Whether it’s clothes, hair or make-up – when it comes to style, the French still set the tone. The latest proof: the so-called French Girl Hair aka the coolest hairstyle for 2023.
It’s an open secret – we love the French and their unique sense of fashion and trends. But it’s not just when it comes to fashion that our neighbors have the powdered nose in front, we’re also only too happy to be inspired when it comes to hair. With that in mind: Say Bonjour to the French answer to bangs: French Girl Hair.
Super stylish and casual at the same time – that probably best describes the French hairstyle trend 2023. Soft edges form the basis for the favorite hairstyle of it girls like Jeanne Damas or Sabina Socol. Whether it’s a frayed, soft bob, medium-length hair or a wavy mane: what’s important is a dreamy, flowing haircut that looks anything but geometric. A fringed fringe that falls loosely over the forehead provides the girlish twist. We only have one thing to say about this: Oui, oui, oui!
We leave French Girl Hair to a professional
Sound easy? Unfortunately it isn’t! French Girl Hair is definitely not suitable for grabbing scissors yourself at home. Because no matter how imperfect the cut looks, it has to be cut just as perfectly. Instead of a sharp edge, the tips are shaped with a knife in such a way that a slightly fringed look is created. This makes the hair look lighter and gives it the typical French nonchalance.
But the real supreme discipline is the pony. The special thing about it is that it virtually merges with the rest of the hair. Craftsmanship is required for this effect. The sides of the fringe are longer than the front and rest gently on the cheekbones. This creates a smooth transition that looks super casual. In addition, the longer the hair is in general, the longer the side part of the fringe can be.
This is how you style French Girl Hair
We leave the cut to the professionals, for styling we don’t need a master’s degree in hairdressing. French women refrain from working on their hairstyle for hours and prefer to let their mane air dry. If you don’t want to do without the extra portion of volume, you can also blow-dry your hair loosely in all directions. However, care should be taken that the hair does not lose its out-of-bed character. An accurate hairstyle is not part of the styling repertoire of French girls! Now something else texture spray into your hair, knead everything briefly with your fingers – et volià!
