Do you remember my Fringe Benefit post, where I was shamelessly obsessing over fringed haircuts that some lovely bloggers and celebrities sport. I finally got a hold on all my insecurities and fears and did it!!
Some of you who are blessed with hair that grows at a rate of 5 inches per day, might not understand what the fuss is all about. However, those like me who oil their hair everyday and try all kinds of magic oils, just in the hope that their hair would grow even a millimeter would understand. Its about being stuck with something you hate, even if it is just for a few days, trust me those few days can have a soul crushing impact for life. Yes, a bad haircut can be that serious.
Here is how it went down..
I have had a fringe for a few days now and I have to honestly say that I have no regrets. Do I love it always? No!! Do I hate it ever? No, but I do love it on most days.
Pros
Its the easiest way to glam up a little without having to play with curling wands, straighteners and juggling paddle brushes and blow dryers. Honestly, I an pretty lazy in that department, I just never can get myself to spend an hour doing up my hair. But, I also know that glam hair is the easiest way to glam up the drabbest of looks..so a fringe is great. Run a comb through it an you are good to go.
And on days when it comes in the way, like when you are trying to watch "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and taking notes about every detail of her classic looks - all you can see is strands of your hair..well on those occasions, just use some cute pins or a hairband.
Cons
Regular haircuts required, cannot possible have one just once in six months!! (It might be a blessing in disguise)
I would not recommend trying it for the first time during the sweltering scorching summer heat.
Other than that all good...let me know what you thing..
Love

Welcome to the club! You look super-pretty! I've had a fringe for years now, and totally agree with everything. It's the best way to glam-up in a jiffy, esp. with naturally poker-straight hair like mine that simply refuses to be styled. On days when it gets in the way or for work meetings I simply gather it up into a pouf. It also takes years off the face, I think ;-) And when it grows, I trim it myself at home :-)
ReplyDeleteoh ur talented...I would not dare to do the trimming myself!! :)
DeleteI loved a fringe back in college and now I keep it long,not daring to experiment!bu this looks good on you :)

Hi Abhilasha, I came across your blog few days back and am trying to catch up by going through all the archives. I love your style and your ability to transform pieces into unique and beautiful outfits. And yes, love the fringe too. :)
ReplyDeletePlease check out my blog if you find time.

I am happy to know that I am not the only one to have this fear. I am going to go get fringes as well. Just cause you gave me the courage to do it. and the fact of the mattter that, if i dont like it, I could always hide it is a great relief and it does grow back easily. So I am going to take the plunge soon.
ReplyDeleteI am going to do a whole hair makeover though. I also did a post on how I am going to change up my hair. Would love it if you could let me know what you think.
Xoxo

ReplyDeleteHey your fringe/bangs are lookin superb !! Hawttt
ReplyDeletei read your blog regularly abhilasha and feel its awesome...
ReplyDeleteI have always had fringes or bangs and i feel that make me feel what I am . you know at times when my bangs grow and i tie them to have a simple look, my friends start saying they cannot recognise me... So recently after managing for 6 months without any fringes, I did get another cut and finally felt that I was me...
So much about me Abhilasha... but you look awesome with the fringe. Infact, sometime for fun you can try spiral curls in your hair with the fringe left straight. You are such a beautiful woman and this has only enhanced your look.
