If this year's hair trends are anything to go by, it's clear to see that the fringe is back with a bang (no pun intended). I've written extensively about fringes, but it was only when Daisy Edgar-Jones stepped out with her fringe earlier this year that I genuinely started to consider getting one myself. A fringe is a great way to switch up your hairstyle without doing anything drastic with the length of your hair, and it suits every hair length from long hair to those with a bob haircuts and short hairstyles. Right now, I'm considering an eyebrow-framing fringe hairstyle, so I tapped an expert hairstylist to share everything we need to know about this style of fringe, as well as researching the best eyebrow-framing fringe hairstyles to take to the salon. Scroll ahead for everything you need to know.
What is an eyebrow-framing fringe?
Unlike a blunt fringe or side-swept fringes, eyebrow-framing fringes are cut to softly graze or outline the brows, adding dimension to the face and bringing attention to your eyes. They are often referred to as curtain fringes, bottleneck bangs or Bardot or Birkin bangs. This style suits a variety of face shapes and hair types, making it a serious chic and timeless hairstyle. "For me it’s when the fringe has a break in it and isn’t heavy, more like a 70s fringe and slightly wingy," says Hershesons hairstylist, Jordan Garrett.
The great thing about eyebrow-framing fringes is that they can be styled as a messy fringe that skims the eyes, or styled neat and smooth as a curtain fringe to add shape to your face. It's a fringe that suits every face shape and has the vibe of a cool-girl, French-girl fringe.
What to consider before getting an eyebrow-framing fringe hairstyle
So, what should you consider before getting this type of fringe? The first thing is speaking to your hairstylist to "Make sure the texture blends with rest of your hair," says Garrett. "If your hair is soft and shaggy, for example, have soft shaggy fringe. If your hair heavier on the ends, you go a slightly heavier fringe," he says. According to Garrett, this is a fringe that can suit everyone. "I feel there is something for everyone or a version of it," he says.
How to style an eyebrow-framing fringe hairstyle
You're probably wondering how to style your fringe, and it can take some getting used to—especially if this is your first time getting a fringe. "It all depends what look you are going for," says Garrett. "If you going for a undone look, I would only rough dry the fringe, stretching your fringe left to right, and right to left. Or, if you going for a more polished look, you can use a round brush to get a nice high shine and shape," he says.
