The salon brief

Choose the opening and landing point

Compare where the fringe separates, where the shortest pieces sit, and how the edges blend into the sides. These details define the front more than the photographed color.

Account for texture and shrinkage

Straight, wavy, and curly hair can make the same fringe appear shorter or fuller. Ask how the front will sit without being freshly styled.

Use photos precisely

Save a clear front view and describe the width, part, and side connection you prefer. A second angle can clarify how the fringe blends into the overall cut.
