Most clients' bangs grow out before the haircut does causing them tress duress. I like to show my clients how to do a home bang trim so they don't butcher them. First I comb down the entire bang section, making sure to get all of the hair that is meant to be the bangs. Do this on dry hair only because wet hair will shrink when dry making the bangs much shorter than desired. Take each side of the bangs at the corners and gather them to the middle pinching them at the bridge of the nose. You now have a small point of hair that is the entire bang section that can be cut in one straight across small clip. Cut at the level of the bridge of the nose, any higher than this level may leave the hair too short. The bangs will fall longer at the sides of the face and slightly shorter in the center. I find this arching shape to be more pleasing than the straight across line look. For added texture and softness to the ends you can point cut an 1/8" up to ½" into the ends closing the scissors as you pull away from the ends. This quick fix works well with practice and will get you through until you see your stylist again.
