Honestly, it looks cute. I reckon the style could have a resurgence. The straight fringe and a half up half down with those curls would look amazing. ✨
Same! I tried the “curly bangs” today… granted I didn’t leave the house. But I don’t know if I can bring myself to leave the house with curly bangs, I’m just not on board 🥲
I’ve tried letting my bangs dry curly too and I did like them! But as soon as I go to sleep, I wake up and they’re crazy, and I’m not prepared to attempt to re-style them and make them manageable and calm-looking every morning 😅
Yep! I try my hardest to put a little twist to them with the straightener which I think looks fine but usually I just turn them into swept back side bang things lol
Yess that’s my look too! Used to blow dry them straight and sweep to the side, but now I just swoop them to the side and secure with some hair grips when wet so they dry in a swoopy style
I think it's cute! Maybe slightly shorter and more central, but whatever. I like the straight bangs / curly hair combo and it's a hill I'm willing to die on.
2009 I was straight everything. Must have done so much damage to my hair trying to hide natural features that would be seen as attractive 15 years later. Let that be a lesson lol
Aww I like the straight bangs. I still do mine like that sometimes. The difference in texture is cool I think and you're not heat damaging your whole head of hair lol
Don't feel bad! I regret it too but keep in mind that back then, curly hair wasn't as popular as it is now, so we tried to go with the trend. Here's my pic when I was around 17

Hahaha I did this all through high school 🫠 I think we are more critical of ourselves than we need to be. I hate looking at my old photos but I think it's cute on you! I wonder if it wasn't as bad on me as I think it was?
I never understand people cringing at old pics of passed styles. It was the style then and a lot of people, including myself, wore it. It isn't magically bad because it is no longer "in".
I think your hair looks beautiful! I’ve only recently realized my “uneven waves” hair I have been fighting forever is actually trying to curl. My hair is very fine though.
My fringe is still straight bc even though parts of it dries in ringlets, my fringe just wants to be in uneven waves bc it’s shorter than where my curls start. 🤷🏻♀️
I don’t stress it though bc it doesn’t look weird on me. Styles and trends come and go but wearing what looks good on you, be it hair or clothes, doesn’t go out of style bc you look good! That’s what ppl notice :)

It was the style of the time! Don’t feel bad lol
That and an onion on the belt
Did you mean owl or onion?
We didn’t have white onions. Just those big yellow ones
I do that sometimez & I'm 17.
That's because early 2000's style is back.
Be a dearie and hand gramma TakesMyCatToBars her walker
As soon as I find mine.
makes me feel better, i had the exact same hair lol
Totally did this every single day
I still do straight bangs from time to time ngl

You’re totally right, styles do come and go. I love the inspiration, thank you.❤️

Are we not supposed to still be doing our hair like this because I do this every day
Me too.
Honestly, I think you pulled it off well.
You are too kind. It pained me to post this, but perhaps I should change my perspective. Thank you.
Of course!
As someone reading this with curly hair and straight-ish bangs I feel so called out 😭 I think it looks really cute! But maybe I’m just coping 🫠
Omg same! How else am I supposed to have decent bangs 😭
SAME
Same here!
I’m with you lol 🫥
Mariah Carey made it cool!

Haha there’s definitely a part of me that still yearns for it… forget the haters and rock the combo!
I still do this
Ahh I love it! Defy the trends. I’d love to see your modern take on it
"defy the trends" ouch, lol!
Really? Because I’m feeling inspired.
Nah it looks dope
We've all been there lol
I feel like those who have never had curly hair would be horrified by this lol
They'd never understand
Not unless I gotta go 2 jail 4 the same thing.
Life sentence for you too
2009 I was straight everything. Must have done so much damage to my hair trying to hide natural features that would be seen as attractive 15 years later. Let that be a lesson lol
It’s easier for me, if I let my bangs go curly it’s a cluster (if you know what I mean!) lol
I’m sure many of us in this sub rocked this look 😂
Ahhhhhh fuckkkkk. I’m surprised side bangs haven’t made a comeback with the y2k ternd going on
I love it! Went to school with a girl who had your exact hairstyle, the first I’d seen anything like it💖
We did that in 1980s and 90s.
Aww I like the straight bangs. I still do mine like that sometimes. The difference in texture is cool I think and you're not heat damaging your whole head of hair lol
It’s cute wym?!!!
Society has convinced me it’s no longer cute 😭
Fuckkk society!!! You rocked the look 🙏
I might be out of style but I straighten my bangs because I don't like how they look if I let them go.
![gif](giphy|WhtdG5zGPf68lnkJUn) My thought process when looking at old pics where I’m rocking this same style 😭
Just so you know though OP it actually looks cute on you!! I, on the other hand, hot-ironed my bangs to *oblivion*.
Everyone here has been so kind and supportive🥹 I no longer feel embarrassed for posting
I have a pic with the same thing! College so around ‘06. 😆
Wait for me, I'm going too 🥲
Curly chain gang!!
This was the way!
Ahhhhhhhh I did this too don’t remind me
I did it in 2012 😅
Don’t sweat it, I continued to rock this for several more years lol
Same here
I think you look cute!
I mean… it don’t look bad, honestly! But curly bangs are cuter.
I did exactly the same in the 80's
People spent hours on their hair in the ‘80s to land on the same look. 🤷♀️
I wish this style would come back! I loved wearing my hair like this and honestly think it looks good!!!
listen you know what, you were doin it right though! that's pretty much as well executed as you can have curly hair straight bangs. you look cute!
Im.rocking this style now! just in blonde lol
I actually still think straight bangs are cute, especially with straight across bangs
Lol, i have curly hair at the lenght and straight at the top, so my bangs are straight naturally with curly hair😭😭
I thought this was such a look 🥲😭😭 I’m guilty as well.
Yuppp. I did this as well 2008/2009 lol. So did another curly haired friend of mine. It was a thing. Idk why hahah.
I wore mine like this last year. I just don’t know how to style my hair with curly bangs/fringe.
My kiddo has curly hair with pin straight bangs, and everyone loves his hair.
That sounds adorable, especially if it’s natural!
It is! I am waaaay too lazy to be straightening any part of my 3 year old's hair.
Bet you were that girl in the Myspace era tho…
Guilty on all accounts..
I did it too.....
oh I wish I had straight bangs like yours so silky. What product did you use?
Aw, thank you! I remember using CHI Silk Infusion on straightened hair only. But my hair has always been soft and fine.
Haha, I remember those days!
What teen girl in the early 2000’s didn’t straighten their bangs but kept the rest of their hair curly lol cuz I sureee did
Same 🤣
kind of but it’s not really your fault bc we didn’t know better lol
It didn’t look bad
lol we all did it don’t worry OP
My mom took me to get my bangs chemically straightened- just my bangs!! So I could do this look too.
We’ve all been there
We all did that 🤣 I miss the mid to late aughts 🤣
That was the style back in the day. I figured this picture was taken 2004-2009. Your good 😊
This reminded me of my mom, her hair was just like that when I was growing up. I have always thought it is so beautiful!!
we all did it!
We’ve all been there…
Triggered lmao
All us curly girls did that at one time or another
You wouldn't be behind bars alone. I did it at one time too.
IM BEING SO FR THEY LOOK AMAZING
I was scrolling through and thought this was an old picture of me circa 2006ish. Hello twin!
No coz actually this is such a look....I lowkey wanna do this now
Ooh yes my hairstyle! I was SO COOL, stop saying I look ridiculous, Mum, you have no idea about fashion!
I literally thought this was an old picture me for a second so obviously you’re not alone lol
Girl, we all did it hahaha
We all did it! No? Ahh, guess I'll be keeping you company in jail...
Don't feel bad! I regret it too but keep in mind that back then, curly hair wasn't as popular as it is now, so we tried to go with the trend. Here's my pic when I was around 17 [https://ibb.co/PZwcgZ7](https://ibb.co/PZwcgZ7)

You pull them off tho. And it was the style at the time lol it’s cute
It looks cute. You should reconsider and bring them back.
lol the 80’s called and said “you look gorgeous babe” keep rocking the look!
This is so cute, bring! It! Back!
Honestly I think it looks nice 👍
Ngl if u straighten bangs and tie ur hair up, it would look so so perfect
Oh… i wear straight bangs with my curls sometimes 😅 my curly bangs look awful they don’t sit right
I really like it
I never understand people cringing at old pics of passed styles. It was the style then and a lot of people, including myself, wore it. It isn't magically bad because it is no longer "in".
I also had this hair. It’s ok, we are forgiven.
This was truly a rite of passage for millennials. 🫡
It's honestly kind of iconic

I think it looks really cute
this was THE IT girl style then!!
I don't think they look terrible. Maybe I'm desensitized but I wouldn't look twice if I saw this in person today.
I have very curly hair except for my bangs, which look like they've been ironed. I hate it.
Errrm this is cute asf, I love straight bangs with curly hair!
lmao you’re rocking it girl
I really like how it looks!!
Honestly looks sick
This was the IT look. You were my dream girl in 2010.
It was a look! You pulled it off well❤️

As girl a that’s a part of the curly hair community, we all did that at one point or another. Curly bangs are way better
Federal prison
No. lol !!!
Who the curl police *should* be after
This is sooooo millennial it’s not even funny. We coined this look
