bangs or no bangs?

Bangs with super-ling hair will just make you look like a little girl. To bring your look into this decade (lol), try long layers, with some shorter ones around your face. The shorter layers will give you the look and feel of a bang without having it such a sharp contrast to the length. Throw in a few subtle highlights (especially around your face; it tends to make you look younger) and lowlights to balance it out, and you'll have a clean, fresh new look with minimal effort. And you get to keep most of your hair. Blessed Be

Well, bangs can be risky, because they don't suit everyone, a better alternative would be the side fringe, which looks good on almost anyone, and actually can be customized a lot. You can wear it in the front, wear it on either side, or pin it back with the rest of your hair, if someday you're not in the mood for it. If you get straight bangs, then you're basically stuck with that style. Plus a side fringe is more fun and more young, and it's almost always in, thanks to the Paris Hilton style. i had it a while back too. And I loved it, had it for a long while actually.
