It's January. We can't go down the pub and we can't book ourselves a holiday, but what we can do, is trawl the 'gram for dream hair inspo so that our grand debut back into the world (when that eventually comes) is nothing short of fabulous.
The top trend to have on your radar? The French Girl fringe. It's a smash hit amongst the chic Instagram set, and also amongst hair stylists. Hannah Munford, Advanced Stylist and Colourist at MAYFIVE Hair, has flagged it as the style to look out for in 2021.

What is the French-girl fringe?
Hannah maintains that this fringe should be shorter than the more traditional style. It's slightly cropped, with the point cut in just above or sitting on the eyebrow, rather than skimming lashes. The trick is to ensure it doesn't look too neat. Insouciance suits this style.
"This look is so chic it transports you straight onto the streets of Paris," she told GLAMOUR. Exactly the sort of beauty escapism we need.
Who suits a French-girl fringe?
"It's best suited to those with short hair that is above the shoulder," says Hannah. "Anyone who has ever looked for bob inspiration on Pinterest will have more than likely come across Taylor LaShae, who wears this fringe fabulously."
"The shape of this fringe, with a bob to match, will flatter small faces with pixie-like features," says Hannah. "If you have a natural wave to your hair, this look will sit soft and pretty but can also be straightened for a smoother finish."
