Ahh 2020. It's been a shit one. And like everything else right now, you're probably bored as heck with how your hair looks (never not in a bun) and itching for something fresh and stylish for when you finally get back to a salon.
And friends, do we have a goodie for you! (We do).
It's called the 'French cut' and we reckon it would look hella cute on you. It's aggressively sexy and chic (because, French) and it's everything your poor little pandemic head needs. Victorian gals, you may have to wait a little longer to book in a chop - but that just means more time to gather inspo and pluck up the courage, no?
Now - for those who aren't familiar with the style (all of us), the 'French cut' is basically a super-short, choppy bob (shorter than your usual bob) that looks great paired with cool-girl bangs. And a beret. And maybe a baguette.
