Whether you are sporting a soft curtain fringe or a blunt statement cut, the secret to a great look lies in the styling. At Assort Melbourne, we believe your bangs should frame your face beautifully every single day, not just when you leave the salon.

How to Style Your Bangs

To maintain that professional finish at home, our Melbourne stylists recommend these essential steps:

  • The Foundations: Bangs pick up natural oils quickly. To keep them light, use K18 AirWash™. It’s a high-performance non-aerosol dry shampoo that strengthens hair while removing odor and oil.

  • Texture & Control: For a natural, lived-in feel, apply a small amount of EVO Haze Styling Powder. It provides matte volume without making the hair feel sticky.

  • The Perfect Finish: If you prefer a sleek look, a drop of Assort’s signature hair oil will tame flyaways and provide that coveted healthy glow.

  • Heat Protection: Never blow-dry without protection. EVO Icon Welder is our go-to for shielding your fringe from heat damage while adding a touch of hold.
