A question on whether I should get sweeping bangs added to my hair style? I have long thick black hair.  My hair is straight and has front layers.  Also my face is round,  I just want to add something else and wanted to know if sweeping bangs is a good idea. Even though I have some front layers it still seems boring.  What is your opinion??

Also I know if I get sweeping bangs I will have them cut long, so they can either slope over face or be tucked behind an ear.  I just hope sweeping bangs aren't a pain and are easy to style.  Couldn't figure how to put a picture on my post so I'm going to give you a site to see the style I'm looking for.  It's a picture of Lindsey Lohan, it was the closet celebrity picture I could get that shows the type of sweeping bang I'm looking for.  Go to www.celebrity-hairstyles.org and click on Lindsey on the left and go to picture # 5.  Tell me what you think??

Due to a recent project I've become involved with I send a fair amount to time the the mall.  Below is a picture of Jessica Simpson, seems this is fast becoming a VERY popular look!

I have very thick, long hair and just got the sweeping bangs cut, and I will tell you, most of those celebs have fine hair cause my bangs did not turn out like theirs look.  Also, hair spray will be you new best friend:)  But really, try it out once cause you never know what it will look like, and if you get them long they should grow out nicely.  Also, I think the girl cut my bangs to thick, maybe start out with long, thinner bangs and get more cut if you want...my biggest problem is my hair is so thick, that when it is cut it looks even thicker!  my bangs dont blend in with the rest of my long, wieghted down hair..if that makes sense...sorry so long:)

Thanks for the suggestion.  I will take that into consideration.  Yeah, I also noticed that all the pics that I like with the style of sweeping bangs, the celebs have thin hair.  Still debating on whether I'm going to do it.  I'm going to get my hair cut sometime and most likely going to get them.  Again Thanks amytmcg!!

I understand how to import pics. & websites, just needed to open my eyes.  While here are some pics of the style I'm going for.  Maybe this will help others interested in sweeping bangs. 

P.S. Anyone know the easiest way to size your image to at least 30kb.  These images were over 30kb and this was the best I could do


         &nbs p;

Okay, those pics seem closer to what I have.  Let us know how it turns out if you decide to cut the bangs.

Sorry, I haven't been to this site for awhile. I did get my sweeping bangs, and I love them.  It just gives me something extra to my face then the plain straight look. Thought it wouldn't work because I don't have thin hair, but with my thick hair it worked out great.  Thank you, for anyone who helped me out with suggestions.  If anyone needs advice about sweeping bangs, I'll be here.
