Step 1: Gather Materials

To get the best style from your bangs, you'll need: 
  • A light hold hairspray
  • A fine-tooth comb 
  • A blow dryer. 
Step 2: Spray Hair

Start off by spraying your bangs with the light-hold hairspray. This will give you more control when styling them. 

Step 3: Dry Hair

Now use the comb and blowdryer to style the bangs. 

First, you want to work against any cowlicks or irregular hairline movements. Then comb the bangs in the direction you want them to lay. Hold the blow dryer above the comb, following its movements. 

Now comb the hair back in the opposite direction of the styling. This will add movement to the hair and prevent it from sticking in one direction. 

Make sure you focus on drying the root area to flatten the hairline and work it in the direction you want. Continue combing the hair back and forth until it is dry. 

Step 4: Style Bangs

Once the bangs are dry, use the comb to style them across the forehead or straight downwards according to your preference.
