How to Cut a Bang With a Thin Hairline

When you have flat or thin hair, it is hard to add texture to it without it going limp. Fortunately, a thin set of bangs can frame your face and add some depth to flat, fine hair. Knowing how to cut a bang with a thin hairline gives you control over your hairstyle and personal appearance. It also saves money by not having to go to a salon for such a simplistic trim job.

Things You'll Need

• Comb
• Hair ties
• Sharp scissors

Instructions

1. Comb your hair thoroughly to smooth and detangle it. Part your hair evenly down the middle. Secure your hair in a simple ponytail after doing this.

2. Part the front section of your hair, triangularly, no farther than 1 inch from your hairline at your brow. Comb the hair straight down in your face smoothly.

3. Hold the hair between the thumb and forefinger in one hand and slide your fingers down to the center of your eyes.

4. Snip in a straight line across the top edge of your forefinger, using it as a straight edge to guide you. Drop the cut hair into a garbage bag or other waste item.

Tips & Warnings

• Style as desired.

• Fringe your bangs, if necessary, to your style.
