I've had bangs since before I started doing tri's. I just pull my hair back as usual and clip my bangs down (with one of those basic metal ones) on top of my head. I use a clip for my bangs when I swim too (bangs are hard to get under a swim cap). I don't have any problems. And bangs look cute when you aren't training. :)

Are bangs the same as a fringe?? If so, I've always had a fringe and just wear a hat when I run. I've never had any problems.

I have had bangs for 15 years along with a classic bob. I never wear a hat while running and have no problems with my hair. They do look mashed down and split in the middle after cycling with the helmet, but no one's hair looks good after a helmet. They are easy and dry fast. No problems whatsoeer. Enjoy a nice change.

Funny, I got my haircut on Wednesday and had some thick bangs cut in. I just twisted them to the side and clipped with a bobby pin. My hair is super fine and thin, so I don't need anymore muscle than a small pin.

Do it! It's a a cute and fun-funky look. I decided it was bangs or botox to hide the crevass in my forhead. Bangs are a lot cheaper ;-)

Thanks - I will try it. I have had the same ol' long hair gong for years (with little variation on length and layering) - I am ready for a change. Plus, bangs seem to be very trendy.

I've always had bangs and while I often want to grow them out I need them to hide the huge wrinkles/creases in my forehead. I figure I'm always going to have a barrette or two and a rubber band in while I'm exercising or wear a hat so I don't worry that much about them. The one thing I do try not to get is layers that are too short in the front. Otherwise I end up needing about 10 barrettes to keep my large amounts of hair out of my face.

Yeah, think Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction.
