I have bangs that are growing out from being cut too short about four months ago.  Right now they reach the middle of my ear.  I have tried to do the "swoop" thing, as they are still a little too short to tuck behind my ear.  My problem is that they don't stick together.  The hair seperates into clumps and looks messy a few minutes after I leave the house.  Right now I slightly curl my bangs with a flat iron and then brush them over.  Should I be using a gel or something?  What do you ladies do to get your bangs to stay in one piece?  I hope this makes sense.  If it helps I'm going for the Aaliyah look, part on one side and swooped over, only my hair is not as long.  Thanks in advance.
