French women have always operated on their own beauty standards, and slowly but surely, we’re catching up. In makeup, they don’t shy from wearing a red lip.

They exist in various lengths and densities, making them friendly to any hair type or face shape. Below, we’ve rounded up 30 celebs wearing French bangs to inspire your next hair look.
