Wispy bangs are the new it-look for bang-lovers everywhere. They are our tried and true favorite, but a little thinner and a lot easier to manage. Bangs are a nice change for women that get antsy with their look and want a simple change that they plan to stick with for a while.

Not only do they look a bit different from what we consider “regular” bangs (bangs that are cut straight across the forehead, in line with your eyebrows), but they are also more choppy to match your hair’s natural texture. This technique allows them to blend better with your hairline.

Wispy bangs are typically much thinner than the blunt styles we are so used to. They are cut at an angle and scissored vertically to maintain an uneven appearance. You may not notice this effect unless you look at them straight-on, but visually they make for an aesthetically pleasing look. These bangs hairstyles are styled to fall into your eyes and make you feel like a sexy goddess.

We’re taking hairstyle cues from celebs that always have the best bangs. Here are some of our favorite celebrities whose wispy bangs hairstyles are so cute they’ll convince you to “chop it off.”
