So after some thought I finally decided to grow out my bangs. Why are bangs such a dilemma? I was at that point where I needed a bang trim badly, or I needed to decide to just grow them out. The latter won out. And here are some of the images that lead to this painstaking (sarcasm) decision.

This one almost derailed my plan, but I held strong everyone. I'm growing my bangs out:)

I spent the last 2 years with my bangs grown out, then about 6 months ago, I chopped them back again. I think it's good to change it up every few years.
I think it is a tough decision! bangs totally frame your face and make or break how you feel about it. I can't wait to see pictures. We get pictures, right? You are so camera shy on this blog!
change is good! and so are headbands.
I'm so with you on this! I've had bangs since I was about 16 (now 26). It is so difficult to commit to growing them out, but I figure there's a hump you have to pass when they're brushing up against your eyelashes. That's when I leap for scissors! Best of luck! Love these looks, too. :)
I hear ya! I'm at the same place. I thought I decided to grow mine out last month, then found myself getting them trimmed. It felt good, but here I am again and... I'm growing them out for real now! Thanks for those inspiring pics too!
You won't regret this! I grew mine out two years ago and I would never wanna go back :) But, maybe that's just because I looked rediculous with bangs :p I do like'em on other people though...Good luck with it anyway!
I'm afraid of getting bangs because I'm nervous about what they'll look like growing out and then what if it looks awkward forever... sigh
Oh my gosh, that last pic makes me want to grow out my hair so that I can have bangs. You're beautiful and stylish either way.
Wishing you sunshine & cheer!
I love bangs and the whole messy bun thing...but it's so hard to keep them looking good...for every good day it seems there's 10 bad. I did just pin a photo to my fashion board for my daughter to see...the most charming young girl with the prettiest sideswept bangs. I don't think she'll go for it though.
ughh i need to get mine trimmed yet again. why is it your bangs grow faster than the rest of your hair?! its a mystery... good luck on the grow out! xo
haha I totally get this, I have to fight hard not to trim mine when I see a photo of a gorgeous girl with bangs... with would look nothing like that on me, as I very well know from past experiments!
good for you! I go back and forth on this one ;)
and I am totally with tiffany - we'll get pictures, right?
I love all the images you selected as your inspiration. Either way, you will look great.
