Celebrity Hairstylist Chris Appleton Promotes U-Shaped Bangs as Universally Flattering

Celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton has highlighted the 'U bangs' hairstyle as a universally flattering fringe. The cut features a softly curved shape with shorter sections in the middle of the forehead that gradually lengthen toward the temples, creating an inverted U shape. Appleton explains that this design helps lift facial features, particularly cheekbones, by avoiding coverage of the cheek area. The style has been worn by celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence, Mia Goth, and Jenna Ortega. Appleton's insights were shared in an interview with Vogue's beauty section.
