#2: Choppy Thick Bangs

A shag cut with choppy bangs is perfect for thick-haired women with natural curls and waves. You could use a curling iron to help create texture and add layers. It will give your hairstyle an effortless, yet polished look. To emphasize the choppy bangs, work in some sea salt spray while blow-drying them away from your face. A benefit of this style is that it can be tailored to each individual’s unique hair type and face shape.

#3 Soft Rounded Fringe for Medium Locks

This soft rounded fringe is tailored to complement a medium-length hairstyle, gently curving around the face for a subtle, graceful frame. It’s a fantastic choice for those who prefer a fringe that isn’t overpowering but still provides structure and style. The lightweight layers give movement, making it suitable for those with straight to wavy hair textures. While this cut offers a refreshing update, it does require regular trims to maintain the rounded shape of the bangs, which is vital for preserving the look. The styling is straightforward; a round brush and a light hairspray can uphold the fringe’s shape throughout the day.

Long Wavy Hair with Wispy Textured Fringe on Woman

#4 Beachy Waves with Wispy Textured Fringe

This hairstyle embodies a laid-back elegance with its long, wavy texture and a light, wispy fringe that falls softly around the eyes. It’s an excellent option for those with naturally wavy hair looking to add playfulness to their style without the commitment of a full, blunt fringe. While the waves offer a voluminous silhouette, the feathered fringe keeps the look approachable and easy to manage. It’s important to note that this style might require a curl-enhancing product to maintain the waves and trim now and then to keep the fringe from overpowering your facial features. For styling, a wide-barreled curling iron can enhance the waves, and a light tousling will blend the fringe flawlessly.

#5: Choppy and Arched Bangs

Choppy and arched bangs are the perfect addition to long, fine hair to add texture and movement. This style is achieved with weight removed from the sides to avoid a severe look. All while keeping the length intact to maintain the natural flow of the hair. The benefits of this style are that it not only adds dimension but highlights facial features. This look is perfect for women with longer hair who want to add edge and interest. Consider using a texture spray to style your hair to show off your layers.

#6: Peachy Color and Thin Fringe

To add interest to your fine hair, consider a peachy color with a thin fringe. The peachy hue is a soft and feminine option that complements many skin tones. Pairing it with a thin fringe adds an element of sophistication to the look and will avoid making it too severe. This style is great for those with fine hair as it adds texture and movement to otherwise flat locks. To maintain the look, I recommend using a color-safe shampoo and conditioner to prevent fading. As for styling, use a volumizing mousse at the roots and blow dry your fringe using a round brush.

#7: Modern See-Through Fringe

Are you an older woman who wants a chic and fresh update on your hairstyle? A sleek bob cut with a modern see-through fringe is worth a try. The fringe adds a softness and youthful touch to the bob. It frames the face and brings attention to the eyes. This cut works best for those with straight or wavy hair. But it can also be achieved with some styling tools and products. To maintain a smooth and polished look, blow-drying with a round brush is recommended. A texturizing spray or cream can help create separation and movement for a subtle finish.

#8: Feathered Face-Framing Fringe Bangs

Ask for bottleneck bangs. They create a soft face-framing effect that covers the forehead and tapers down the brows. The best way to cut these is with a razor or slide cutting for a wispy effect.

#10: Amazing Red Hair with See-Through Bangs

If you’re looking to add bangs to your textured cut, my best advice is to ask your stylist for see-through bangs. The feathered ends give a more defined look. The shape of a curtain bang gives a short to long effect and blends into your layered cut. If you can get through the first week of training, they are really easy to style.

One of the simplest ways to beautifully frame your face is to try a wispy fringe with balayage. Ask for more or less texture in your bangs depending on the look you want. Balayage is a great way to brighten your face and bangs frame your face, making them a great combination.

#14: Edgy Pixie Mullet with Fringe

Ask for an edgy pixie mullet with fringe if you want a trendy new look. I suggest talking to your hairstylist about having them use a razor to cut your style. The razor will give the ends of your hair a soft, wispy, and textured appearance. To style, simply blow-dry your hair and then use a texture spray or paste to fingerstyle.

#15: Full Curtain Bangs on a Mid-Length Cut

Wear full curtain bangs if you already have a mid-length cut. This feathered, Bardot style fringe is wonderful for adding softness to your face. Pair your bangs with lots of layers to turn your look into the perfect modern shag.

The cut requires a light trim every 12 weeks to keep it fresh.
