As women, it’s pretty much our prerogative to want to shake up our look every few months. And if you’ve reached that ‘I’m-soooooooo-bored-with-my-hair-but-I-don’t-know-what-to-do-with-it’ phase, we’ve got the simple solution to your woes: a side-swept fringe.
Why a side-swept fringe, you ask? A side-swept fringe will help frame your face and give your hairstyle that extra oomph you need. Also, it’s an easy change you can make without going too over the top. Side note: if you got a full, thick fringe in winter (a la Zooey Deschanel and Jessica Biel), and don’t know what to do with it now that it’s getting longer, a side-fringe has your name written all over it.
So if you think this solution is just what the doctor ordered for your hair blues, take a look at the celebrity gallery below for some inspiration. And if you’re not entirely convinced, have a look anyway. You may just be inspired. Either way, check out the pics: there are some pretty cool styles to choose from…

Charlize Theron
Charlize proves that a side-swept fringe doesn’t have to be short, but can be blended into the length of your hair.
Kerry Washngton
Kerry’s make-up looks gorgeous and radiant, but is still definitely on the softer side of the spectrum. Thoughts?
Taylor Swift
Okay, we know this subtle smoky eye isn’t exactly simple, but it’s pretty same-ol’ same-ol’ for Taylor. We think she could have done something a bit more exciting.
Olivia Wilde
Olivia shows just how good a full fringe looks when swept to the side.
Frieda Pinto
Alexa Chung
We love how Alexa’s fringe blends into her shaggy lob. She really can do no wrong with her hair.
Michelle Williams
Those with short hairstyles can pull off a side-swept fringe, too – just make sure it’s a little bit wispy and not too full.
Rose Byrne
Don’t be put off if your side-fringe separates a bit. Just look at Rose’s ‘do. Perfection, right?
Carrie Underwood
Emma Stone
On a good skin day, stick to just a hint of colour on the cheeks and lip.
