Your daughter’s wedding is a good reason to give your usual hairstyle a little extra attention. Bangs can stay soft and wispy, sweep across the forehead, or sit neatly above the eyebrows while the rest of your hair is curled, pinned back, or worn in a polished bob. If you’re comparing mother of the bride hairstyles with bangs, start with your existing haircut, then consider your neckline and any hat or fascinator. These 25 looks offer different ways to combine a familiar fringe with styling you can discuss at your hair trial.
1. Silver Bob With Straight Bangs and a Pink Fascinator
A smooth silver bob curves toward the jaw, with straight bangs above the eyes. The pink fascinator adds height beside the fringe. Try your headpiece during the appointment to complement the bob’s clean outline. Bridal hairstylist Kelly Rhodes Frank recommends sleek wedding styles for fine hair, telling Glamour, “If you have fine hair, consider something sleek that will hold all day and stay in place.”
2. Blonde Waves With Full Bangs and a Grey Fascinator
Blonde waves fall to the shoulders in a beautiful way, with a full, separated fringe sitting right on top of the eyebrows. A grey fascinator perches above the plum neckline, adding a nice touch of elegance to the overall look. Make sure to position the accessory so it doesn't push the bangs down out of place.
3. Strawberry Blonde Layers With Fine Bangs
Strawberry blonde hair falls around the shoulders, with ends that are turned under in a stylish way & a fine fringe that sits on top of the eyebrows. The off-the-shoulder neckline looks pretty against a blue background, it leaves the shape of the face visible. Adding a bit of bend to the ends gives the hair some movement, but without curling up into any tight little ringlets.
4. Silver Updo With Parted Bangs
Parted silver bangs curve away from the middle of the forehead in a beautiful sweep of hair, while loose spirals hug the face. The gathered hair at the top is nice and high. Leave some of the front sections of hair loose before you start securing the rest of the updo into place.
5. Highlighted Curls With Curtain Bangs
Blonde highlights are woven through shoulder-length curls to really make them pop, especially against the darker roots. Long curtain bangs cascade right down around the forehead and blend right into the sides of the hair. When shaping the fringe, try treating it separately from the rest of the hair so it stays soft & has a lovely sweeping movement.
Hairstylist Rubi Aguilar explains in Allure that curtain bangs can be customised in length and shape to highlight facial features, taking hair texture and growth patterns into account. Their adaptability offers a useful reason to consider them for your wedding hairstyle.
6. Silver Pixie With a Sweeping Fringe
This silver pixie cut has some great layers going on, creating a rounded outline that frames the face. A diagonal fringe across the forehead does a lot to add some style to the overall look. If you want to make the layers stand out a bit more, use a little styling cream, but not so much that it flattens the crown.
7. Blonde Crop With Feathered Bangs
A blonde crop is a great way to show off a lifted crown & feathered bangs across the forehead really add to the overall style. Short sides mean the turquoise necklace isn't hidden anywhere. When blow-drying the fringe, be careful not to close it over the forehead, you want it to stay soft and movable. Then arrange the longer top sections as you like.
8. Silver Swept-Back Hair With Side Bangs
Silver hair is swept back, creating a sleek look, and a longer fringe angled across the forehead really makes a statement. There are also some curled tendrils that fall right beside the cheeks. When styling the front curls, try to keep them a bit narrower than the rest of the hair, this will give you a nice delicate finish around the face.
9. Blonde Upstyle With Wispy Bangs
Blonde bangs skim right on top of the eyebrows, giving a playful touch, and some of the rest of the hair falls softly alongside the cheek. The rest of the hair is tucked neatly back. Keep any styling product super light on the bangs, just enough to keep the individual strands from clumping together.
10. Blonde Shoulder-Length Curls With Light Bangs
Shoulder-length blonde hair forms into rounded curls that fall towards the shoulders, with light bangs and longer sections sweeping outward to the temples. A pale accessory sits at the side, adding a bit of colour to the overall look. When curling the hair, let it cool for a bit before you try to loosen it so they stay in shape.
11. Layered Brunette Hair With a Side Fringe
Brunette layers sweep back from a lifted crown, with a long side fringe crossing the forehead. The ends turn outward near the shoulders. Concentrate blow-dry lift at the roots, keeping the front sweep softer.
12. Silver Upstyle With a Straight Fringe
An even silver fringe sits above the eyebrows, contrasting with gathered hair and fine tendrils beside the face. Green earrings remain visible. Keep the bangs smooth while allowing softness through the longer front pieces.
13. Chin-Length Brunette Bob With Short Bangs
The brunette bob stops around the chin, with tucked ends and short, separated bangs. Lighter strands brighten the front. A small round brush can guide the ends inward without making the fringe overly rounded.
14. Straight Auburn Hair With Wispy Bangs
Straight auburn lengths reach the shoulders beneath fine bangs that lightly cover the forehead. The restrained texture emphasises the fringe. Smooth the hair in sections, leaving the bangs with a gentle bend rather than flattening them.
15. Blonde Flipped Layers With Full Bangs
Blonde layers curve outward beside the cheeks, then inward near the shoulders. Fuller bangs give the blowout a defined front. Use separate brush sections around the face to control the direction of each curve.
16. Grey Swept-Back Hair With Delicate Bangs
Grey hair is drawn away from the shoulders, with delicate bangs and curls near the ears. The sage V-neck outfit keeps the look understated. Leave narrow front strands free to soften the swept-back sides.
17. Short Blonde Curls With Airy Bangs
Short blonde hair has curls around the sides and an airy fringe across the forehead. The crown stays rounded. Shape the bangs with a smaller brush, using a larger one for bends through the sides.
18. Silver Swept-Back Hair With Side-Swept Bangs
Silver-grey hair is swept back, with long side-swept bangs curving across the forehead and loose spirals beside the cheeks. The pale blue floral neckline and pearl earrings complement the soft finish. Shape the bangs separately to preserve their sweeping curve.
19. Silver Pixie With Short Bangs and a Navy Fascinator
This silver pixie cut has really short, angled bangs that catch the light and some great textured strands on top that add some interest. The navy fascinator is a great match for the embroidered outfit. Just make sure you get the headpiece fixed in place so its base doesn't mess with the fringe.
20. Shoulder-Length Brunette Curls With Swept Bangs
Brunette curls fall in layers to just on the shoulder, with a fringe that sweeps across the forehead. The navy detail on the neckline gives the curls some room to really move. When you're styling it, just define the sections around the face without overdoing the separation - you want some of that great texture to come through.
21. Brunette Swept-Back Hair With Piecey Bangs
Brunette hair is swept well back on the sides, which leaves some great piecey bangs and a longer bit of hair over one shoulder, looking pretty cool. The lighter strands add a nice contrast. When you're finishing the look, just separate the fringe with your fingertips to give it a nice relaxed, not too perfect look.
22. Textured Upstyle With Parted Bangs
Brown and grey-toned strands form a textured upstyle, with parted bangs and curls beside the ears. The lifted sides reveal pearl earrings. Keep the front curls loose enough to show their shape without covering jewellery.
23. Brunette Lob With Bangs and a Pink Fascinator
Brunette hair falls near the shoulders with curved ends and a light fringe. A pink fascinator echoes the embellished blush dress. Smooth the crown before fitting the headpiece, then arrange the bangs around its position.
24. Long Highlighted Waves With Wispy Bangs
Long brunette waves have lighter ribbons through the lengths and a fine fringe across the forehead. One side falls forward in spirals. Separate the styled lengths gently to maintain the contrast between individual waves.
25. Golden Blonde Bob With Short Bangs
This golden blonde bob is so neat, it's a great jaw-length outline and a cute, short fringe. To keep the shape looking tight, just smooth your sides down and then use some gentle airflow to guide the fringe downwards, after which you can just bend the ends in to pick up the rounded line of the silhouette.
Take the photo, wedding outfit details and any hair accessories to the trial session. Then check how the bangs sit when you're moving about, wearing glasses or maybe adding a fascinator, that way, you can make sure you've chosen a finish you feel comfortable keeping up throughout the day.
