The long, wispy bang resurgence has been brewing for some time now. Finally, a bright spot in my growing-out journey. Pushing my own heavy valance of hair aside, I figured I only had about two inches to go before I’d have my own long, groovy, ’70s-esque bangs. They were long enough to be pulled back into a high ponytail, but short enough to frame her face when they were down. It’s platinum blonde, usually in some level of disarray, and is fringed at the front with sweet, soft curtain bangs that fell below her cheekbones, and a little above her jaw.
The plot isn’t really relevant to this post what is relevant to this post is that the show’s protagonist, Suzie, played by Billie Piper, has incredible hair. I Hate Suzie is about an actress whose life starts to fall apart after her phone is hacked and explicit photos of her are leaked online. I had come to terms with the fact that I had nothing to look forward to, hair-wise, for a very long time, when I sat down to watch HBO’s I Hate Suzie, and had an epiphany.
Working from home meant that fewer people would see me during the awkward, swoopy period of growing out bangs where I’d have the same hair as My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way in 2008, but I was still a long way off from my end goal: having the same hair as Gerard Way in 2019. It would take months for my hair to traverse the six or so inches from my eyebrows to the bottom of my chin.
The road ahead looked long, grueling, lonely. Going to salons every month or so wasn’t really an option anymore, so it seemed like a good time to return to a forehead-forward lifestyle. I loved my fringe, but I wasn’t great at trimming it on my own. A couple of months ago, I embarked on the journey of growing out my bangs.
