Bangs (hair)
Bangs (North American English) or a fringe (British English, Australian English and New Zealand English) are strands or locks of hair that fall over the scalp's front hairline to cover the forehead, usually just above the eyebrows, though can range to various lengths. While most modern Western hairstyles cut the bangs straight, they may also be shaped in an arc or left ragged. Terminology The term ''bangs'' originally referred to hair cut ''bang-off'' (i.e., straight across at the front), although the term is now applied to diverse forms of hair styling. It is probably related to ''bang-tail,'' a term still used for the practice of cutting horses' tails straight across. The term ''fringe'' refers to the resemblance of the short row of hair to ornamental fringe trim, such as those often found on shawls.

Bowl Cut
A bowl cut is a simple haircut where the front hair is cut with a straight fringe (see Bangs (hair), bangs) and the rest of the hair is left longer, the same length all the way around, or else the sides and back are cut to the same short length. It is named so because in medieval times, when it was popular in Europe, a bowl would be placed on the head and then used as a cutting guide to trim the hair. History Historically, the bowl cut was popular among common European and Asian men, being an easy, neat cut done by a non-professional. Indeed, it was done by putting a cooking pot of a fit size to the level of ears, and all hair below the rim was cut or shaved off. In some cultures it was a normal type of haircut. In other cultures the bowl cut was viewed as an attribute of poverty, signifying that the wearer could not afford to visit a barber. In the United States, the bowl cut was never particularly popular. At least as far back as the 1980s, the cut has been ridiculed by ma ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The name is derived from the mythological pixie. History The pixie cut was first popularized in the 1950s, when Audrey Hepburn wore the style in ''Roman Holiday'' (1953). "Hepburn went a long way to making short hair mainstream and got a lot of credit for popularizing the pixie cut," explains hair historian Rachael Gibson. Jean Seberg sported a pixie cut for Otto Preminger's ''Bonjour Tristesse'' (1958) and Jean-Luc Godard's '' Breathless'' (1960). Further in the 1960s, the look was worn by actress Mia Farrow (notably in '' Rosemary's Baby'' from 1968), British model Twiggy, American model, actress and socialite Edie Sedgwick, and ''Laugh-In'' (1968–73) star Goldie Hawn.
