Rather than the standard bangs, influencers on TikTok are trying to change the game among Gen Z by introducing the V bangs cut.
Will this rise as a new trend this 2024?
In particular, this type of haircut is achieved by carving the bangs in the shape of the letter, "V," cutting the longest point between the eyebrows and the shortest points at the temples.
Nora (@pplplsr), a TikToker who posts content about haircare and styling is among those creators who are introducing the V bangs to the younger audience.
In her videos, she educates people about the pros and cons of getting this unconventional type of bangs.
"I think it's kinda cute. It's very different. Definitely, like an attention grabber, I guess," asserted Nora, hinting at its advantage.

However, she also shared its downside, and said, "It's too hard to style this. They don't stay straight. Like, when I first did it, they were super cute and the line was super precise. But now it's not, like, they just look like, messy. And I don't wanna have to do it every single day."
In response to this, other TikTokers who are huge fans of V bangs are sharing tips on how to tame the hair and maintain its shape. User @thedevilroams, a 06-liner with about 400k likes shared her routine.
She started by soaking the bangs, followed by blowdrying them using a thin round brush. She continued by straightening the hair, brushing it again before styling it to the shape that one preferred, before locking it with a hairspray.

Jaden, another TikToker known for her V bangs also shared her tips to cut the shape successfully.
"I try to line the scissors up with the front of my brows and cut upwards the longer you leave the middle the more sharp it will be. Don't make the sides too short or they'll start standing straight up," she noted.
