Other than buzzing your all of your hair off, growing a fringe is one of the few ways you can use your hair to noticeably change the shape of your face. Great for hiding big foreheads, or shortening longer face shapes, a carefully chosen fringe can give a whole new look not just to your hair, but your mug too.
But as with any game-changing styling trick, there’s scope to get it wrong. Like Javier Bardem in No Country for Old Men wrong. Or Pete Wentz.
To ensure your fringe complements your look, consider these four key aspects: its placement (side fringe versus traditional), length (long for rectangular or oval faces and short for round or square shapes), volume (either voluminous or sleek), and shape (rounded or angular). These considerations, along with your hair’s texture, density, and natural fall, help find a fringe style that suits you best.
