Anne Hathaway sure gives good foreheads, doesn’t she? Whether it’s full, to the side, swept or curtained, the girl has bangs down to a t-shirt. After showing off a ’60s bouffant that paid homage to Jean Shrimpton last week, Hathaway made her full fringe a focal point at an event in Los Angeles earlier this week.

Anne Hathaway’s full fringe
As chic as they come, Hathaway’s bangs expertly straddle the line between a tousled and full style and curtain bangs. The cut effortlessly frames her face and was styled with a gentle tousled wave through the ends, along with just the right amount of built-in texture. Along with some of her other pitch-perfect fringes in Hathaway’s hair gallery of fame—from a recent Andie-inspired (The Devil Wears Prada) choppy look to her side-swept French girl bangs from last year—the new look provides excellent inspiration for the season ahead.

“Anne Hathaway is never afraid to go there with a look,” says Luke Hersheson, “she’s the reason I don’t subscribe to the idea that your face shape should dictate your haircut—she’s able to pull off a graphic bangs..” Despite being graphic and quite a strong cut, Hersheson says the reason it works so well is that it’s turned into a “slanted curtain bang” at the sides, giving it a certain sense of softness.
Are you considering getting bangs chopped in? If you decide yes, work with your stylist to find the right shape for you and your face shape – there’s a style and shape for everyone. Meanwhile, it also pays to understand how to style it properly – a fringe is arguably more high-maintenance than layers. Look for a round brush and lift the hair up and around while drying it from the top, you should avoid any flatness and achieve optimal volume.
