Are you tired of your thick and heavy bangs? Do you want to thin them out without spending money at the salon? Thinning your own bangs with regular scissors is easier than you think. In this article, we will guide you through the process of thinning bangs with regular scissors step by step.
Description
Thinning bangs with regular scissors is a simple technique to reduce the bulkiness of your hair. It involves cutting small sections of hair at a time to create a softer and more natural look. This technique is ideal for those who have thick hair or want to add more texture to their bangs.
How to Thin Bangs with Regular Scissors
Before you start, make sure you have the following tools:
- Regular scissors
- Comb
- Hair clips
Step 1: Wet your bangs with water or a spray bottle to make them easier to manage.
Step 2: Section off your bangs from the rest of your hair using hair clips. Take a small section of hair at a time to work on.
Step 3: Hold the section of hair between your index and middle fingers. Slide your fingers down towards the ends of your hair, leaving about an inch unheld.
Step 4: Use the scissors to make small snips into the unheld section of hair. Cut at an angle instead of straight across to create a more natural look.
Step 5: Release the section of hair and comb through it to see how much hair has been removed. Repeat steps 3-4 until you have achieved your desired thickness.
Tips
- Start with small snips and work your way up to avoid cutting too much hair at once.
- Cut at an angle for a more natural look.
- Take breaks to step away from the mirror to see how your bangs look in natural lighting.
- Don't cut too much hair off, as it is easier to cut more later than to wait for it to grow back.
