For the perfect fringe 'use a round hair brush' One of the hottest hair styles for the season is a fringe, it has emerged.

Top London hair stylist Karine Jackson told Easier how to achieve the perfect fringe, using such tools and a round hair brush and a hairdryer.

The most important aspect to look at when choosing your fringe style is face shape, Ms Jackson said.

A small face benefits from a short and choppy fringe, a round face can be lengthened by a long and textured fringe, while a more severe face shape should opt for a sweeping style, she explained.

Those seeking a straight fringe should "always aim the hairdryer down the hair shaft but don't move the hair too much, as this will create body," she remarked.

She added that a round hair brush is ideal for creating "a flick" by putting the heat of the dryer on hair rolled around a brush, then removing the dryer while the hair cools.

A person should never "use a fringe to hide behind", according to Ms Jackson, but should instead "use it to bring out your best features".
