You are very pretty, but I don't like the fringe, it sort of clutters your face, it looks awkward with the angled bangs that don't connect, and you almost looked little boyish with them. This is only one person's opinion so do what you please.

I see how it is possible for you to look good *with* bangs, but those? Notsomuch...

If you want something similar, bangs like Bettie Page are a good choice. Also, you may not want to get them cut so close to your brows--it dulls your eyes.

I LOVE the bangs. Personally I think they make your eyes stand out more. Personally I like them, I think you should get them.

I think if you are going to get bangs, get the side swept ones. It will give your hair more body.

It was a bit hard to tell since the color was so different from your natural hair color, but in most of those shots it looked pretty cool. I say go for it.

With bangs, but have them higher and straighter than the fake ones.

The bangs are cut with a downward angle towards the side of your face, in my humble opinion, I would prefer that they be cut straight, or with a reverse angle .\/. so that they end in a point at your forehead. More goth-like to me.

I was afraid to cut my bangs in a fringe and now I don't see how I ever went without.

I took the desiscion to have a fringe after I got terribly sunburnt on my forehead. I sort of like it. It does the job ( and I wear factor 50 now anyway.) The thing is, I reckon I'll have a job to grow mine out since it's of the shortish straight Betty Paige type.

So, if you do get some kind of fringe try and have a style that will not look too strange if you get bored of it and wish to grow it out!!!!!!! Why not try looking at some hair magazines? study your face shape and try to match it to one in the mag so you can get a rough idea of what appeals to you. If you happen to find one you like then you could take the mag to a hairdresser and get a professional opinion.

The bangs would probably look better if they were cleaner and shorter. The fake ones you used were pretty messy, and too long.

You know what's ironic? I have stated I don't like bangs, and it seems we have all agreed that bangs look better if they're don't go below the eyebrows.
Yet the girl I like has bangs, below her eyebrows, and she's the most beautiful woman I have ever known.

Heh, some people just have the face for them.

The short bangs would look quite lovely though, especially with a pert hairstyle behind it. You could go for the whole 50's look if you really wanted, one of my personal favorites (but I don't look good with bangs sooo...)

Yes, of course she is. =) I love her eyes.

A shorter bang would be better...but...you´ll have to straighten it EVERY DAY. I couldn´t take it, and I had one once (it was a mess).

Eh, I don't really like those straight choppy ones for your face...I really think a sideswept fringe would compliment your face and hair a lot better, and give it more body. That would look pretty. These...I think they make you look a bit boyish actually. Just my thoughts.
