Bella Hadid has the kind of face that looks just as beautiful under crazy runway makeup or interesting wigs—she could probably even wear a paper bag over her head and somehow remain recognizably stunning. But her latest hair update (thick-yet-wispy bangs with longer face-framing sides) just changed her entire look in the most unexpected way. Is it just us or does she look like she just stepped out of a black-and-white film? With her bone structure, winged cat eye and short fringe, Bella is channeling a vintage version of her modern self. For the girl who always stays consistent, who would’ve thought bangs were the secret to switching things up? Our verdict: love.
With an entire glam team behind her, there’s always a chance the look is just a good hairpiece. We’ll keep an eye out to see if this is a temporary change-up, but in case you’re inspired to take on the style for yourself, here are a few tips for picking the right fringe for your face shape.
Update: As it turns out, they’re faux. We had a feeling.
