Fringe and glasses. Do they mix?

[Leicesterpiggott]

I've got brown shoulder length hair, all one length. I wear glasses. Really heavy square hipstery style Ines. I'm 53, chubby and short. Not stylish. Quite frumpy really. I'm thinking about a heavy fringe. But can you have a fringe with glasses? Is it weird? Are fringes very high maintenance? I haven't had one since I was 10!

I have have a fringe and glasses. I've had a straight one now I'm growing it into a side fringe.
Pull some hair over your head to make a fringe and see?

My hair grows quickly so I was having it trimmed every 4 weeks btw

I wear glasses, and had a fringe up until about a year ago when I started to grow it out. Always had compliments so assume the glasses and the fringe combo worked fine although my hair grows fast and having to get it trimmed every 2-3 weeks put me off keeping it!

I'm growing out a long heavy fringe, but had one until recently. I too wear big heavy-framed glasses, and have a round, podgy face. Like this. So it might help you judge.

I have a fringe and often wear glasses, I think it's nice! As others have said though, you do have to get a fringe trimmed every couple of weeks if it's a full fringe.

I think fringe plus glasses can look good. My problem is that if I have my hair anywhere near my glasses they get greasy and smudged very quickly - and I don't even have greasy hair!

I have recently (last 3 months) had a think fringe cut in, and wear glasses similar to the pp. Actually I think it looks really good, always getting compliments and am so much more pleased than when I didn't have one.
However, yes, it does need maintenance. I generally have to wash the fringe in the sink every morning (I think the hair gets the grease off my forehead throughout the day, hence I have to wash it) and blowdry to the right place. (as it ends up in some very funny angles otherwise). But It is well worth it as I am so pleased with the look.
My hairdresser will trim fringe (free) as much as i need in between haircuts, so i just tend to pop in every 2-3 weeks on way somewhere to get it done.

I think it depends. I can't do fringe and glasses as It accentuates my square face.

Try it. You can always grow it out.
