Pin Back Your Bangs
Short crops are the go-to cut for summer, but bangs make any style a little harder to deal with, since they tend to stick to your forehead in the heat.
Pull It All Back
Pulling your hair away from your face allows you to showcase features that can get overwhelmed by your hair. To score this look, straighten the strands that frame your face and comb them back, teasing the crown a little for extra height. Secure the ends with pins.
Spring for a Classic Look
Parted bangs add a little volume at the crown and paired with a mid-level bun, you'll look so stunning!

Be a Bunhead
Yes, slicked strands pulled into a bun is the signature look of a ballerina, but you can do this 'do straight out of the shower-no drying time necessary!

Begin braiding the larger braid, secure it with an elastic band, and then wrap it across the top of your head, pinning it behind your opposite ear. Repeat with the smaller braid and you're done!
