Rock It Like The FLOTUS: Bango Tango Bangs


 
Bangs are having a moment. The humble bang has positively transformative properties, from helping you look younger (they disguise forehead wrinkles) to helping you look trendy (if Kim Kardashian is sporting them, which she is, you know it’s a craze). Here’s what the style gurus don’t tell you: once you’re tired of your bangs, you have to grow them out.

This is also a positively transformative experience, in the sense that it transforms you into a quivering mass of bitterness with really bad hair. For the entire 6 months it takes you to grow out the damn bangs. Trust me. I did this. A long time ago, and the experience still haunts me.

But what if, you’re not as brave as Michelle Obama, and you want to change it up but don’t want to pay the price later? Get yourself some fake hair!

Seriously, this measure is endorsed by reputable outlets, not just gimmick lovers like guru girl. This month’s “Shape” magazine had this terrific tip: give the trend a try by purchasing some fake bangs. They recommend: Bango Tango Clip-In Blunt Bangs from Dancing With The Stars. (Click on this link to go to voguewigs.com where you can get them for $22.) "Shape" recommends trying extensions.com as well.

It turns out fake hair isn’t just for the Victorians anymore or those bright orange bodies on “Dancing With The Stars”. You too can give it a whirl.  Rock it like the FLOTUS, girls!
