Hello Vintage Lovers!!!
Today I will be showing you how to cut your own Betty Bangs... or if you have a friend you can use this go to at home guide to cut the "Perfect" Betty Bangs!!
Tools you need:
* Styling comb
*Duckbill clips / or Butterfly clips
* Good Shears
*Water Bottle
****************************************
Lets get started!!
1) So first wet your hair in the front.
2) Determine how thick you want your bangs.( Betty Bangs are fairly thick) Section your "bang hair' in a triangle.
3) Clip The rest of your hair back
4) Now take your triangle section and split it in half.

Just realised I cant really show you while I'm actually cutting it @ the same time take a picture of it!! |
6) Now take a little bit of the section you cut and use that as your guide for the sides. Cut the temples a little shorter than the middle of the bang. To have the U effect
7) Sides already cut.

8) Now take the hair that you split in half down.

Hi there, I saw you did some posts on faceshapes and what cuts would suit. I'm not sure what mine is. I would LOVE your opinion on what cut/style would be best for me. My hair is fine and wispy and refuses to grow long.
ReplyDeletePS Don't judge my hair, I'm currently battling with a super-bad haircut. :(
Love Miss T Porkchop.
I'm growing out my Betty bangs, but I never could figure out how to cut them myself! I tried once with disastrous results.

Fun Bettie bang tip: cut that top layer slightly longer than the bottom layer so the are beveled. Mine laid so much better this way!
ReplyDeleteMiss Tallulah Porkchop-
ReplyDeleteI was looking at some on your pictures and I think your facial type is oval. So pretty much you can get away with lots of hair cuts! Right now I think your hair is pretty cute! Since your hair is fine a wispy I suggest Razor hair cuts.
Mabel : Awww :( Hopefuly this how to helped..
Hello Jodi : Yes that does helped expecaily if you have a cowlick. I have one and I had to do the same exact thing, the weigh it down.
Hiya!! I love your blog and this post made me think, what the heck! I cut my fringe. However, I do have very curly hair and I do straighten only the fringe so it can seem a bit severe. I'm sooooo happy with it though and its all thanks to you! xxx
