If youâve been wanting to try bangs for a while, this fall is the perfect time to do so. Celebrity hairstylist and Fekkai Five ambassador Jenny Cho says to go all in with face-framing fringe.
Fringe can be worn in many ways, from short blunt sides or wispy layers. Cho is a fan of pairing it with loose waves and recommends using something like the FEKKAI Clean Stylers Glossing Cream+ to give your waves some definition and shine.

Bobs transcend any season thanks to their versatility and will continue to be huge once the weather cools. âItâs a great opportunity to cut off summer dead ends and have a fresh, chic style for scare and turtleneck weather,â says Mara Roszak, celebrity hairstylist and founder of RĆZ. âBobs are versatile and there is truly a style for all hair textures.â
Roszak says to opt for a bob with lots of swinging movement. To get that cool girl vibe, she emphasizes a good hair care regimen to make sure hair is strong and healthy. Something like the new RĆZ Foundation Mask will keep hair hydrated and treat damage. You can also add a side-swept deep side part, like here on Zendaya, to give your short hair some body.
