Things To Consider Before Asking Your Hairdresser For A French Fringe

The french fringe is a top hair choice for women from all walks of life. Whether you’re living life to the fullest on the red carpet or going about your daily duties, this hairdo can work wonders for you in more ways than you can imagine.  Unlike many other fringes, the french fringe has graced the spotlight due to its versatility. No matter your personality type, face shape, and hair texture, this hairstyle can be tailored to fit it. The trick lies in the level of expertise of the hairstylist.  Glamour magazine says the french fringe is the hairstyle for 2020

THERE’S MORE TO A FRENCH FRINGE THAN JUST APPEAL…

Every woman wants to look her best and this is exactly what the french fringe promises. If you’re considering getting one, however, don’t rush to your salon just yet. From constant maintenance to daily spot washing, you may need to do more than just flaunt your sexy do. Stick around to learn all you should bear in mind and know before taking the brave leap into the french fringe world:

YOUR FACE SHAPE MATTERS

When it comes to pulling off a french fringe, your face shape calls the shots. Most people assume that hard and blunt fringes work for any face but this is far from true. Here are some face shapes and the best type of french fringe for them:

A HEART-SHAPED FACE

This type of face shape can look great with just about any fringe. However, a Brigitte Bardot-Esque fringe does it more justice. It highlights the centers of interest of the face, such as the brows and cheekbones and has that natural masterpiece-look to it.

A ROUND FACE SHAPE

Round-faced individuals have a rounded chin and the sides of their face curve slightly outward rather than assuming a straight look. A sweeping side fringe has got just the stuff to add balance to the face.

For a longer-face look, please consider asking your hairstylist to leave it slightly longer at the edges.

A SQUARE FACE SHAPE

Unique features of this type of shape are the sides of the face being straight, and a slightly-angled jawline with an almost unnoticeable curve. A soft, layered, sweeping fringe style brings out the best of the face shape while maintaining focus on your cracking bone structure.

AN OVAL FACE SHAPE

People with an oval shape have foreheads that are just a tad wider than their chin, that’s curved. A longer and heavier fringe pairs great with this type of shape.

DO YOU HAVE FINE HAIR?

Fine hair, especially the type that gets oily fast, isn’t the best for a french fringe. The texture doesn’t have the strength to maintain a lovely fringe.

If you’re determined to get a fringe at all costs, however, a super thick fringe might be the right look for you.

YOU MAY NEED TO USE OTHER HAIR-CARE PRODUCTS

The deal with a french fringe is it needs constant blow-drying to maintain its wonderful appearance. This leaves your hair prone to damage from the heat.  Damaged hair breaks a lot, have plenty of split ends, and are brittle. The best way to protect your precious hair is by investing in hair products that will nourish and keep it safe.

YOU CAN’T CUT YOUR FRINGE

No matter how simple it may look, cutting out your fringe is asking for trouble. Chances of you cutting an even fringe are close to zero. The disaster videos on Facebook are one of the reasons to let a professional handle the job.  Another valid reason is the amount of time your hair may take to recover from the ordeal; several weeks? A month, perhaps? The last thing you’d want is to walk around with a do that attracts a grimace from everyone.

GROWING OUT A FRINGE IS A PIECE OF CAKE

There’s a common belief that a french fringe is just another unnecessary headache. That growing one makes you look unkempt or will take years. Far from it. With regular trips to the salon so it can get cut into and blended into the hair at the sides of your face, you’re ready to grow out a killer fringe in 3 or 4 months.  Show your commitment and let your hairstylist and beautiful locks handle the rest. The effort you have to put in is nothing compared to the perfect french fringe you get in the end!
