Trendy Pony (Bangs): 70S Fringe Is Back In 2021!

Those who opt for a pony at the hairdresser's often regret it later. Despite all efforts, the new forehead fringes just don't want to look as chic as after hairstyling by a professional or on the template from the runway. And anyway, the hairstyle quickly becomes a nuisance in everyday life - at the latest when the contour of the pony has to be continually trimmed again. These disadvantages do not apply to a 70s fringe, because it is thankfully casual and easy to care for, making it the most suitable trend hairstyle for our times and for 2021.

70s fringe is now the best trending hairstyle for the pony (bangs)

At Victoria Beckham Fall/Winter 2020/21, the 70s fringe comes as a pony trend hairstyle paired with soft waves.

Trendy pony hairstyle: Why a 70s fringe hits the zeitgeist in 2021 like no other hairstyling?

It will soon be a year since the coronavirus reached us after the outbreak in China and turned our world as we knew it completely upside down. With this unexpected turn, the past year 2020 also developed in a different direction than expected in terms of trends in fashion and beauty. Loungewear has replaced maximally elegant outfits, instead of accurately trimmed hairstyles, many current ones wear the involuntary corona cut - because a visit to the hairdresser is simply not possible. A grateful trend in this location is the 70s fringe, also known as curtain bangs. Because - as the last name suggests, the hair on the forehead can fall over the face like a soft curtain. And so do not have to be trimmed as often.

Trend hairstyle: Who does the 70s pony suit?

In contrast to other pony hairstyles - just think of the extravagant micro bangs - the 70ies fringe can be implemented for many face shapes and haircuts. This was shown for autumn/winter 2020/21 by labels such as Christian Dior, Victoria Beckham, or Celine, where the trend hairstyle was used in combination with all conceivable styles, from bob in one length to rocky shag to long hair. While straight hair with a pony in the style of the 70s looks a little less accurate and conservative, the pony hairstyle unfolds its full effect especially with gentle waves or curls, and is reminiscent of the heyday of rock'n'roll, even without a matching outfit.

How To Style The 70s Fringe?

The most popular styling for the '70s bangs is slightly wavy and deliberately disheveled. To do this, blow-dry the pony's hair using a round brush after washing it and then fix it with a little hairspray. Optionally, individual strands can be plucked out with a little hair cream or wax or the bangs can be divided in the middle. But the trend hairstyle is also suitable as a super sleek hairstyle. Then you straighten the hair in advance and fix it with a spray for more hold. In the case of curls or natural waves, the pony styling often takes care of itself: Here the individual strands can jump naturally or only be tamed slightly with a hair styling product.

The decision for the nonchalant trend hairstyle with bangs can now also be worthwhile in the long term. Because in the coming spring/summer 2021 season, hair styling with strand fringes will remain popular, as the beauty looks from labels such as Hermès, Valentino, and Louis Vuitton prove.
