How to cut straight bangs

First, think about how long you want your bangs to be. Do you like a short pony that goes up to the top eyebrows or do you want a longer one that almost reaches the eyes?

  1. Comb the hair straight down and moisten it a little with the water spray bottle.
  2. Stand in front of the mirror, keep your head straight, and make a small incision above your nose at the height you want. You should not stretch your hair too tightly.
  3. Now try to cut straight to one side from the middle.
  4. Repeat the process on the other side.
  5. When your pony is now the length you want and has been cut nicely straight, you can easily cut into the tips with the modeling scissors. However, you should only do this if your hair is completely dry. You will get a more natural result.

  3. It is best if you also make a small cut in the longest part of your pony.
  4. Now orient yourself on the two incisions and slowly cut them down from the short to the long point.

  6. To finish off, you can loosen up the bangs a little bit by cutting very slightly vertically from below into the tips with the modeling scissors.

And your new pony hairstyle is ready.
