Fringe Trim

What Happens During Your Fringe Trim

Your stylist will start with a quick chat about your fringe — how you like to wear it, where you part it, and what length works best for you. We'll usually trim on dry hair so we can see exactly how your fringe sits naturally, especially important if you have any wave or curl that might spring up after cutting.

The trim itself is precise and careful:

• We section off just the fringe area, leaving the rest of your hair untouched
• Cutting is done with point-cutting technique rather than a blunt line, creating softer, more natural-looking ends
• The centre is usually kept slightly shorter than the edges to follow the natural curve of your forehead
• For curly or wavy fringes, we're especially conservative — curls bounce up, so less is definitely more

The whole appointment takes around 15 minutes, and you'll leave with a tidy, well-shaped fringe that looks intentional rather than overgrown.

How Often Should You Book?

Fringes grow fast — faster than you'd think. Most clients find their bangs start falling into their eyes after about 3 to 5 weeks, which is the sweet spot for booking your next trim.

Regular maintenance makes a real difference. A fringe that's trimmed consistently keeps its shape and movement, whereas one that's left too long can become heavy, lose definition, or just feel like a nuisance. If you wear your fringe styled a certain way — swept to the side, curtain-parted, or blunt across — staying on top of trims means it always sits the way you want it to.

At £5, it's an easy way to keep your whole haircut looking sharp without the commitment of a full restyle.

Styling Your Fringe at Home

A good fringe trim sets you up for success, but a little daily styling keeps it looking its best. Most fringes benefit from a quick blow-dry with a round brush to encourage the right direction and add a bit of volume at the roots.

A few home-styling tips:

• Use a heat protectant before blow-drying to prevent damage from daily heat
• Keep the dryer on a low-to-medium setting and direct the airflow downward for smoothness
• If your fringe gets oily quickly, a spritz of dry shampoo at the roots between washes works wonders — just rough it in and re-blow-dry for freshness
• A tiny amount of serum or light oil can tame any frizz or flyaways without weighing the hair down
• A light-hold hairspray (if you use one) keeps things in place without stiffness

And whatever you do, resist the urge to trim it yourself at home with kitchen scissors. We've seen too many DIY disasters that take far longer to fix than the original trim would have taken — trust us on this one!
