1. The name of a hairstyle

"Bangs" is also called "bangs" and "bangs hair". People call the short hair of women or children hanging neatly on the forehead "bangs".

2. Folklore

The first theory:

It is said that there was a fairy boy named Liu Hai in the Tang Dynasty (see Anhui Fengyang Prefecture Chronicle). In folklore, bangs always cover (hang down) a neat row of short hair on the forehead, looking childish and cute. For this reason, the painter painted a portrait of the fairy child, with bangs as the model, short hair hanging on the forehead, riding on a toad, and dancing with a bunch of money. Later, the short hair on the forehead of children or women was called "bangs". Wang Tao of the Qing Dynasty wrote "Songbin Trivial Stories": "My face is like the full moon, my eyes are like stars, and I only have a hairpin in my hair, just like the bangs painted in the world." Chapter 19 of "A Brief History of Civilization" by Li Boyuan of the Qing Dynasty: "When everyone looked up, All of them are wearing big leather shoes, with bangs cut on the top and loose legs below. "Many people do not know the origin of "bangs" without research, and often write it as " Liu Hai" or " Liu Hai". is wrong. In addition, "bangs" are only worn by children and women. Nowadays, some young men pretend to be cool and deliberately let a few locks of hair hang down on their foreheads. That cannot be called "bangs." It can only be said to be the hair hanging in front of the forehead!

The second theory:

In ancient times, girls wore hairpins (hairpins) in their hair when they were 15 years old to signify adulthood. Boys wear their hair in a bun when they are 15 years old, and when they are 20 years old, they perform the "crown ceremony" (wearing a crown) to indicate adulthood. Before adulthood, children's hair naturally hangs down, so people use "chuiju" and "junian" to refer to children or childhood. However, there are differences in the hair worn by boys and girls: boys have hair on the left and right corners of their foreheads, which are called "zodiac signs"; girls have hair that hangs down from the center of their foreheads, which is called "zhao". mane". This kind of hair grown in childhood is collectively called "child hair". When women reach adulthood, they sometimes still let the hair on their forehead hang naturally for the sake of dressing up (this is where the term "fashionable" comes from). In the Tang Dynasty, the legend of "bangs playing with golden toad" appeared among the people. Since "Liu Hai" and "Liu Hai" had the same pronunciation in ancient times, and "Liu Hai" was originally a colloquial name, the written word was written as "Liu Hai".

The third theory:

It is said that when Wu Zetian was in power, a group planning a palace coup was uncovered one day. Shangguan Wan'er's name was included in the list of murderers. Wu Zetian couldn't help being furious, and immediately summoned Shangguan Wan'er for tattooing (a punishment in which marks or words are tattooed on the face and covered with ink). Wu Zetian angrily scolded: "In the past, your grandfather (Shangguanyi) formed a clique and rebelled, and was thrown into the sky prison. I thought of your outstanding talents, so I appointed you as a female imperial officer. Unexpectedly, you repaid your kindness with hatred and tried to murder me. I'm really angry." You're dead!" Shangguan Wan'er smiled calmly after hearing this: "Did your majesty remember that the slaves blocked the trip three times?" Wu Zetian thought about it carefully and realized that there were several times when Wu Zetian sent orders to hold banquets in the imperial garden, but was stopped by Shangguan Wan'er when he was about to leave. After the son presented the memorial and drove back to the palace, he nodded slightly and admitted that this was indeed the case. Shangguan Wan'er said: "Does Your Majesty know that the imperial garden is already in danger? I participated in the rebellion at that time just to protect you secretly!" Wu Zetian was speechless after saying this, deeply regretting that she had wrongly blamed Shangguan Wan'er. However, the emperor was so eloquent that the tattoo execution was still carried out. However, during the execution, a plum blossom was tattooed on the forehead with cinnabar instead. Shangguan Wan'er was already very pretty, and the small and exquisite red plum blossom she had just tattooed on her was placed right above the two eyebrows, like two dragons playing with a pearl. It was really beautiful. But it is a shame after all - the mark of a criminal. The smart Shangguan Wan'er combed a strand of black hair from her forehead, which just covered the cinnabar mark, and called it "bangs". The concubines in the palace looked at it and thought it was much more beautiful and charming than having their hair combed back. So they followed suit one after another, until now.

A. Several styles of bangs

European style - big bangs

Big bangs, what hairstylists call "BOBO hair" ". It sticks to the scalp like a hat. This kind of bangs has no boundaries on the top of the head. Some bangs are shaped into an arc, just reaching the top of the eyes and covering the eyebrows. They can highlight the eyes, cheeks and nose. The straight bangs are very straight, so you have to have straight hair to show off your charm. In addition to long bangs cut to the edge of the eyes, this type of bangs can also be cut at a high level to reveal part of the forehead, eyebrows, and eyes. Obvious peripheral lines are deliberately trimmed from the contours of the entire face, making the layers on the left and right slightly asymmetrical, creating the same aesthetic feeling of gap. It is especially suitable for women with longer faces and tall figures.

The most charming - slanted bangs

Slanted bangs give people a bit of a nostalgic feeling. The entire forehead is covered with hair in the shape of a "19" arc. Stroke it sideways In the past, it showed the feeling of being caressed by the breeze, which was very charming. The hair behind the top of the head is best permed into slightly curled hair to create a flying feeling. Long slanted bangs and long straight hair look particularly youthful and elegant. Shorter oblique bangs are suitable for medium to long hair. The hair can be electric, wavy, or straight. Short oblique bangs make people feel very neat, because almost the forehead is exposed, making the face clear and looking particularly refreshing.

Japanese style - ultra-short bangs

Ultra-short bangs are more Japanese, with a strong Japanese flavor. At first glance, the bangs are almost invisible, and the forehead seems to be a messy extra part of the hair on the top of the head. In fact, this is deliberately trimmed.

The hair behind ultra-short bangs can be left a little longer at the end to create a slightly messy look. This kind of bangs is suitable for younger girls and is suitable for round faces, because the entire facial contour is almost unobstructed, so the facial features look very clear. Girls with round faces can make their faces look longer after having this kind of bangs. It feels very avant-garde and youthful.

B. The hairstylist teaches you how to cut bangs

As soon as something becomes popular, everyone will follow it. But popular things cannot be suitable for everyone, and they also vary from person to person. Cutting bangs is not a small decision. Once cut, it is irreversible, so it is better to listen to the professional advice of an experienced stylist first. At least you can keep up with the fashion without losing your beauty and personality.

Oval face shape:

The bangs for this face shape are designed in an asymmetrical manner. Those with thicker hair can get a high-level trim. Bangs length can be above the eyebrows or close to the hairline. The bangs created in this way will make the hair light and pretty.

Inverted triangle face shape:

The bangs are designed to gradually lengthen, and the length should not be too short. Bangs with small hair volume can be trimmed at the edges, which can cover the wider forehead and create a lively and bright youthful look.

Square face:

Bangs should be designed in an unequal or neat manner. Bangs with more volume can be connected with the sideburns on both sides to highlight your personality and unique style.

Round face:

Super short or neat bangs are more suitable to adjust the face shape. Such bangs work particularly well with short hair, but are not suitable for long hair.
