Clipping in bangs is a simple way to temporarily change your hairstyle and try out a fringe without commitment. Here's how to do it:
Getting Started
-
Unclip the Bangs: Begin by fully unclipping all the pieces of your clip-in bangs. The number of clips will vary depending on the style. (Source: YouTube video: How To Do Clip-In Bangs on Your Own Hair)

Tips for a Natural Look
- Blending is Key: Ensure the color and texture of your clip-in bangs blend seamlessly with your natural hair.
- Styling: After clipping in your bangs, style them to match your existing hairstyle. This might involve brushing, curling, or straightening. (Source: Various YouTube tutorials on styling clip-in bangs)
- Hairspray: Use hairspray to help blend the clip-in bangs with your natural hair and hold the style in place.
Troubleshooting
- If the bangs feel loose or slip: Ensure that you’ve secured all clips and consider using extra hairpins for added security.
- If the bangs are too bulky or unnatural looking: Try teasing your own hair at the roots for better blending, or opt for a different, thinner style of clip-in bangs next time.
