Serious question, why do so many people at home cut their bangs straight across?
I was watching a makeup tutorial on YouTube last week, and the creator paused to trim her own bangs. She just grabbed scissors and cut a harsh, straight line right above her brows. It made her face look boxy. I see this all the time with clients who come in for fixes. The issue is that a straight cut doesn't follow the natural curve of the hairline or face shape. Has anyone found a good way to explain this to clients before they grab the kitchen shears?

Used to think it was easy, now I see it's a trap.

But what if the straight-across bang is a style choice, not a mistake? Some people want that blunt, graphic look on purpose. It's a vibe, like a mod fashion statement from the 60s. Maybe they're going for that sharp, clean line because it stands out against softer makeup. It's not always about following the face shape... sometimes it's about making a bold shape against it.

Remember when I thought you just needed a steady hand? Turns out it's all about the angle you hold the scissors, not just cutting straight.
