Growing Out Your Bangs
Question: I am letting my bangs grow out. I don’t know what to do with them because they are not long enough to tuck behind my ears at this point. Are there some stylish ways to keep the bangs out of my face? I’m 36 and want a look that’s age appropriate, as well as appropriate for the office.
Answer: At 36, you probably don’t want to wear a wide statement headband to work, but a thin metallic or black hair band is a good option for keeping those in-between bangs off your face. Another option is pinning them to the side with matte bobby pins that match your hair color (mismatched ones look messy). Beauty supply shops like Ricky’s (rickysnyc.com for locations) offer them in every shade. Skip the jeweled or sequined accessories for work. Unless you work in a creative industry, anything too bold will probably distract people.
