DIY Bang Trim A Step by Step Guide

If you're feeling brave and want to freshen up your look, cutting your bangs at home can be a cost-effective way to switch things up. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you achieve a successful DIY bang trim:

What You'll Need:

  • Sharp haircutting scissors

  • Fine-toothed comb

  • Hair clips

  • Mirror

Step 1: Prep Your Hair

Start by washing and drying your hair as you normally would. Ensure your bangs are dry before trimming to avoid any unexpected shrinkage.

Step 2: Section Your Bangs

Using the fine-toothed comb, part your bangs in the desired style and separate them from the rest of your hair. Secure the rest of your hair away from your face using hair clips.

Step 3: Determine the Length

Decide on the desired length for your bangs. It's always best to start longer as you can trim more if needed.

Step 4: Trim Your Bangs

Hold the scissors vertically and make small, slight cuts instead of chopping straight across. This technique helps to create a softer, more natural effect.

Step 5: Check for Symmetry

After each cut, step back and check for symmetry. Make small adjustments as needed to ensure both sides are even.

Step 6: Style Your Bangs

Once you're satisfied with the length, style your bangs as desired. You can blow-dry them or let them air dry.

Step 7: Final Touches

Use a texturizing spray or styling cream to add texture and shape to your newly trimmed bangs.

Remember, practice makes perfect, so don't be discouraged if it doesn't turn out exactly as planned the first time. If you're unsure or want a significant change, it's always best to seek a professional stylist.
