What are Shadow Bangs?
Shadow bangs feel modern and new, but they're actually just a refreshed version of the combination of the fuzziness of wispy bangs, the length of curtain bangs, and the shape of blunt-cut bangs. To see these bangs in action, check out Rihanna and Billie Eilish, who have both rocked this look.
Shadow bangs are also ideal for entering the world of fringes, as they are always a little longer. Instead of thick, short bangs, shadow bangs focus on eyebrow-grazing length, sheer strands, and lots of shape and movement.
Longer bangs are on the rise in fall and winter 2023/2024, not only because they're easier to style - and grow out - but also because they're more versatile than short baby bangs. You can wear your bangs fully styled or pull them back to create a completely different look.

Shadow bangs not only offer numerous styling options, but also have the great advantage of being able to adapt to any face shape. This makes them a suitable choice for any lady who has decided to enhance her look with these elegant and trendy bangs.
