The Bang Pendulum

If any of you guys follow Ask the Duplex on Instagram...
you know that a few days ago I had an extremely impulsive bang chop right before class.  

About five minutes before I was supposed to leave for Statistics..

....this happened
with an end result of this....


My bangs are like a pendulum.  Swinging back and forth between short and long- short when I have an impulsive bang trim and then long when I am busy. 

They go from short...

to long...
then back to short...
 then back to long...
 then back to short...
Then back to frizzy....I mean back to long

and so the pendulum swings back and forth and back and forth.....


But ever since my impulsive bang trim last week, I've been considering doing a FULL CHOP.  And when I say full chop, I mean chop those bad boys into some straight across bangs.

I've only had straight across bangs once when I was in college.  
Don't ask me why I am wearing a Lucky Charms shirt....Or, even why I owned a Lucky Charms shirt..



So, what I'm asking here is....Should I chop my bangs to be full-straight-across-my-forehead-bangs??

Please vote below, if you would.  I wouldn't want to make any rash decisions without hearing my roommates' input.

Gosh, your bangs grow out so nicely! Mine grow into this weird shape so I always chop them... and then instantly regret it :)

I love the pic of you with full bangs! I have full bangs myself and they are definitely dramatic, not as much versatility as a side bang that's for sure... maybe wait until after summer? I am dreading having these bad boys on my forehead during the sweltering months ahead :(

To cut or not to cut...a classic binomial distribution.

Go for it. Bangs grow quickly and you can rock anything. I recently chopped mine straight across and love them. XO!

I like the blunt bangs on you, but they are a lot of work to maintain.

i recently got the full on bangs, after about a year and a half of "yes! i'll do it" to "no never ever ever." (so maybe i'm a little indecisive....) but i got them a couple months ago, and honestly, i'm secretly loving it. they are more work to maintain, but i think it's worth it. but they look pretty good on you. also, no ones else has this look so you'll be all original.

Oh, Monica--we have yet to meet but I've heard so many wonderful and wonderfully funny stories about you from Whitney and Shannon (and Brad!) that I feel like I know you. That series of photos was great and the second to last one made me laugh out loud, despite having a sleeping baby just a few feet away. It's easy to see why your dearest friends praise you to the high heavens. And just for the record, I think you look great with the long or short bang. I'd keep the sideswept version as it frames your beautiful face.
