My bangs keep getting in my face and its really annoying. I'm thinking I should use hair clips, but won't that look dumb? Please consult the mathematical graph for reference on what my hair looks like (yes, I wear black tinted prescription glasses).
Is there a good way to hide hair clips? Should I just change my entire hair style?
I would ask such questions to IRL female friends if I had any.

I think barrette style clips are cute and don't need to be hidden. they're also pretty in fashion. i use plain black ones from time to time but you can go flashier with it too

It does look cute. But I don't think my hair is long enough to use it?

They're functional, primarily. If your hair is long enough that they perform the function of keeping it out of your face then your hair is long enough to use them
But also as someone else said, grow it a little longer and this stops being an issue

this isn’t real styling/fashion advice but if getting in your face is the only matter of concern, just grow it longer and you can brush it behind your ears more easily

Hair pins work really well for keeping bangs/long hair out of your face. Practice with tucking them behind a layer of hair from further back towards your ears until it gets easy. Pin it back, leave a little bit of hair out so that it covers the pinned-back hair. That's the most discreet way to do it. They're good for wrangling hair in general, get a set, they wind up being handy.
Clips are an option as well and if you poke around you can find some cute ones that work as accessories too.
A lot of this is just trial and error. Play around in the mirror until you find a look that you like!
