A semi-circle bang: varieties, techniques of execution and tips of stylists

Probably there is not a single woman in the world who would not ponder the question of whether she needs a bang. It is worth noting that this question is quite serious, because the general concept of not only hair, but the whole look as a whole directly depends on the presence or absence of this important element. Beautifully decorated strands of hair near the face can both transform your image for the better, or negate all efforts to create an attractive image. In this regard, making a decision about what form you will have a bang, and whether it will be at all, you need to think very carefully about your entire image. For clarity, you can use special graphic editors, for example, the Photoshop program, to try on different images and stop the choice on the best option, emphasizing your natural beauty and hiding small flaws.

Today, the conversation will go about one of the options for cutting bangs - a semicircle. Hairstyles with an emphasis on semi-circular bangs were relevant at all times, and even now they remain at the peak of modern fashion.

Strands, trimmed in the shape of a semicircle, always attract attention. With such an interesting detail in appearance, you no longer need to create additional accents in the form of bright makeup or fancy decorations. That is why a bang in a semicircle is so loved by the fair sex and is not going to give up their positions, despite the appearance of new forms of haircuts.

In order for the bang to look spectacular, there is an important condition - Your hair should be thick and well groomed. Masters of hairdressing art with confidence declare that the semicircular cut of the strands is well suited to almost any type of facial structure.

Let's take a closer look at when and for what you can use the semicircular bangs:

• smoothes angular facial contours with strongly protruding cheekbones, massive angular chin;

• helps to balance the overall impression when the triangular structure of the face, when there are wide zygomatic arches and a pointed chin;

• gives the face a more elongated appearance, if it has the shape of a circle;

• helps to correct too high forehead;

• focuses on the shape of the eyebrows and emphasizes the eyes;

• completely hides wrinkles on the forehead and distracts attention from the wrinkles near the eyes.

As you can see, one bang can solve many problems. It is important only to choose the optimal length and make a neat, even cut. This is a very important point, as any irregularities will immediately be evident and spoil the impression of the whole hairstyle as a whole. One of the nuances of such bangs is the fact that it grows very quickly and within a month you will need a correction. That's just not all get in time to visit the master, and then many women themselves take up the scissors. The results of such an action without certain skills may be unpredictable.

The length of the semicircular bangs can vary: it can close the eyebrows, rise one or two centimeters above the eyebrows, or it may even be short, being about the middle of the forehead. It all depends on the shape of the face, its advantages or disadvantages, as well as the ideas of the master to create your image. This design strands of hair are often combined with a wide variety of hairstyles and even with long hair. Equally well the semicircular shape will look with smooth hair or contrasted with curly curls. In any case, the oval bang will look interesting and attractive.

The use of semicircular bangs is widely used not only for women's hairstyles. Modern models of male haircuts often and very successfully use this form, creating a naughty and unusual image. Most often, these haircuts are chosen by young people who are not afraid to experiment with their appearance. In addition, quite often in a semicircle make up the strands in the face and in children's variants of haircuts - this technique looks equally good in both boys and girls. Moreover, the semi-circular bang is suitable for short, medium and even long types of children's haircuts.

Semicircular bangs can be performed in different ways, so there are some types of execution of this manipulation.

• Arch-shaped - it can be made an arc with a rather sharp radius in the center of the forehead or the arch is made soft, almost parallel to the eyebrow line with a smooth curve in the temples.

• Bangs with elongated side strands - This is one of the most feminine forms and it creates a very romantic image. The shape of it is made in the form of an arch, while the side strands smoothly into the overall array of hair and almost merge with it.

• Arc shape - the most traditional and universal; when performing it is important to determine how deep the cut will be made. As a rule, such an arc is made smooth, without abrupt transitions of the central part relative to the lateral parts of the bangs. The arc can be curved, almost round or concave and rounded at the edges at the temples.

• Oval shape - it can be oblique, asymmetrical, sparse, as well as thick and long. Oval bangs are able to perfectly combine with haircuts, made in the technique of "cascade", as well as with the classic "square" or "bean."

The most advantageous and volumetric look semicircular bangs from those whom nature has endowed with thick and fluffy hair. But even if you do not have such a rich head of hair, a semicircular cut will visually add to the bangs of volume and density.

The regrown round bang looks somewhat untidy and urgently needs correction. You can trim your hair at home, on your own. But before you start cutting, you need to prepare the necessary equipment.

• Well sharpened straight scissors. Best of all, if it will be special hairdressing scissors purchased in a specialty store. Office scissors cut straight cut you will be quite difficult.
• Comb with a "tail" for the separation of strands and frequent teeth.
• Hairdressing clips for hair.
• Hair filing scissors.
• Spray bottle with water.

Before you begin the process of cutting, you need to wash and dry hair. It will be very difficult for a non-professional to cut completely dry strands, so they need to be slightly dampened.However, one very important point should be remembered, on which the success of the whole manipulation depends - after the cropped hair dries, it becomes a bit shorter, therefore choosing the optimal length of the strands you need to remember this circumstance and add about one centimeter to the desired length of the finished bang. Exactly the same increase in the length of the strands must be done for curly or wavy hair.

Now you can go to the technique of execution.

• Determine the density of bangs and find a place for parting. Thickness will directly depend on how much your bangs go deep into, and the higher it rises to the point of the crown, the visually it will appear thicker. We separate the strand, which we will cut and make two more side partings on the right and left - so we outlined the contours of the future bangs. The rest of the hair should be fastened with clips so that they do not interfere.
• Now we need to finally decide on the width. It is not necessary to cut off the bang on the principle "from one ear to the other." It looks sloppy and too simple. In the fashion world, it is now important to make a semicircular cut, which closes the forehead at a distance of 0.5 cm below the eyebrow line. Then there is a slight lengthening of the strands, which starts from the end of the eyebrow and up to the temple - this section is clipped at an angle, leading to a soft and smooth line so that in general you will have an arched arch.
• During the shearing process, the strands must be taut, fastened between the fingers. Sometimes, if there are no good skills and undeveloped eye, you can use a pre-prepared cardboard template - this will greatly simplify the process of cutting.
• Now you need to properly comb all the strands and cut off the loose individual hairs flush with the rest of the bristle hair. If you want to add volume, profile the ends of the strands with thinning scissors.

Care for semicircular bangs, especially if it is performed on straight hair, is quite simple and does not require any special devices and skills. We apply any styling product to wet hair, distribute it along the entire length of the strands and prepare them for drying with a hairdryer using hot air. To make a beautiful volume and bend the tips of the fringe inside, you will need a round brush for styling. Choose the diameter of the brush should be guided by the thickness of the hair. The thicker your bang, the larger the diameter of the brush to choose, then after drying the strands will look really natural and beautiful.

You can dry a semicircular bang without creating additional volume. In this case, the round brush is not used, and the drying of the strands is carried out using a special so-called skeletal hairbrush. With its help strands are raised slightly and after drying they return to their original position.

After you have dried your bangs, switch the hairdryer to cold air and cool your hair properly. This must be done in order to keep the strands as long as possible to retain their shape. Now you can fix the result with the help of varnish, and the hairstyle is ready. Look at yourself in the mirror - you are adorable!

Professionals of hairdresser's art advise not to use strong or superstrong lacquers when fixing the form of the bangs. This frozen monumental structure looks very unnatural and ugly. It is best to fix the strands with styling mousses or foams. Then your bangs will remain mobile, lively and will look organically against the background of the rest of the hair mass in the hairstyle.

If you have naturally wavy or curly hair, but you really want to become the owner of a clearly made semicircular bang, before you cut it, you need to take care of hair straightening. This can be done using a special electric smoothing ironing or resort to more radical methods - keratin straightening. On even and smooth hair, semi-circular bangs with clear cut lines look very impressive and impressive.

You can liven up your hair using various hairpins, headbands and ribbons that adorn your bangs. Stylists are advised to use the colors of accessories that contrast with your hair color, or select their shades in tune with the basic dress that you wear to create a single, visually harmonious image. Additionally, you can decorate your hair with dyeing, highlighting or various types of toning. This will help add emphasis to your look and make it more expressive and memorable.

Quite interestingly, straight semicircular bangs with curly hair of the main hairstyle are combined. Such a contrast makes the bangs stand out from the total mass of the hair and makes the entire emphasis on its adjusted and precise form.
