I received a lot of feedback from my “Bangs Are STILL the New Black” post about how to style bangs. I am not a trained hair person, but I have been dealing with my own bangs for years and I found an expert video to back up my basic technique - I just love the internet!
My Bang theory (the “little bang theory”) is that bangs are like cattle - and they need to be wrangled! You really need to trick them into doing what you want by using your hair brush, blow dryer (with a nozzle), and product. Start on wet hair and blow them straight down on to your forehead, then alternate between blowing them in the opposite direction as well as your intended direction. This confuses them and makes them easier to wrangle. Those cowlicks (appropriately named!) won't know what hit them. Then use hairspray to add weight to them and blow them over to your desired side. Clean bangs will not stay to the side, you need to use hairspray or styling product for texture. It becomes easy after awhile - just like riding a bike.
Come to think of it, my little bang theory could apply to men as well, they need to be wrangled in alternating directions and put in place with a little product. 
Eva Scrivo demonstrates how to achieve a straight bang and gives a great overview of technique. Take what works for you and adjust to your own hair type and desired style. Good Luck!

I wrote this over a year ago, but it still holds true!
I remember spending a year growing out my bangs out in 1998 to have the sleek one length hair do. Times have changed and I have chopped my locks to sport the bang look and I have never been happier!
I love bangs because they can create a great frame to your bone structure and highlight your best assets. If you have fab cheek bones, cutting bangs at that level will draw the eye to them. If you have gorgeous eyes, a shorter bang can add emphasis.
I am always looking for bridal beauty inspiration, but last night at the Oscars I didn’t have to imagine or translate for bridal at all.
Overall, I found the makeup and hair to be flawless. I love showing off beautiful bone structure, and these updos did just that. Kate Winslet’s hair stylist, Renato Campora, deserves an award for that amazing hairstyle. My biggest dilemma I have now is deciding which dress I want for my (next) wedding. I am torn between the dresses worn by Marisa Tomei and Anne Hathaway!!! What do you think?
Anyway, part of the bartering came full circle when Tec shot Joy Williams, who sang at our wedding. And then, to help me and ‘Oh, My Deer!' out, Joy modeled a couple new pieces! That pretty little head of hers gave the perfect home to Miss Idaline and Miss Bertie Ann, respectively. I know the following images aren't the most beautiful or artistically creative shots, but they showed off the hair pieces beautifully.
