Beware of Bangs
Fringe, while cute, can be a pain in the neck to maintain. So if you're trying to tighten your beauty belt, now may not be the time to experiment with the Katy Perry look. Still dying for some face-framing pieces? Have your stylist cut long bangs that hit at the bridge or the top of your nose or side-slashed bangs, which start at your brow and get a little longer as they go across your forehead. They'll blend in with your hair as they grow, requiring less upkeep. If you've already got full-on fringe, take advantage of free trims. "Never be afraid to ask your stylist if you can pop in for a bang trim every few weeks. I never charge for that," says Mark Townsend, celebrity hairstylist for Matrix.
