What is with the new obsession with bangs?

Alyssa Milano, Kim Delany, Jennifer Lopez, Charisma Carpenter, ...

Is it merely as an update to existing styles or a start of a new trend?

As a fan of long, hang-over-the-eyebrows bangs, I thought Kim Delaney looked great on her Philadelphia show last week. I haven`t seen the others, although Alyssa Milano and Jennifer Lopez generally look great in any style (although that short curly wig Jennifer was wearing for awhile didn`t do it for me). As for Charisma Carpenter, I`m still bummed out that she hacked off so much of her gorgeous hair.

Since I love bangs (especially mid-forehead) ones, I hope it is a trend. I`m still trying to find a picture of Charisma Carpenter with shorter hair.

Charisma, all is forgiven! Well, as long as your hair always looks like that!

I`m sorry, but I think Alyssa`s new haircut is nasty. I never did care for the short short bangs. She would probablly look nice with the bangs a little longer, but I have to admit that I favor hairstyles without bangs.

What the heck did Alyssa do that for? I mean, did she sneeze when the stylist was cutting her bangs? That`s just ridiculous.

And even more depressing if you have seen her promo pictures from the beginning of the season where her hair looked the best it has in a few years.

Bummer.

My word! I didn`t think it was possible, but they`re worse than Callista Flockhart`s bangs from whatever season she had them so short. Those kinds of bangs almost always look accidental. Even monk bangs are better.

Another voice for the chorus - Alyssa, were you doped up on cold medication? I have always liked that she experimented a lot with her hair, and always seemed to try styles that were at least trying to be, you know, flattering. Not this one. Yikes. Shudder.

On a more general note, I`m generally a fan of bangs, as they soften up the looks of many stars who need softening. Kim Delaney`s don`t work for me, though. I think with the straight long hair, they make her look too much like a 6-year-old. I`d still favor the no bang curly version from her NYPD Blue days.

Ecckk I hate bangs don`t come back in style... I`ve been taking forever to get mine to GROW OUT! geez style change so fast. Everyone wants to let there hair grow out... and then everyone gets it all chopped off. Well, I`m through with that crap.. I`m growing my hair out and leaving it that way for awhile! Bangs were such a pain in the @$$ to curl everyday also! Plus, I had to use hair spray...eckkk I hate using those sticky products on my hair!

Ok, I guess I`m in the minority here, but I like the pictures of Alyssa Milano`s new haircut. I think it suits her well.

WOW, looks like she either had an accident while trimming her hedges or her 4 year old neice got her with the scissors while she was sleeping. At least it`ll only take 2 months to grow out that mess.

Charisma - WOW! I like it - I like it a lot!

Alyssa - While I like short bangs that is too short! It also doesn`t work with the rest of the hair.

Going from what she had... to this? What a horrible decision.

Alyssa`s bangs are to short! I,ve been trying to decide for two months if I should get bangs are not. But ...nothing that short or choppy. Right now my hair is chin length, slightly inverted in the back and has blonde highlights all over.

Well, Alyssa`s bangs are pretty short indeed -- but not bad. IMO she looks quite cute in those images.

I don`t like Alyssa`s bangs. I thought she looked so pretty in those AT&T commercials with the longer hair and grown out bangs. She just looks younger now.

well some of you say she looks younger...yeah maybe she does. I don`t see it that way.

I think her new hairdo is a small step away from a male mullet. It looks horrible!!! She looks like a MONGOLOID with that cut. All I can picture is Captain Kangaroo...LOL.

I don`t watch much TV but her bangs remind me of Courtney Cox`s bangs in the movie Scream 3. Pixie bangs combined with a trailer park semi-mullet just look awful on any women...

LADIES IF YER OUT THERE THINKING OF DOING THIS TO YER BANGS.....DON`T UNLESS YOU WANNA LOOK REPULSIVE.

Cheers
