There's a huge difference between a heavy fringe and a side-swept style like curtain bangs. And then, somewhere in between sits the most perfect fringe trend, which brings out the best in both styles: the French girl fringe. This look also just happens to be ideal for the warmer months.
Inspired by '70s icon Jane Birkin, this hair trend has quickly come back around and is making waves across the pond in New York City. "French girl fringes have gained popularity in New York due to their effortless appeal, which aligns perfectly with the city's style ethos," explains Antoinette Beenders, Aveda senior vice president of Global Artistry. "Particularly during the humid summer months, this low-maintenance fringe is ideal as it complements various hair lengths and looks especially charming when hair is styled up."
