Hairstyles From The 70s
Let’s take a look at some of the sexiest hairstyles from the 70s with bangs that rocked and will rock when we wear them right 2016 onwards.
1. If you fancy a messy and nonchalant look, you could try wearing your bangs in one of the hairstyles from the 70s in a messy way. Play with the bangs on the forehead and allow them to fall free and wild. Perfect for a night out with the girls and daring the boys to come closer to you.
2. Another way to emulate the hairstyles from the 70s with bangs of course would be to let it sit sideways on your forehead and fringe. Keeping the hair medium length to the bust line or longer, you would have a sexy avatar to flaunt for a party night.
3. The iconic bang look of the 70s was when women wore their hair loose and with bangs flowing straight from the forehead and into their eyebrows. Much ado about nothing and no fuss or elaborate hair products to use, this particular look from the many hairstyles from the 70s is what we want back.
4. Very long bangs with a bouffant back brush on the crown of the head, reminiscing the styles of the 50s and the 60s stuck along in the 70s. Paired with twiggy eyes, women brought about an innocent rage and charm wearing long bangs.
5. Wavy bangs were meant for women with wavy hair or women with straight hair who wanted to doll up in another look altogether. Soft curls were placed on the bangs and side brushed for a very vintage effect; even with long hair- so it wasn’t the norm of having the 50s waves in the 70s for short haired girls only.
6. Ponytail bangs were popular amongst the PYTs who wanted a touch of the good old 60s in the 70s. The 70s style hairstyle was a bomber for sure, when girls ran around in boyfriend shorts, knotted shirts and bell-bottoms.

7. Women wore their beautifully with soft curls and waves, and with plenty of soft bangs to throughout the 70s. The look was that of feminine charms and was a delightful way to flaunt the sensual appeal as well.
9. Jennifer Lopez (singer and Hollywood celebrity) recently sported the full fringe bangs at one of her interviews, which reminds us much of the sexy hairstyles with bangs worn by many women back in the 70s. Ask any of the moms out there who were PYTs back then, and they would show you their Eastman colour pictures denoting the hairstyle.
10. If you have long wavy hair and that wears itself thin, you could opt for one of the cutest hairstyles with bangs; brushed to the side and the tresses left messy and wild. Women back in the 70s as mentioned were a nonchalant lot when it came to hairdos, and wore their hair very rarely with the help of accessories or products to style the tresses with.
