Bored of your hairstyle? Try bangs!

Celebrities have often started fashion and beauty trends! When they sport a look, it becomes a style statement which many blindly follow even if it doesn't suit them. Recently, actress Eva Longoria, known for long, caramel-highlighted locks, opted for bangs to get a different look. The 'Desperate Housewives' star's new fringes give her a youthful and bohemian vibe, reports people.com. Her bangs are long enough to touch her eyebrows.

The cut can easily make her wear her hair straight or wavy. She also got a few inches trimmed off the bottom of her long tresses, further adding to the more low-key and low-maintenance vibe.

If you too wish to get bangs, you need to remember - choose one according to your face type. Hairstylist Asgar Saboo explains the different kinds of fringes which suit different face shapes.

Round Face - If you have a round face, you should try wispy bangs or side-swept fringes for balance, and to avoid adding a wider appearance to the face. Stay away from blunt bang shapes. Instead, try a layered, side-swept fringe that softens your strong jawline and focusesattention on your eyes.

Heart-shaped Face - Heart-shaped faces are wider at the brow and narrower at the chin, which typically adds up to attractive cheekbones. Soft, side-swept bangs accentuate your eyes and draw the focus away from a pointy chin. Ask your stylist to trim bangs vertically, rather than straight across, and to stop between the eyelids and the brows.

Long or Oblong Face - For longer or oblong faces, and those with high foreheads, bangs that are blunt, heavy or long will flatter your face shape and help to cut down on length. Ask for bangs that hit between the brow and the eyelash and are longer on the edges. Also read why short hair is in fashion.
