I think straight bangs look awesome on Kim Kardashian, but she would probably look good even if she were bald. Regardless, Kim inspired me to try this look out for myself.
I was really nervous about getting straight bangs because I had a terrible experience with them when I was younger. Throughout my elementary school years I had that typical Asian bowl cut hairstyle which I strongly disliked.
I remember asking my mother many times if I could grow my hair and bangs out but she always insisted that long hair was hard to maintain. The worst part was that my hair was very wavy when I was a child, so my bangs often parted in the middle and curled away from each other in warmth and humidity, making it look like I had a mustacheon my forehead. I was even called Octopus Head by my little “friends” because they said my hair looked like curly tentacles. But regardless of that awful time in my life, I took the plunge when I got my hair cut two weeks ago. And here’s how it turned out:
It took a lot to convince me to get this cut. My hair started straightening out when I was in my teens, and now that I am an adult, it’s almost completely straight. But it still took me YEARS to finally have the guts to get straight bangs again. When I first got them two weeks ago, I thought that they weren’t bad but was pretty sure that I was going to push them back to one side after a few days. But as days go by and my bangs get a little bit fuller and longer, I am actually starting to love them!
What do you, Lovelies think? Do you like straight bangs? Would you get them yourself?

They are perfecttt! I have weird hair, so no matter what bangs I have (and I have to have bangs, because believe me, my forehead is MASSIVE) they always kind of piece together and straighten out to look really bad. Can we switch hair?!

you look beautiful
guest
I think they suit your delicate features very well and that you’re MUCH prettier than Kim Kardashian.
guest
you’re definitely one of those girls that can pull off the straight bangs
I havent had straight bangs since I was 10. I’ve always had side bangs
guest
Very pretty! I know what you mean about the bangs dividing in warm weather! I use to have my bangs like yours are now, just a little shorter, and when they grew too long they’d split and look weird! And if I got them too short, they made me looks like spock from star trek! Now I’m growing my bangs out because I figured it’d be easier lol.
You look very beautiful!

Wow, you’re very pretty!

i think you will look good on bleaching your hair too.
guest
I think you would be cute with any hairstyle.
guest
it looks great on you. i tried it last year after years of having it as a kid, but unfortunately, i didn’t really like it and ended up sweeping it back to the side.
guest
You rock em girl! Personally, I don’t think they’d look good on me. Some people can pull them off, but I don’t think they are for everyone!
guest
You look great!

@ohveryoung@xanga - Aww thanks! But that’s not true… I have a large head so I’d look like an alien if I was bald.
.
@pikaaa - Thanks! My hair likes to piece together too. I always have to use my fingers to separate them and even them out.
@prettykay04@xanga - Thank you! You’re too sweet.
@Ampbreia@xanga - Wow that is impossible but thank you!!!
@phuck_diz_shiz@xanga - Thank you! I had side swept bangs for about 10 years too! I think they go with any face shape and guys tend to think it’s sexy!
@mypandabear@xanga - Thank you!!! I think you look great with long bangs. The way they fall on your face is very sexy.
@faerie_dustx - Thank you!!!
@annamariuhh@xanga - Thanks
@WaitingToShrug@xanga - Aww thank you!
@crazysogul@xanga - Haha, I did that when I was younger. I prefer au naturel now.
@Beb3Lika@xanga - Yea one of the great things with getting straight bangs is that you can always push them back to one side if you don’t like them.. That’s why I wasn’t too worried when I first got them.
@Erika_Steele@xanga - Aww thank you!
@kinseydanielle@xanga - Thank you!
@cryholy@xanga - Thank you!!!
@JandJinJapan@xanga - Aww thanks!

Girl, you could do anything to your hair and still look gorgeous. You’re beautiful. This cut really does accentuate that though, framing your eyes = nice touch.

The bangs suit you. I think you look really pretty. I had bangs like yours but I’m currently trying to grow it out. If only I looked half as good with the bangs as you. *sigh*

You’re way hotter than that Kim Kardashian woman. X20.

WOW THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR KIND RESPONSES! You are way too nice! I guess bangs suit me because I have a huge head and they make my face seem smaller, lol. Anyway, I totally did not expect that people would like this! You guys are absolutely awesome — you made my day!
guest
the bangs are alright. terrible tops though. throw it out of the closet. seriously.
guest
I’m a bit of a sucker for straight bangs so I am just gonna say you look fantastic
guest
Love it!
guest
Dam girl, so pretty, i’m jealous DX
But it really looks good. So your hair was wavy but it turned straight later? o.O Mine curls out at the ends so I can’t keep bangs… even though i really want bangs x_X

@verified_but_still_denied@xanga - @erikabows@xanga - Thank you!!!
@Yukihimekumiko@xanga - Thanks! Yea, my hair straightened out by itself when I got older. It’s strange.. I’m still trying to figure out why. It still isn’t pin straight but but it’s a lot straighter than before.. I had big S waves! Imagine having S waves on my straight bangs with a middle part.. haha, that was me. Anyway, have you thought about investing in a good hair straightener? It can easily tame any bangs!

@MimleFruits@xanga - Ohh, super lucky! My hair evolved from bouncy ringlets to messy curls/ waves. I have a straightening iron that i rely on far too much. My natural hair is too hideous to leave in that state so I iron it every time i wash it or it gets wet (which, as expected leads to damage.) And the problem is, it goes wavy again after being exposed to the slightest amount of moisture or humidity, which is abundant where i live. I’m now in the process of growing my hair out (before, it was usually at or slightly past my shoulders) in hopes that it gets weighed down a bit. I just have to suffer until there’s a way to alter my genes…haha
