A gorgeous language, incredible fashion, brilliant architecture, and all the bread and cheese you can eat…we can’t seem to find a thing we don’t love about France! Just as we thought we’ve found everything there is to love about French culture, something new appears. This time, it’s the French Girl Fringe hairstyle.
Step One: The Cut
The most noticeable aspect of the French girl fringe hairstyle is, of course, the cut! Getting the perfect cut will take a very talented stylist, so begin your search there. Make sure you go to someone you trust and someone who knows your hair texture.
Then, once you’ve arrived at your appointment, your stylist will take it from there. If your hair’s on the longer side, and you’d like to keep it that way, your stylist will cut your hair with the perfect balance of length and fringed edges that sit as far down as your cheeks. Though, if your hair is already about shoulder length, or you would like a shorter fringe, the edges will finish much higher. Regardless of the length of your hair, the fringe cut will be layered to perfectly frame your face and offer a sleek dimension to your features.
Step Two: The Color
French girl fringe is all about natural, earth tones. It’s very natural, ethereal, and classic. So, this means that you will never see this hairstyle in out-of-the-box colors like blues, greens, or platinum. Rather, it’s very common to see this style in a chocolate brown, soft blonde, or an autumn auburn at most.
The French have a way of looking effortlessly undone, yet done, and by getting a hair color that is likely to be a more natural hair color, you’ll grasp this trend better than you would with bright red or colorful hair. If you have naturally lighter hair and opt for a darker french girl fringe, we recommend using a shampoo and conditioner set that will prolong the life of your new dark color like Redken Color Extend Brownlights Shampoo and Conditioner.
Step Three: The Styling
There are two important hair products necessary when styling your French girl fringe. The first is a brilliant hairdryer, like Sam Villa Professional Light Professional Ionic Blow Dryer. While you’re blow-drying your strands, keep the airflow pointed in a downward direction, so that you can add smoothness to your fringe, instead of massive volume. Also, work your fingers through your hair to pull the strands down.
Then, once you’ve finished drying your hair, it’s time for your second necessary hair product; the hair mist! To capture the softness and effortlessness of the French girl fringe, use the Keune Style Soft Set Spray No 57 to finish off your styling. This styling mist is a weightless hairspray that will offer a flexible hold that’s perfect for this look!
