I recently decided to let my bangs grow out and I discovered that they were annoying during their “in between” length phase! They hung in my face until they were long enough to tuck behind my ear. Have you made the decision to let your bangs grow? Here are three different ways to keep them out of your face:

Headbands: Headbands get a bad rap, but they are the easiest way to brush pesky stray hairs out of your face! J.Crew has some great options, and don’t overlook chains like Claires to find a headband at the right price.

Mini Pompadour: Pull your bangs out of your face and create a cute little bump that can look effortless for daytime or dramatic for nighttime. First, tease your bangs to give your hair volume. Then, pull them back behind your crown. Secure with bobby pins or a mini barrette. Spray with Fixx™ Volumizing Boost Spray.

Twist: An easy, yet elegant way to move your bangs out of your face is to twist them. Simply twist strands of hair, picking up a few more strands with each twist. Move down and away from your face. Secure with bobby pins or a tiny clip. For even more drama, try a braid instead of a twist.
