I am a no bangs gal - I hate hair in my face!
My dd 14 has long side sweeping "bangs" and my dd2 - I am growing her hair out to one length.
Honestly - I just hate doing my hair. I have really long brown hair with highlights with layers and it does not take much to do...just a little straightening and I am good to go....
I think most women look better with bangs than without. I also have a high forehead and look better with them. Mine are slanted, sideswept bangs. In my opinion, I definitely look better with! I'm the blonde:
