What's the Perfect Fringe Style?

We're seeing it everywhere this year. The Alexa haircut (inspired by Alexa Chung) with bold bangs has become one of the most coveted looks right now. It's a great twist on a Bob (or "lob") that is just as trendy and can work for just about all face shapes. If you've wanted to mix up your look, and try fringe again, this is the perfect cut to start with. It can easily be morphed into other looks and is very versatile, so it doesn't look the same every day.

Thick bangs can be pushed aside or worn straight across your forehead. Layers can be longer in order to be able to still twist up in an updo. The layers can be shorter, giving you more texture.

Ombre or dipped ends are a fantastic addition to the Alexa, giving your cut a bit more depth and interest.

Any way you wear it, this cut frames your face and draws the eye in, making it an easy pairing for a bold eye or lip.

Are you going to try the Alexa this season?
