Getting Bangs Is A Big Fall 2022 Hair Trend.
Yes, you read that right, the 2022 fall season is going to be all about bangs. Whether you are wearing your hair long, medium, or short, and no matter your preferred style, there is a bang cut that will compliment your look and give you this trending look.
Bangs are big in 2022, and there are plenty of bang trends to choose from this year. Bangs are a great way to change up your look and can work for all hair types and face shapes. And, contrary to popular belief, bangs can actually be low maintenance!
What types of bangs are in style? For 2022, we're seeing a lot of loose and tousled looks, choppy layers, and face-framing cuts. The bangs that pair with these hairstyles follow suit. Think textured fringe, curtain bangs, and wispy pieces that perfectly complement your face.
Bangs for women over 50
Bangs are back and they're for everybody. Sure, curtain bangs are trending at the moment, but there's also blunt bangs, shaggy bangs, feathered bangs, baby bangs…the list goes on.
Side bangs tend to soften facial features that get harsh with age and bring attention to your eyes. This style of bangs will also help you to avoid your hair from falling flat.
And while many are still sporting the bangs, its popularity has definitely declined. But, bangs aren't going anywhere in 2022. So if you're thinking about growing out your curtain bangs to get rid of them, stop you right there.
“The shag— or super layered hair cut— is the trend,” says Saviano. “It works on almost every hair texture and length, and you can even style this look with or without bangs. It gives off a cool, low maintenance vibe, and truly brings out the best of natural hair texture, as the layered cut gives the hair movement.”
According to this season's street stylers, the best fall fashion colors in 2022 are bright and beautiful, from head-to-toe oranges and zesty lime greens to classic autumnal browns and grays.
Consider your hair texture
“If your hair is fine or thin, a heavy fringe may not work because there isn't enough weight for the hair to lay in place. Thick hair may have trouble with a baby bangs because it would need to be thinned out a lot to lay flat.
Bangs can add a youthful quality to your face by making it appear smaller. But be careful to not have a bang that is too short. You want your bangs to come down long enough over your forehead so they don't accentuate any fine lines around your eyes.
While blunt bangs can make round faces look a little squat, side-swept bangs move the eyes diagonally across your face. The angled fringe helps make your face appear longer and, therefore, thinner.
"Soft bangs are a hot trend for 2023, with celebs like Anne Hathaway, Lily Collins, and Phoebe Dynevor rocking their own spins on the classic," says Velasquez.
Bangs are your friend
As you get older bangs become more important. Not only can they hide your wrinkles but they can also cover up a receding hair line, a long forehead and also bring a youthful appearance to your face. Of course they can't be too short and they also don't have to be straight.
Loose waves are more younger-looking, while straight hair can be aging. Play around with face-framing layers to give your hair some softness and movement. Layers can also make your hair appear to be more luscious and healthy. Parra recommends asking your stylist for perimeter layers that are cut in a straight line.
If you don't find these trendy middle-parted styles as flattering for your face shape, rejoice! Side bangs and side parts are no longer considered passé. The resurgence of side bangs in 2022 points to the fading of the supposed Gen Z vs Millenial battle of opinions when it comes to what is “cool” in hairstyles.
“The most flattering bangs create an oval face shape,” says Townsend. So, if you naturally have an ovular face, you have a larger variety of bang styles to choose from. If your face is square or oblong, “You'll want to try A-shaped bangs or longer layers,” he says.
The answer to the question is a resounding yes! Bangs are fun and youthful, sure, but they're also sophisticated and look good on everyone, whether your hair is curly, straight, short, long, or in between. The important thing is to find a style of bangs that works for you and your lifestyle.
If You Have a Long Face and/or High Forehead: This face shape is similar to the oval-shaped, but the forehead, cheeks and jawline are all the same width. To complement this face shape, don't get baby bangs because they will further elongate your face.
Some people say that bangs never make a woman look older. Others claim they are not age-appropriate for seniors. The truth is somewhere in the middle: a fringe can upgrade your look if designed right or ruin it if cut improperly. We've found 30 flattering pictures that prove bangs for older women work too!
Bangs can be flattering for any face shape if they are the right ones. A side-swept bang looks great on round or square faces. Straight across bangs look good on heart-shaped or oval faces.
