Fringe Hair
Long or short, blunt or feathered — a fringe is a great way to frame your face and accentuate the rest of your hairstyle. Whether fringe hair is new to you or you’ve always worn a textured fringe, we’re detailing the best hair products for fringe to ensure a flattering finish.
For some, adding a fringe can also add a bit of upkeep to your usual hair care routine. The amount of maintenance will be determined by the fringe you choose, your natural hair type and how you choose to style your hair.
The Best Hair Products for Fringe Hair
When choosing hair products for fringe, start by determining your finished style. Will you let your fringe air dry? Or are you going to be diffuse-drying or blow-drying it?
To Enhance Textured Fringe
While air-drying or diffuse-drying for fringe hair can be similar to your normal styling routine, sometimes the fringe area requires more control. But, be mindful because fringe hair is generally more sparse and can be weighed down easily. For this reason, if you’re working with your natural texture or looking to add texture to your fringe there are some great hair products for fringe to choose from that will define your textured fringe.
HAIR.RESORT is a beach texturizer that can be used on damp or dry hair to enhance movement and curl. If you’re looking to add thickness and separation in wavy hair, KILLER.WAVES can do just that. Or reach for KILLER.TWIRLS air-dry crème to give curls and coils a lived-in finish and refined feel.
When looking to create definition and detail a textured fringe, EASY.RIDER, SUPER.GOO and FREE.HOLD are ideal.
Once hair is dry, DOO.OVER and BEDROOM.HAIR are must-haves for an airy, texturised finish, or add SHIMMER.SHINE, SHIMMER.ME BLONDE or another layer of HAIR.RESORT for a glowy, shimmering feel.
For Smooth Fringe Styles
Whether your hair is naturally straight or you choose to smooth your fringe, hair should always be prepped with HEATED.DEFENSE before applying heat. This weightless leave-in treatment will guard against heat damage up to 232˚C / 450˚F.
- After prepping with HEATED.DEFENSE, follow with EVER.SMOOTH for a smooth finish with increased style memory, ANTI.GRAVITY for an added boost of volume, YOUNG.AGAIN to add rejuvenation and strength, or SHIMMER.SHINE or SHIMMER.ME BLONDE for brilliant shine and repair.
- Then to finish, DOO.OVER is ideal to add soft texture and remove excess oil while BEDROOM.HAIR creates that airy and effortless “just napped on” look. Or to keep your fringe hair in place while guarding against humidity choose between SESSION.SPRAY for a flake-free strong hold of SESSION.SPRAY FLEX for even more flexibility and a lived-in look.
