Bored and want to give your curls a makeover?

According to a recent article, bangs have become a traditional symbol of the stress and life crises that lead to a "mental breakdown," and this quarantine period, you have a reason to!

Despite the trend in cutting your hair out of boredom, folks on social media posts are warning women not to go that route. But who cares if you have a lot of time to grow your hair back, right?

Additionally, naturalistas or body positivity advocates have normalized and even slew curly bangs for years. This paved the way to a generation of women embracing their natural locks.

Curly bangs give your locks a fresh look, and, when done correctly, it's a fun way to upgrade your style. Here are seven looks that squash the internet's claim that it's "uncool" to get bangs and will perhaps inspire you to pick up a pair of scissors yourself possibly:
