Bangs Are Back!

A striking yet sophisticated look

 

It's official! Bangs are back and making a statement that we know only hair can do. This new trend can suit any style you carry. Whether is be straight, curly or wavy hair. A bold fringe such as the bang can be worn with loose hair or tied up like the beautiful Michele Lea has done. We love the way her bangs fall to eyelash level and bring out those cat shaped brown eyes. A style like this needs a trim every few weeks, but this look proves to be so worth the upkeep. To achieve such a bold fringe, ask your hair stylist to cut the fringe while your hair is dry. Doing this allows for you to be able to see how your hair falls when you'll need to do it alone at home. To keep your fringe looking fresh with a shine everyday, wash your fringe when you wash your hair each morning. This allows for you to have a bold looking bang everyday, without having to wash your hair.

Jessica Biel’s Perfect Fringe

Jessica Biel is always gorgeous, but this cut shows off her features in a whole new way.  The brow-dusting fringe and soft, piece-y length accentuate her eyes and cheekbones, while the hand-painted highlights brings dimension and brightness to the look. The combination of rich brown, caramel and gold perfectly sets off the fluid lengths of her wavy tresses.

Step: Ask your Lattouf Hair & Day Spa stylist for a razored one-length cut with a square fringe. Ask your colorist for hand-painted highlights along with the mid-shafts and ends, and tailored to the shape of the cut.

Step: Apply styling whip to the entire length for body and moisture. Dry the bangs with a flat brush, wrapping the hair back and forth to create smoothness.

Step: Dry the rest of the hair with fingers to encourage a natural texture. Finish with cream wax for added separation.

Kate Middleton Get Banged Up

Kate Middleton Gets Banged Up

Princess of hearts, Kate Middleton, was spotted wearing a new hairdo at yesterday’s opening of the Treasures Gallery at the Natural History Museum, London. We think her new bangs help her look more modern, less matronly. Her tresses are almost always voluminous and tousled, but now she’s got more attention on eyes, and a better frame for her pretty features. For tips on getting your own great bangs, click style notes. 

Step: Bangs can be side-swept or straight, blunt or soft, narrow or wide. Talk to your stylist about the perfect match for your style. Go in for a trim every two weeks to keep them looking good.

Step: A good tip for blow drying bangs: Mist with KEVIN.MURPHY SESSION.SPRAY, then blow dry side to side with comb, and then straight down. This will give you a smooth, bubble free bang with lots of shine.

Step: Like Kate, add tousle and flow to your style by finishing with a few twists of a curling iron on the ends.

We recommend KEVIN.MURPHY LOVES CORTEX CURLING IRONS.
