fake fringe via ebay (£4.59)
Ok, Ok, I'm sorry for my little porky pie over the past few days! I obviously didn't get my fringe cut! I was going to come clean on the day but I thought it would be fun to post it on my blog and see what people said about it! I've had full fringes in the past, its taken about two-three years to grow my last one out! I used to always say I looked like Caleb Followill circa Youth and Young Manhood with a full fringe! Victorias Boyfriend says I look like Claudia Winkleman, hahaha!
I've always been curious, ever since my emo days about fake fringes, and exactly how fake they may look in real life. This one was a fiver, so I thought why not! Its not really a serious thing, I doubt I'd wear mine out of my house as the top bit is very noticeably faux. Its taken me forever to get my center parting right so I dont think I can bring myself to change quite yet! I was surprised that I had a many positive comments about getting a fringe, and I do actually quite like the rockier full fringes a la Daisy Lowe and ma homegurl Rumi Neely! Maybe one day I'll take the plunge! Baby steps!
ETA: The fringe is fun, but I don't know if I'd recommend it if you want to wear it seriously. The top seam is quite noticeable when you wear it, If your tall and no one could see the top of your head it would be fine!
I had a sneaking suspicion you wouldn't do something so drastic without blogging about it first! Looks great though x
ReplyDeleteOmg you totally rock the fringe! Can see the claudia winkleman reference lol I used to have a full fringe and they are such hard work, when it was windy I used to walk around with my hand stuck to my head trying to stop it from going all crazy lol x
ReplyDeletelove the fringe, really suits you :)
ReplyDeleteLove Tels

Haha had me fooled!

I have to get one of these.
ReplyDeleteI got a fringe put in about 5 months ago and im still growing mine out. But sometimes I want a full fringe again. This is amazing.
And a full fringe really does suite you

You look sooo good with a fringe (actually you look good without it too!) but I can see the Claudia Winkleman comparison! xx
ReplyDeleteHahah that's awesome!
ReplyDeleteHaha I definitely thought it was real! It does look good though! I spent the whole summer growing my fringe out then got bored one Sunday night and cut it back in!
ReplyDeleteDid not see that coming! It looks so real hahaha! xx
ReplyDeleteI thought it was real, inspired me to try and find one of my own. I just thought I'd let you know two of your links are linking to Daisy Lowe; the 'ebay' link; the 'this one was a fiver'. Cheeky little lie though ;)

ReplyDeleteThat is amazing for a fiver! I want to try one as I've been wondering about getting a fringe, will give this one a go :) thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletehaha brilliant idea, a fringe really does suit you thought! this is seriously realistic!

Ah, you had me fooled! It really suits you though :) A really good price as well considering how realistic it looks! I used to have a full fringe and it was so annoying to keep looking decent :|
ReplyDeletei genuinely thought your fringe was real so i can't believe it's not! very funny joke though ;) if you were ever to get a proper one put in, it would look lovely! X
ReplyDeleteHa ha this is too great! You had me fooled! :)

Oh you sneak Lily! It looks fab on you though, you really suit a full fringe! x
ReplyDelete:D haha great!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so real, amazing :D
:O you had me so fooled! it does really suit you though xxx
ReplyDeleteLove this! So funny! Really thought it was real! x
ReplyDeleteOmg, haha, i was totally fooled, thought it was real. Can imagine that it might be noticable irl though.

Fake or not, fringe looks amazing on you!

I like the fringe! It makes you look more high fashion, somehow I think of a Barbie when I see the fringe. Take the plunge and get the real fringe! I love it on you. On me it would look bad because my hair is so thin.
ReplyDeleteM.
haha i love that, i was fooled !
ReplyDeleteYou're cute with a fringe :)
THIS IS GENIUS.
ReplyDeleteYou actually had me fooled!
Looks good though :)

I saw this and I thought you actually cut your hair and was like OMG so amazing!
ReplyDeleteI was known through school with a full fringe and I suit it so I want to cut it back but I know how long it takes to grow out and looks awkward.
But you REALLY DO suit it! It's really wow. But I can see what you mean about it being fake. Maybe investing in a human hair one would be really cool if you're serious about having it! You can't tell on the photos though :) xx
hahaha damn, i legit thought it was real. it matches your hair colour freakishly well. i kind of like the idea of a faux fringe. ive had a few fringes over the past few years and i always like them at first, but then i ALWAYS get sick of them, and the growing out part sucks! to be able to just clip one in would be amazing.
ReplyDeletesucks about the seam part!
It looks really realistic and it's so cheap. I had a look at the ebay link and they don't have my colour :(
ReplyDeletetotally had me fooled aha! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYou remind me of Sophie Habibis when she had her fringe put in! Having a fringe really suits you! :) x

WAIT IT LOOKED SO REAL. Had me fooled girl ! Now I'm gonna be a little skeptical if you actually do go all blonde...
ReplyDeleteI'm down with the fake fringe. I've had the real deal and remember wishing it would just go away. It's also annoying to grow out so your alternative is very cute.

Haha Love the fringe!! :)xx
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good :) x
ReplyDeletelove it!! such a great idea..

Hahahaha oh Lily! It looks really good though! I actually think it suits you better?? Shame it's really obvious on the top though. You also got a really good colour match! xxx
ReplyDeleteI really like you with a fringe!
ReplyDeletehttp://kindoflovely.com
I actually think you look so much better with the fringe! It really suits you! :)
ReplyDeleteI actually like it on you!
ReplyDeletethis is genius, looks so real and cute too! you really suit it :) totally wish i'd done that now instead of being stuck in this annoying growing out phase with my own fringe. x
ReplyDeleteDon't recommend getting a new fringe lol !
ReplyDeleteI'm in the process of growing my current one out !
I've had a full side fringe for 4 and half years, and this full fringe one foorrrrrrrr ... a year ?
Just sick of fringes atm !
Lily, Im so gonna get one your looks amazing- doesnt look faux at alll.
ReplyDeleteWhat colour did you get?
xxxx
as much as the fringe suits you, i love love love your hair at the moment and think you should definetly keep it the way it is, its beautiful:)xx
ReplyDeletewow it looks so real! Really suits you and it's good to have the option of wearing your hair with or without the fringe xx
ReplyDeletekathykinsxo.blogspot.com
you are sooo gorgeous! I have clippie bangs also ;) makes for a good option since I know I won't ever cut them. xoxo
ReplyDeletewow, I'm actually shocked it was fake, it look so real! It really suits you aswell,
ReplyDeletexx
I'm trying to let my friendge grow aswell, I came to the conclusion that I can't handle hair on my forhead, it tickles XD
ReplyDeleteyou TOTALLY had me convinced! haa, i would have never known it was a clip in! you really should take the plunge though, it really suits you :) xo
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that is fake!! Amazing.
ReplyDeleteBoth hair styles suit you really well x

Did think it was weird you could see it in another post but you didn't mention it!! In photos it actually looks very realistic - but don't think I'd have the guts to wear it out either x
ReplyDeleteI love that last flick it's like a magic trick, fringe be gone !
ReplyDeleteNaa you actual look fab with and without it Lily (you cow), so glad you shared this as I always cut mine than regret it, but this is such a great way to mix up your look ....Without having to do the whole ' I'm growing it out' convo with peeps, as everyone looks a tad mad when it's midway and you have to do the pin back which half falls out increasing the mad look. Love it and that's far better than paying £30 !! I was going to get one a while back and was like for £30 I'll hack my hair. Love it xx
Wow love the fringe! I so have to look into getting my own falsie!
ReplyDeletei actually think you really suit a fringe :D

Too bad we can't wear it for everyday life, when i saw it, so pretty on you, i really wanted to have one too ! :)
ReplyDeletehahah looks so real in the photo, you definitely suit it! I always recommend fringed to people, I love having them, currently growing my hair long again and then definitely going for the fringe again
ReplyDeleteWhat Colour did you get?!?! I love this and your hair is so amazing...! Tad in love! x
ReplyDeleteyou look hot with the fringe! the colour matches your hair so perfectly!
