Slanted bangs are a stylish look for those who are tired of the usual flat bangs. Slanted bangs are suitable for hair of all textures and look cute on all face types. In this article, you can learn how to style oblique bangs using a hairdryer, a hair straightener, or by drying naturally.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Using a Hair Dryer
Step 1. Tie your hair back
Since you're only styling your bangs, you'll want to tie up the rest of the hair so it doesn't interfere with your slanted bangs. Use a comb to separate the rest of your hair from the bangs, then remove it from your face with bobby pins or a hair band.
Step 2. Wet the bangs
You can style your bangs after you're done showering or spraying them. Tie up the remaining hair so you don't get it wet, then spray the bangs with water. Use a towel to dry it so it doesn't get soaked.
Step 3. Dry your hair with a blow dryer
Wrap the bangs in a round ceramic comb and twist the comb as you dry. Use a higher heat setting on the dryer to get shiny, straight hair. A lower heat level will give your bangs more texture.
Step 4. Comb your bangs
When the bangs are dry, use a brush comb or a toothed comb to brush them through and give them some volume. If desired, put a small amount of mousse or anti-frizz serum on your hands and rub it into your bangs.
- Don't use too much serum on your bangs as this can make them look greasy.
- If you want your bangs to look even, rather than voluminous, don't puff it up.
Step 5. Pull the bangs to the side
Using your fingers or the tip of a comb, pull the ends of the bangs to the sides. Bangs will look so beautiful if pulled in the opposite direction from the parting.
Method 2 of 3: Using a Straightening Tool
Step 1. Pull the hair back
Use a comb to separate your bangs from the rest of your hair and tie them in with bobby pins or a hair band to keep them away from your face. Comb the bangs forward to prep them before styling.
Step 2. Heat the iron
Plug in the hair straightener and allow it to heat thoroughly. If you use a high level of heat, the results will last longer and look smoother. A lower level of heat will give your hair more texture.
Step 3. Use the flat iron tool to style the bangs
Straighten the bangs starting from the roots with a hair straightener. Pull the ends of your hair in the direction you want them and twist your wrists slightly so that the ends of your hair bend inward toward your forehead. Remove the bangs when they reach the ends of your hair.
Step 4. Puff up your bangs
Use a comb or fingers to puff out the bangs in the direction you want. Adding a little volume will make the bangs look more natural.
Step 5. Keep the layout unchanged
Use mousse, hair gel or hairspray to keep the bangs pointing in the right direction.
Method 3 of 3: Letting Bangs Dry Alone
Step 1. Pull the hair back
Use a comb to separate your bangs from the rest of your hair. Tie it back away from your face with bobby pins or a hair band so you can focus on styling your bangs without the rest of your hair getting in the way.
Step 2. Wet the bangs
You can style it right after your shower or use a small bottle of water to spray so that your bangs are thoroughly wet. Dry it a little with a towel so it doesn't get soaked.
Step 3. Comb the bangs to the side
By combing the bangs to the side while they are still wet, the direction of the bangs does not change when they are dry. Use a comb to comb the bangs to the side, in the opposite direction of the parting.
- As your hair dries, continue to brush your bangs sideways every few minutes. Thus, the hair becomes dry in the right direction.
- You can apply a hair moisturizer that doesn't need to be rinsed off or other products to keep your bangs from changing direction as they dry.
Step 4. Puff up the bangs
When it's dry, give it a slightly puffy look with a comb to add a little volume. Use mousse, hair gel or hairspray so that the direction of the bangs does not change throughout the day.
