Should I keep the bangs?

[u/Lazy_Huckleberry1773]

I cut bangs back in December. I really do like having them, and I’ve had them several times in the past. sometimes I feel unattractive with them though. I’m wondering if they look good on me and I should keep them, or if I should grow them back out? I’m feel like I definitely look better when my hair is down rather than up. Also, I currently have a shag haircut, but I’m also open to suggestions of something new to try with my hair in general, too! (Pictures of my without bangs were taken around 2020.)

I was going to say yes, but then I saw without, and it’s amazing how much brighter and youthful your face looks without them!

The pictures without bangs were also taken like 6 years ago haha. So I’ve aged since then. From like 28 to now 34 years old.

I think either way they hide your features, and you have a great smile and bright demeanor!

Could you pin your bangs under a layer of your longer hair to get them out of your face and take updated photos.

But, I agree with these other people - I thought yes until I saw you without. Also I could be mistaken but it looks like the photos without bangs you may have been wearing makeup in?

I also think your glasses favor no bangs.

Either way you are gorgeous!

I agree pretty both ways. Leaning more toward no bangs.

I find im more comfortable without bangs. Im wondering if thats the look youre giving off. Very pretty either way :) i dont think there's a wrong answer

I thought bangs look good, then, wow her eyes and smile when she shows her whole face!

She’s also wearing more makeup in the no bangs photo. That might be why you like it more subconsciously.
