It's a myth that bangs don't work on everyone.

While face shape and hair texture are often two major factors that influence the decision to get or steer clear of bangs, certain styles, like wispy bangs, are one-size-fits-all. This look is both universal and low-maintenance — as far as fringes go.

Wispy bangs are exactly what they sound like: light and airy. Unlike other types of bangs, this style describes the technique hairstylists use to cut the hair, so they're completely customizable. That's why Priyanka Chopra Jonas's full, airy bangs and Gigi Hadid's center-parted baby bangs are both considered wispy.

"[Wispy bangs] are an easy way to add style but not have to commit to something too bold," says Sierra Kener, a stylist at Nine Zero One Salon in LA. "And they're low-maintenance! They require little to no upkeep if the stylist cuts them right. I suggest getting them trimmed every three to four weeks or when you feel needed."

Universal? Low-maintenance? Easy to grow out? Sounds like wispy bangs are training wheels of fringe, making them a great first style like curtain bangs.

So... are you internally debating getting bangs this summer? If yes, we've got you covered.

5. Soft Low Ponytail

A light, wispy texture as seen on Margot Robbie is a soft alternative to other styles of full bangs. Most often, you'll see wispy bangs hit just below the eyebrow like hers do. And they really elevate a loose low ponytail.

6. Piecey Bangs and Waves

Priyanka Chopra Jonas's full, wispy bangs blend seamlessly into her layered mid-length cut, which she styled in loose beachy waves.

7. '90s Updo

Cardi B's stylist Tokyo Stylez was inspired by the rapper's '90s Versace dress when creating her updo for the 2022 Met Gala. And the wispy, eye-grazing bangs really complete the reference to the decade's hairstyles. The hairstylist reached for TRESemmé products to sculpt and set the updo.

8. Rustic Braid

Upgrade your Pinterest braid with a set of wispy bangs. Camila Cabello's wavy, piecey curtain bangs compliment the romanticism of her hairstyle.

9. Curly Shag

Sandra Oh's curly wispy bangs add to the retro vibe of her shoulder-length shag cut.
