Hairstyling help

<p>I got this ugly ass haircut yesterday. It's not that bad in the back but the bangs are HORRIFIC. They're really short, and I don't look good with short bangs. When I leave it that way I look like an 8-year old kid. So, I decided that I should use some hairstyling product to make it stick up kinda casually in the front, except I have minimal knowledge about these things. </p>

<p>It needs to be strong enough to hold it up but I don't want the shiny stickiness of gel or the hardness of hairspray. . . just something that I can apply easily and use every day for the next three months or so (until it all grows out). Any suggestions?</p>
