There’s a common misconception that short hair doesn’t boast the same versatility as long hair—especially a cut that’s paired with an even shorter front. But the truth is, a short haircut with a fringe is not only a transition style (like after winter and before summer), but it can also be switched up at a moment’s notice. (Think front to side bangs, slicked back, or parted in the middle.) Don’t believe us? We’ve rounded up 25 short hairstyles with bangs that prove this is the perfect cut for spring.
Gone are the days of straightening your fringe within an inch of their lives only to have them contradict the rest of your hair. Let your shag boast the same natural texture for a seriously showstopping look.
