Since the “Korean Wave” swept the globe, almost every category can see the shadow of the “Korean Wave”, such as in the hairstyle aspect, the trend led by Korean girls, the “airy bangs”, and the “eight-character bangs” have been popular for a while. However, this Korean-style hairstyle trend seems to be receding recently, replaced by the French style that is sweeping the hair world! Following the previously introduced hot French Bob, another hairstyle full of strong French style – the “French bangs” has quietly become a major hairstyle trend this season!
First of all, let’s clarify what “French bangs” are for everyone. French bangs are relatively thick and dense, with a length that can just cover the eyebrows or fall just above them, with a slight curve. This kind of bangs carries a natural messy beauty, full of lazy elegance, can make people exude the casual temperament of French girls, and can effectively modify the face shape. Since “fluffy mess” is the essence of French bangs, there is no need to deliberately comb it too flat, which indirectly saves a lot of styling time, making it very popular during this lazy stay-at-home period. However, there are some things to note before and after cutting French bangs.
拿捏好平衡
Everyone should pay attention to the length of French bangs to maintain a balance with the length of their own hair. If you have a bob hairstyle, it’s okay to cut the bangs slightly shorter; but if you have long hair, remember not to make the bangs too short, as it not only cannot modify the face shape, but may even make the face appear rounder and larger! When cutting French bangs for long-haired girls, you can cut the sides to a point just above the cheekbones, which can have a slimming effect on the face.
吹整技巧
Although French bangs do not require deliberate styling, a little skill is still needed when blow-drying to achieve a more excellent effect. When blow-drying, you can use your fingers instead of a comb to smooth the bangs, allowing them to retain a natural messy feel. Blow the hair upwards to make it smoother and create just the right amount of curvature.
定期修剪
Styling French bangs is not time-consuming or difficult, but remember to trim them regularly, otherwise, if they get too long, they will look too messy and lose the original messy beauty. You can trim them gently point by point according to the overall structure of your bangs, so you don’t have to worry about accidentally cutting them too short or uneven.
更換髮色
Most French girls are loyal to their natural hair color, so black is definitely the best color to complement French bangs, giving an overall more elegant French temperament. In addition, other dark tones close to black such as deep brown, brown tea, etc. are perfect matches for French bangs, making them appear more textured and defined. However, try to avoid overly bright hair colors as much as possible, as it will disrupt the natural beauty that French bangs advocate.
使用定髮產品
Due to the French-style bangs emphasizing a fluffy feel, we can use hair products as assistance to maintain the airy feel of the bangs, such as spraying styling spray, which can fix the volume of the bangs even in the hot and humid summer, without becoming flat. However, be careful not to spray too much, as it may reduce its soft feel and appear unnatural. In addition, you can also carry a small dry shampoo with you to refresh the bangs when they become sticky.
