before/after- i cut real bangs

SHOULD I HAVE DONE ITโ€ฆ

2025/3/24 Edited to

... Read moreCutting bangs can be a significant decision, both stylistically and emotionally. Many people consider bangs to reflect a bold change in their look, but itโ€™s important to weigh the pros and cons before taking the plunge. First, consider your face shape; bangs can enhance or detract from your overall appearance depending on your features. For example, side-swept bangs can elongate a round face, while blunt bangs can soften a square jaw. Also, think about your lifestyleโ€”bangs require regular trims and styling to maintain their look. Documenting your journey, like before and after photos, can provide insight and motivation for others contemplating a similar change. Itโ€™s reassuring to see the transformation and can foster a supportive community among those experimenting with their hair. Whether you aim for that chic, sophisticated vibe or a playful, carefree aesthetic, bangs are a versatile option to refresh your style.

Before and After I started EATING CLEAN
#caloriedeficit #lemon8challenge #progress I started eating clean staying away from too much sugar. But still eating a balanced meal so I get healthy sugar, fats, and carbs! I didnโ€™t necessarily eat in a calorie deficit, maybe a slight one. But I most focused on eating only clean meals.
