    Growing out your fringe doesn't need to be scary...

    So you've decided to grow out your fringe. Nice. It's good to change up your look every now and then! The only downside? That awkward length about half-way through when it's too short to incorporate into your look, and too long to keep wearing it as a fringe. Bummer, right?

    Most people pin their fringe back with bobby pins, but that can look a little 'schoolgirl-esque' and isn't really appropriate for a formal occasion. Why not try a style a la Vanessa Hudgens and find a fun and flirty way to incorporate these pieces into your look?

    Soft curls around your face are super-foxy, and can be worn on a casual day out or a dressy evening out. Talk about versatile.

    Want to know how to make it work? Here are a few simple steps...

    - Start by parting your hair in the middle, and brushing out your strands.
    - Use a straightening iron to make sure the fringe pieces are sleek and smooth from root to end.
    - Wait around 20 minutes for your hair to cool down before styling again.
    - Grab a curling tong and begin wrapping the fringe pieces around the tong away from your face. Repeat this step until each fringe piece has been curled.
    - If your curls seem too ringlet-like, spritz them with a light hairspray like Aveda Witch Hazel Light Hold Hairspray, and then gently comb them out so they create a softer silhouette around your face.

    curling them sounds like a good idea.

    What a good tip! I didn't even think of doing the curls with it!

    Use clips and hair pieces when growing out a fringe. Enjoy the short bits while you can!

    I like growing out a fringe because it's always changing.

    I think the half grown out fringe 'look' looks great! So my best tip is to enjoy it while it lasts!

    Gilliey 2 Oct 2012 4:33 AM

    What a marvellous tip, why have I never thought of that!

    Belle88 2 Oct 2012 2:52 AM

    Great article! I always pin fringe back when I'm at work/uni/shopping but I don't like the look when I'm out partying! I'll have to try curling my fringe.

    I remember growing out my fringe.....nearly gave up but persisted - just wished I had a straightening iron back then though. Great article and tips.

    I've never grown out my fringe, but this sounds like the perfect in-between style.

    IndieAna 1 Oct 2012 9:18 AM

    I will certainly be following this advice, as I'm currently growing out my fringe :)
