The Best Bangs for Round Faces
If youāve ever debated getting bangs but worried they wouldnāt suit your round face, hereās some good news: the right cut can actually enhance your features. A well-chosen fringe can add structure, highlight cheekbones, and even create the illusion of a longer face.
Stylists agree that curtain bangs are the most flattering option. With a soft, face-framing shape, they naturally draw attention to your eyes and cheekbones. If you have thick or wavy hair, a blowout can add volume and lengthen your face. For straighter hair, cheekbone-length curtain bangs create the perfect elongating effect.
If you want something bolder, the Brigitte Bardot fringe is another great choice. This shaggy, center-parted style grazes the bridge of your nose and blends into the cheekbones, giving your face subtle definition. On the flip side, blunt, straight-across bangs can make a round face look even rounderāso theyāre best avoided.
The key? Talk to your stylist about length, texture, and how much maintenance youāre willing to commit to. The right bangs can be a game-changerājust make sure you pick the ones that work with your hair and lifestyle!


Hate Your New Haircut? Read This
You finally took the plunge, chopped your hair, and... you hate it. Before you spiral, take a deep breath. The first shock of a dramatic haircut can be overwhelming, but your brain just needs time to adjust. Science says it can take up to 21 days for your mind to recognize your new reflection.
In the meantime, avoid the mirror marathonāitāll only fuel regret. Instead, distract yourself with things that make you feel good. Try styling your new cut differently, play with accessories, or ask your stylist for tips. Sometimes, the right product or a simple tweak can change everything.
If comments from friends make you self-conscious, have a go-to response ready. A confident āYep, I switched it up!ā can keep unwanted opinions at bay. And if youāre still struggling, remind yourself: your hair doesnāt define you, and most importantly, it will grow back.

Hair Botox: The Secret to Frizz-Free Hair?
The name might sound intense, but hair Botox has nothing to do with injections. Instead, itās a deep-conditioning treatment designed to revive dry, damaged, or frizzy hair. Packed with proteins, vitamins, and hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, it helps fill in gaps in the hair cuticle, leaving strands smoother, shinier, and stronger. Think of it as a reset button for stressed-out hair.
Unlike keratin treatments, which often contain harsh chemicals, hair Botox skips the formaldehyde and focuses on hydration and repair. If your hair feels brittle from heat styling or color treatments, this could be a game-changer. The treatment is typically done in a salon, takes about 90 minutes, and can last up to three months with proper care.
Not ready to commit? A deep-conditioning mask with similar ingredients can offer a taste of the benefits at home. While no treatment is a magic fix, hair Botox can help bring your hair back to lifeāno needles required.


Go Beyond Homeowners Insurance With a Home Warranty
If youāre a homeowner, you know unexpected expenses are par for the course. One way to help shield your finances is to get a home warranty.
Unlike homeowners insurance, which covers natural disasters and theft, a home warranty could help safeguard you against costly repairs of eligible essential home appliances and systems due to normal wear and tear.

How often do you cut your hair? |

Parting Thoughts
ā True or False? False. Cutting your hair does not affect its growth rate. Hair growth occurs from the follicles in your scalp, and trimming your hair only removes split ends, making your hair look healthier. However, regular trims can prevent breakage and help maintain the appearance of length.
