French Wispy Bangs: 21 Modern Ideas
French wispy bangs keep the fringe light around the eyes.
- French wispy bangs are lighter than a full blunt fringe, with visible separation that keeps the forehead from feeling completely covered.
- They blend naturally into curtain pieces, shags and long layers, making them flexible across straight, wavy and softly curled hair.
- The fringe usually needs small regular trims, but the airy shape is forgiving as it grows because longer pieces can sweep to the sides.
