bangs?

Greetings...

Found the board, just want I needed. In March of 1997, i had my hair cut (it was fairly long) to chin length. I thought it sounded good at the time, but I looked HORRID with it that way, as i found out AFTER it was cut....ugh. Anyways, i have been letting it grow, but it seems thinner than it used to be. I have been reading about vitamins and biotin on this board and will give it a try. Also, will those ..satin slumber caps work.?..i doubt a satin pillow case will work for me as my husband tends to take the pillows during the night and I end up sleeping on my arms.. and I have two kittens that like to burrow under my hair when I am asleep..

Oh, and right now, my hair is about at half a handspan (below waist) from touching the floor when I sit crossed legged, so I really want to get it in really good condition.

The bad parts are split ends, bangs hanging to the end of my nose and couple of side sections that were cut to my chin that are growing out. Should I keep the bangs cut or grow them out as well....and if I do grow them out, any suggestions on style for them. I do not blow dry my hair and have only hot iron curled my bangs.

Any more suggestions???...

wishing you all well..
