French bangs are chic, effortless, and timeless like the French girls themselves. As this hairstyle has been trending, you might have questions as to how French bangs differ from other styles of fringe. While other versions of fringe tend to be heavier and fuller, French bangs are wispy at the ends while maintaining volume and fullness at the roots of the hair. This version of fringe blends seamlessly into the sides of the face to give the laissez-faire French vibe.
Celebrities like Daisy Edgar-Jones and Elizabeth Olsen have experimented with the effortlessly wispy French bangs. It girl, icon, and muse for Hermès' Birkin bag Jane Birkin rocked breezy, never-quite-put-together French bangs throughout the late '60s and '70s. French actress, singer, and model Brigitte Bardot may have coined the French bang look with her piece-y, seamless fringe. Here's a look at some of L'OFFICIEL's favorite French bang inspiration to show your hairdresser this season.
