Why cut your hair when you can fake it with bumper bangs? Here’s the perfect retro hairstyles for short hair and long with a hair bumper and without.

Bumper Bangs Vintage Hair with a Twist

There’s an endless question that comes to mind when picking a new ‘do. To cut bangs or not to cut bangs. Now you don’t have to ask the question.

Bumper bangs or faux bangs allow you to take one of the best old fashioned hairstyles and make it your own. They’re the ideal way to avoid the chop, keep your hair off your face and take your style up a notch.

You can personalise them with a fancy ponytail, flawless vintage curls or a versatile retro updo. Whatever your hair length, these pin up bangs can work for you.
