of their face with the proper minimize and styling,” he tells me. “The U form, like a extra delicate tackle Farrah Fawcett’s look, undoubtedly lifts the cheekbones.”
The key—to essentially any good haircut, Appleton continues—is to by no means cover your cheeks and cheekbones. “Overlaying your cheekbones removes the contours of the face,” he advises. “As an alternative, minimize your layers and bangs to focus on and expose your face form. I like to chop bangs simply above or on the cheekbone in order that, when styled, they expose it. And U bangs are the common bang of bangs.”
