Everyone goes through a phase in their life (at least once) where they consider getting a fringe cut in. While in can seem like a daunting commitment, it’s also one of the easiest ways to change up your hairstyle if you want to try something new. Plus, there are plenty of options to choose from no matter what your hair type, texture, or face shape – curtain, blunt, micro, side-swept – the list goes on…
“Fringes are timeless because they’re so flattering,” says hairstylist and salon owner Melissa Timperley. “They’re a great way to draw attention to your eyes and also to contour the face.” So what’s the most low maintenance fringe shape you can go go for? “The grown out bangs style where they’re cut to cheekbone length or even what we call ‘the blogger fringe’ which is slightly shorter in the middle and then curves out and is longer at the sides,” says Timperley. “These styles are really popular at the moment because they’re easy to grow out, you can push them to one side or the other, and they’re easy to style back in an up-do.”
