The micro pony is back: Who suits short bangs?

Celebrities are always confidently experimenting with different hair colors and hair lengths. The length of the bangs also varies enormously. The precisely cut micro bangs from the fifties like those of Audrey Hepburn in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” have been celebrating a comeback since 2018 and are increasingly being worn by young, urban trendsetters. In today's article you will find out who suits short bangs and what you should consider with this bold cut.

Very short bangs (or micro bangs) are ideally only suitable for one face shape - any hairstyle suits an oval face. If your face is round, square or heart-shaped and has prominent facial features, it is better to avoid the graphic bangs. It will cover only half of your forehead, emphasizing both the advantages of the face and its shortcomings.

Another problem: the micro bangs on curly hair are difficult to tame. For this, you might need long-term hair straightening.

Care for your short bangs properly

The bangs grow faster than the rest of the hair and need to be trimmed every two weeks on average. Hegets greasy fasterand loses all volume after a short time. The reasons for this are creams, make-up, skin oil and sweat, and finally our own fingers, with which we constantly stroke the hair into shape.

If you wash your hair every day, there will be no special changes in hair care for you. However, if you wash your hair every 2-3 days or less often (for long hair), you need to get into the habit of washing the bangs every day. Otherwise the hairstyle will look weak.

Short bangs also require styling

Be prepared for the fact that even perfectly cut micro bangs will require daily styling. On the one hand, this is good: you can try out different styling options by choosing a smooth, straight or wavy one depending on your mood.Bangs pushed to the sidecan have. On the other hand, you need enough time for hair styling.

The most important styling products you need to style bangs are gel, hair mousse, hair lacquer, hair wax and dry shampoo. However, you should only use these moderately, otherwise they will weigh down your hair. Too many styling products will quickly cause your hair to lose its beautiful volume - creating a vicious circle that will cause your hair to suffer.

To get the bangs into the desired shape, all you need is a dab of hair gel. The amount of hair mousse or wax for styling should be the size of a pea. In some cases, for example after a long flight, a dry shampoo will help quickly refresh your hair and add volume to the bangs.

The most popular hairstyles with short bangs of the season:

Short bangs that cover about half of the forehead - the trend is not new, but it is interpreted in a modern way. Just a year or even two years ago, models walked the catwalk with bangs like this. Whether straight cut, slightly asymmetrical and even brightly colored - there are numerous options for girls and women who like that touch of “grunge” style. The micro pony is also enjoying increasing popularity in 2019.

Straight short bangs

Thick and smooth, this type of pony has a clear geometry and is ideal forelongated face shapes. The full bangs make it possible to visually balance the proportions of a rectangular and square face shape. It is equally suitable for long and short hairstyles.

Ripped Baby Bangs

This trend is much less well known, but can still be seen on the catwalks. Eccentric and unusual, such a hairstyle visually rejuvenates the face. Depending on the angle at which the hair is cut, the micro bangs can appear less noticeable or glamorous. The steps soften the often striking facial features of a square, round and triangular face shape.

Wavy bangs

Add a touch of playfulness to your hairstyle. With this look, the ends of the hair can be turned both classically inwards and outwards. This is best achieved with a curling iron or curlers. Symmetry is not important here. The messier the curls, the better. If you want to stand out from the crowd, this look is the right choice.

Don't want to have your bangs cut?

Another solution for those who are not ready for long-term changes is to imitate micro bangs. Stylists suggest playing with your hair, like in our childhood. The role of “optical illusion” will be played by a hair bun, which is tied not on top of the head (like a top knot), but almost on the forehead. The look appears rebellious, stylish and feminine at the same time. An absolute plus: even owners of short hair can create “bangs” like this.
