Steps

1. 1 Wash your hair. It is important to have clean hair before cutting. If your hair is messy or sticky, your bangs may not look the way you intended.
   • Don't come up with anything new before cutting. Use the same shampoo as always and wash your hair as long as usual.
2. 2 Dry your bangs with a hair dryer. You must blow dry your hair with a round brush to achieve the desired bangs look.
   • Be sure to dry each part of the bangs in the direction you want them to fall.
   • Make sure your hair is completely dry before you start cutting. If your hair is still damp, your new bangs may look a little short.
3. 3 Comb your bangs. Brushing the bangs with a flat comb can help you see the texture and straighten your hair before cutting.
   • Continue brushing your hair after every few cuts with a pair of scissors to get a better understanding of how your bangs are.
4. 4 Gather excess hair in the back. Remove hair that you don't want to get in the way so you can focus on the hair that needs to be trimmed.
   • If you have very thick hair, use a hair clip to hold the different layers of the bangs so that you can trim them a little at a time.
   • Tie up the rest of your hair in a ponytail at the back so it won't get in your way.

Method 1 of 2: Cutting your hair with scissors

1. 1 Choose the right scissors. Make sure you have scissors specifically designed for cutting your hair. Test them with a string to make sure they are in good working order.
2. 2 Tuck your bangs in the direction you want them to fall. This will give you an idea of ​​how much you want to cut your bangs. Trimming should start with cutting the hair at the tip of the nose, and then a bevel should be made starting at eye level and down to the cheekbones.
   • There is another technique that involves cutting the bangs on the opposite side to avoid cutting them too short. Decide which is more convenient for you.
3. 3 Handle one section of hair at a time. The strand should be about 2.5 cm wide, which is enough to work with.
   • Hold the strand slightly away from your forehead. This will make it easier to cut and prevent you from getting hurt.
4. 4 Start cutting. Begin to trim the hair into locks in small, slanting 1cm cuts until it looks beveled rather than rounded.
   • Cut carefully. Do not fully engage the scissors while cutting. Instead, gently squeeze the blades around your hair.
5. 5 Finish your haircut. Keep cutting strand by strand until you get to the longest part, and you end up with the angled bangs you wanted.
6. 6 Comb your hair one last time. Run the flat comb over your bangs one more time to make sure you get what you want.
   • If your bangs are still too long, shorten them further.
   • If it looks uneven, work carefully to trim away problem areas and get an even result.

Method 2 of 2: Cutting your hair with a razor

1. 1 Find the right razor. Make sure your razor is specifically designed for cutting hair.
2. 2 Take one strand at a time. As with scissors, cut one strand at a time to achieve the best look for your haircut.
3. 3 Run the razor through your hair. Use a razor to gently cut your hair to the desired angled bangs.
   • Use the razor in the same way you would use to curl the ribbon with scissors. Be gentle with your hair.
4. 4 Finish your haircut. Continue to run the razor through your hair until you reach the longest side of your bangs.
5. 5 Enjoy the new way. Congratulations! You've got yourself a glamorous haircut and it's time to show it off.
