What should I do with slightly grown out bangs?

Question

Ok, so in December I got straight-across bangs, but now they have grown out some. They are not side bangs yet but I want to grow them out.  I try to straighten them out like I did before but now they don't have the same lift.  Any Ideas how I could style it while growing them out, pictures def. help full! thanks

You could try putting them back with a bobby pin like this: (sorry it's  such a long link jst copy and paste it)

You could braid them back if there long enough:

This method is sort of like braid twisting and this picture dosn't show it too well but pretty much your just working your way down and twisting it down then clipping it back!:

you could also just sort of curl the end of that piece in towards your head then tuck it back (you might want to pin it back with a bobby pin so it will stay) and you can put it behid yor eard but i mean to like just tuck it into your hair... If that makes any sense.

I hope I've helped and i'm really sorry these are all really long and stuff!

Obviously, hair keeps on growing, and any cut will get out of shape soon.  The added length will pull them down as well, and tend to go flat.  There are two options: get them re-cut, or try to struggle as they get longer.

I find that one good way to hide "mistakes" in the hair cut is to curl the hair.  Do not straighten it, since that only shows off the unevenness and that only makes it longer and limp.  The thing you want is to put a little bend in the hair... so that is has some shape.  The curl will also add some lift to those bangs too when done near the base.

There is nothing stopping you from parting your hair on the side and brushing them to the side.  With a bit of a bend in the hair, they will stay there quite nicely,  You can also put a bit of backcombing at the base to add some lift to the bangs.

I had the same problem like 18 months ago so I grew them out some and have them as side swept bangs. When I don't want them in my eyes I get a clip and just clip them behind my ear. When I wear my hair down I straighten them and just let them hang.

as always peace out
