In a recent Instagram video, hairstylist Tom Smith compares Sabrina's Carpenter's haircut to Bridgitte Bardot's, which the iconic French singer, actress and model was so well-know for wearing in the '50s and 60s. "The reason it's so popular is that it combines the softness and sweetness of that bouncy blonde style with the sexy, sultry, slightly mysterious vibes of a long heavy fringe or bangs, and Sabrina's bringing it back to the mainstream," says Smith in the video.

Sabrina Carpenter's fringe is a versatile curtain fringe, which she often wears framing her face on either side, or brushed forward as a more wispy eyebrow-skimming full fringe. "‘Curtain bangs are a great starter option, [as] they can be cut and land to a part of the face you want to accentuate," says Fudge Professional global ambassador, Jonathan Andrew. "Curtain bangs are usually thicker and can skim the eyes or fall lower with the eyes peeking through (think actual sweeping curtains). If you change your mind, they can muddle in with layers and can grow out quickly," he says.

The beauty of a curtain fringe is that they look great with your hair worn down to shape and accentuate your cheekbones, but they look just a chic with hair worn up to frame your face, too. We told you it was versatile!
