Help! What do I do with my bangs?
Though people who’ve met me in recent years would never know it, I was a bangs kinda girl all my life—until five years ago. A few weeks ago, I decided I needed a change (super unlike me!) and I went back to bangs. But now, I’m not so sure it was a smart move.
What do I do?
I loved them when I first got them and my fab LOULOU gals loved the look, too. All in all, the new me got a positive response. But lately, I feel like they just aren’t me anymore. Am I just having difficulty getting used to the idea of a new ‘do or are bangs just not for me?
I saw a pic of Heidi Klum’s bangs and she looked fantabulous! Well, I want great hair, too! So I leave the decision to you. What do you guys think? Leave the bangs or grow them out? (Joanna, I am totally in need of your expert beauty advice.)

I think with a full bang you look like Anne Hathaway from the devil wears prada, it’s a really nice look for you. And i think if you keep a full bang you can always style it to be a side bang. But i would definately keeps bangs altogether, whether they are a full bang or a side bang, bangs add a nice feminine touch, and take away the harshness of middle parts and big foreheads =)

OMG! Nicole… you really know your stuff. I agree…some sort of bangs are necessary because of the forehead. Maybe a little bit of both worlds is the answer for me. Thanks!

Keep the bangs, woman!!! I see you every day so I know they look totally good on you
But remember, you have to love it too. If you’re really unconfortable and you wanna grow them back, then go for it. You look beautiful either way!

I absolutely love love love the bangs on you! It gives you this super sexy, yet sophisticated look. Keep them a little while longer and if you really get fed up, as Nicole already suggested, the side bang is a great alternative! I’m a fan!

Keep em!

I say keep them. Nothing helps bring in the new spring season and summer, than a new do. If the whole bangs look goes out of style, then you just toss’em to the side.
Simple, no?

I think you look great both ways (maybe a little biased). Keep them until they start to drive you crazy and then grow them out.

You look pretty both ways but if you keep the bangs you should add a little more and make them a touch thicker. Then you’ll have the “great hair” you’re looking for!

What an overwhelming response. Looks like the bangs are a keeper. Thanks everyone

You look beautiful either way! Keep them for a while longer, and when your fed up go back. For now embrace the fact that you finally took a risk!
