The bangs are sectioned as a triangle from the middle of the head forward, then cut straight across so they read as a second horizontal line above the eyes. With the perimeter also blunt, the shape becomes two parallel bars, and that only holds with a real front-section habit: a minute with a small brush every morning, plus a bang trim every two or three weeks. The bob itself can wait far longer.

Suitsoblong, diamond face shapes. Two hard horizontals, one at the brow and one at the jaw, cut a long face into shorter sections and put width across a narrow diamond forehead.
Hair typefine, medium density, straight. The bangs need hair that dries straight or can be persuaded to, since a strong cowlick at the hairline will split them and no product holds that shut.
UpkeepBangs every two to three weeks and the bob every eight, with a daily blow-dry forward and down so they do not separate into pieces.
