Start with dry, styled hair
Section out the bangs you want to cut
Clip the rest of your hair back
Comb the bangs straight down
Hold the hair lightly between your fingers
Cut less than you think you need
Use small vertical snips for a wispy effect
Point-cut into the ends instead of cutting straight across
Work in tiny sections
Check both sides for balance
Trim gradually until you reach the desired length
Soften any blunt edges with light point-cutting
Recheck after the bangs settle naturally
Make final touch-ups only if needed
