BANGS Meaning and Definition

  1. Definition:

    Bangs, also known as a fringe in British English, refers to a hairstyle in which the hair is cut to fall across the forehead, covering all or a part of the forehead. This style involves cutting the hair shorter at the front so that it forms a horizontal line above the eyebrows.

    Bangs can come in various lengths, thicknesses, and shapes, depending on personal preference and current fashion trends. They can be straight, layered, side-swept, blunt, or textured, among other variations.

    Bangs serve both aesthetic and practical purposes. From a fashion perspective, they can enhance facial features and change the overall appearance of a person. They can frame the face, accentuate the eyes, or soften sharp angles of the face. Additionally, bangs can be used to disguise certain facial features or imperfections.

    On a practical note, bangs can help to control oily or greasy foreheads by absorbing excess sebum. They can also conceal wrinkles or fine lines on the forehead, making the person look younger.

    Bangs have been popular throughout different historical periods and have continued to have a significant presence in contemporary hairstyling. They are often associated with youthfulness, versatility, and a touch of playfulness when it comes to personal style.

Etymology of BANGS

The word "bangs" originated from the Middle English word "bang" which referred to a fringe of hair cut straight across the forehead. The term "bang" itself was borrowed from the Old Norse word "bǫng" or "banga" meaning "to beat" or "to strike". This is likely because the hair is cut in a way that it "strikes" or hangs over the forehead. Over time, "bang" was pluralized to "bangs" to refer to this specific style of hair.
