Bella Hadid's New Fringe Is Perfect For Summer

Whether it's statement bangs a la Emily Ratajkowski or Nicola Peltz-Beckham's face-framing strands, fringes are back and better than ever.

The latest celeb to embrace the look is model Bella Hadid who showcased a fuller fringe in New York.

Hadid is known for her long brunette locks which often serves as a canvas for myriad beautiful styles from goddess tendrils to sophisticated up-dos. But her latest haircut is a refreshingly cool update on the side-swept baby bangs (created by hairstylist Evanie Frausto) she sported in Cannes.

There's a Seventies vibe to Hadid's new fringe, the softer edges are less severe than heavy, blunt bangs, making the look easy to recreate on different face shapes.

'Ask your stylist for a wispy fringe that sits just below the eyebrow, with face framing layers,' says Darren Bain, creative director at Taylor Taylor London. 'The extra bit of length allows for movement and shrinkage of the hair, so that when you style it wet, the fringe will naturally lift when it’s dry to sit just above the eyebrow.'

It's a cut that will add softness to angular faces, while those with a heart shape bone structure can go a little longer along the sides to balance the face. It's an easy one to style too, lending that French girl vibe to summery chignons and while looking equally chic when worn with laid-back locks.

'When air drying, use your hands to arrange the fringe where you want it to sit for a really natural look,' explains Bain. 'You can use a texturising spray for added movement and texture, and if you have curly hair, a spritz of leave-in conditioner will help with frizz.'
