To Trim, Or Not To Trim?

Sasha has had bangs for a long time... I was thinking about letting them grow out, of course this requires me taking the time to keep them out of her face.

I think I like her with bangs though... I don't know. It seems to add to her cute little shag look. What do you think? Should I trim them for a while longer yet, or let them grow out?

Now- bangs getting long so you have to imagine them properly trimmed:


With them brushed to the side as I'd try to train them to do if I didn't cut them:


So, what is your vote?

1) Bangs call attention to the eyes, so they may help highlight how pretty her big dark eyes are.

2) If she has an oval face, I'd think either bangs or no bangs would work. If her face is round, broader at the cheeks with a narrower forehead (I'm not sure what shape this is?), or if she has a particularly high or low forehead, then having a fringe may bring a nice balance to her face shape.

(For instance, my sis always wears bangs because she thinks her forehead is disproportionally tall.)

Honestly, she looks cute in both photos! :)

Oh, regarding round faces, I might consider side-parted bangs for a round face. Sometimes bangs that come straight down can look too severe on this face shape.

(However, it doesn't look like her face is round, so this is probably not applicable!)

Her hair has grown! She's so adorable. I think she looks cute with bangs. :)

She is just beautiful either way!

I'm usually not a huge fan of bangs. But on Sasha, they are REALLY cute. Even grown out and in her eyes. ;-)

I guess I vote for the trim. She looks too grown up with them swept to the side- and we know they grow up too fast without us moms helping matters!

well you already know i think she is freaking adorable either way...though i have to admit i'm always partial to "let it grow"...of course this means going through the awkward stage where you always have to put a clip in it...do you think you can handle that??? lol

She's gorgeous either way :) :)

The bangs seem to keep her youthful a little longer, I think, and the "swept to the side" look is more grown up.
