I think that some women do look younger with bangs, others just have a fruity looking hair cut with bangs that make them look even older or dated.

Never had bangs, never will. Hate the sensation of hair in my face. Bangs suit some people, not others. They're tricky if you wear glasses. They look sad with older, thinning hair, and can be even more aging.

 

If you're young to start with, or you're using the fake bangs they're advertising on the QVC splash page, they're probably great.

 

The word "bang" in the hair lexicon has its roots in the word "bangtail," a term for the practice of cutting a horses's tail hair straight across. If that doesn't make you think twice, I don't know what will.

@Katcat1: regardless of age, bangs do NOT work well on a round face or with curly hair!

I need to have a wispy fringe point cut bang. Softens my features.

I've worn bangs my entire life. There have been times I've attempted to grow them out but bangs are so much more flattering on me. I don't wear long bangs, though. I like them above my eyebrows. I think long bangs hanging in a woman's face is tacky.

Re: Want to look 5 to 10 years younger??

I've worn bangs all of my life as well.  The interesting thing is that I have NO lines or wrinkles on my forehead. I think that is because my forehead has been protected from the sun for 65+ years. However, no one gets to see that line free area but me.
