40 Trendy Ways to Wear Wispy Bangs

Wispy bangs perfectly complement trendy haircuts for ladies. The lightly-feathered soft fringe instantly transforms your look, giving you a more youthful and sassy appearance. Haircuts with such detail nicely frame your face and soften strong jawlines, especially when you go for a style that flatters the shape of your face.

Here is our collection of images of beautiful hairstyles for you to make your pick from before heading to your hairstylist.

1. Layered Medium Hair. For a sultry and sexy tousled effect, opt for layered mid-length hair with a feathered wispy fringe. This style will easily disguise a large forehead and give you a stylish, chic look.

2. Crisp Wispy Fringe. Nothing spells sexy like face-framing feathered bangs. This sassy hairstyle is ideal for those who desire full fringes without the thickness of the classic bangs.

4. Curtain Fringes. Brigitte Bardot made this hairstyle famous in the 60s and now it’s hot again. Curtain bangs are usually long, layered, and center-parted, creating a sexy frame for your face with a focus on your eyes and cheekbones.

5. See-Through Front Strands. These go well with wavy hair. The feathered, wispy bangs at her brow exquisitely complement her wavy hair and chime in with the subtle highlights at the ends.

11. Shoulder-Length Layers. Such haircuts soften your strong jawline and make you look younger. Go for this cut if you want to hide a big forehead and achieve a sultry look.

12. Side Swept Front. The side swoop makes the face appear more oval and a bit longer. This makes such haircuts suitable for people with round and heart-shaped faces. The layered fringe swept to the side creates an asymmetric effect that helps to elongate your face.

13. Thick Hair Lightweight Fringe. This light eye-grazing fringe does a great job of breaking up the density of the thick reddish-brown mane around the face and, together with the side layers, builds a cheekbone-boosting frame.

20. Shaggy Front Wisps. Here is how you can tailor a wispy fringe to your style — cut it shorter and chunkier to perfectly fit into your fresh shag.

21. Layered Thin Bangs. Long front fringes are great for the attention they give to the eyes, but they also can be annoying, so keep your lash-grazing fringe wispy and layered for both your comfort and a stylish look.

22. Greige Blonde Ombre. Getting longer toward the temples to hit and accentuate the cheekbones, these effortless eye-skimming fringes are kept soft to perfectly fit the dreamy ombre hairstyle.

23. See-Through Strands. Get thin front strands that go past your brows, but don’t get into your eyes. They are perfect for softening any strong features and showing off your enigmatic side.

24. Straight and Wingy Fringe. These straight one-length strands on the forehead provide a striking contrast to the thick, choppy, and heavily layered hair volumized by the 90s blowout.

25. Blonde Textured Lob. If your hair is on the thinner side, getting a deep fringe is a surefire way to add fullness to the front without the fringe feeling scarce.

26. Layered Ends. Along with the bouncy layers at the bottom, the choppiness of this brow-grazing fringe injects movement and texture into the straight hair, while its wispiness results in a better lift in the front.

30. Deep Straight Fringe. If you want to add fullness to the front of your hairstyle or balance a broad face, these deep piece-y fringes will do the job without overwhelming your look.

31. Long Shaggy Locks. Although typical curtain fringes are cut thicker and styled away from the face, leaving some shorter bits in the middle allows for both center parting and wearing the fringe straight.

32. Thick Banged Waves. Here is a fresh take on Farrah Fawcett’s hair, with the same volume and movement but more effortless and angled, including those wispy fringes blended into the face-framing layers.

33. Wavy Bob with Bangs. Surely, you will need a good texturizing product and a heat tool to recreate this cute look, but in the end, you will enjoy both the curtain effect and the layered length.

34. Blonde Front Money Pieces. It’s a good idea to emphasize the piece-y texture and airiness of your front strands with a few touches of a contrasting blonde chiming with the overall color scheme.

37. Copper Wavy Shag. The shaggy layers of this style create fullness around the lower part of the face to balance out the small chin, and the short fringe draws attention to the eyes without building unwanted volume on the top.

38. Layers and Birkin Bangs. This messy face-framing made a bit angled at the edges and sparse at the ends offers a modern, wispier take on the iconic effortless fringe of the ‘60s.

39. Asymmetrical Swoop Fringe. It’s a nice idea to style your see-through fringe to one side and pull your top tresses to another side since you arrive at more volume in the front with no sweat.

40. Long Side Strands. Similar face-framing adds texture and interest to medium length, creating an illusion of volume and thickness. The chunky highlights bring a perfect finishing touch to this style.

If you’re looking to make a transition to a fringe but don’t really fancy thick, full types of it, the hairstyles mentioned above might just be exactly what you need.
