"Hi, this is Liz Muller from Liz's Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida. I'm going to show you how to create smooth bangs on ethnic hair. This young lady has like long bangs, I want to create smooth, soft bangs. Okay. Her hair is not relaxed from here to here. So I want to go ahead and take that piece of hair and put my flat iron directly underneath, smooth it a few times and bring it to the side. Because of her hairstyle I want a side bang, and it's long, I don't want a bang directly under here because what happens, it's going to be over her eyes. I want something soft and with a little bend so it can match the waves in her hair. If you want it under and towards your face and completely straight, just go straight down with the iron and you get completely straight bangs down. Here you just sweep it over again, if you want that sweep look, but if you want it down you come this way. This is like a half side bang also. Okay. And this is how you go ahead and make these bangs nice and straight. Thank you. This is Liz Muller."
