Her fringe is right in her eyes! It makes me so uncomfortable. I keep blinking and trying to sweep my own hair out of my eyes. I don’t even have a fringe.

Same here, OP. I find her fringe so irritating

CaveMum · 17/10/2020 22:08

It’s a truth universally acknowledged that the Strictly wardrobe department hate Tess 😜😂

Cantdoitallperfectly · 17/10/2020 22:10

I love Claudia and I love her hair! I also had heard she keeps her fringe long to conceal an eye issue..

Why?

I’ve always had that thought. I love her but it makes my eyelashes itch. I want to get at that fringe with a pair of nail scissors...

Bloody love her. Looks fab and seems so genuine.

100% this. She’s kooky and natural, love her.
Magicbabywaves · 17/10/2020 22:17

It makes me blinky looking at her.

Audreyseyebrows · 17/10/2020 22:19

I love her. She’s an icon.

AmyandPhilipfan · 17/10/2020 22:21

She has some kind of issue with one of her eyes so keeps her hair that way so it’s less noticeable.

Also, it’s her hair so she can do what she likes with it.

ShirleyPhallus · 17/10/2020 22:24

She’s said before she’s almost blind so yes, her squinting makes sense and she clearly doesn’t mind the fringe going in her eyes!

katy1213 · 17/10/2020 22:28

I'd love to take a pair of scissors to her - and I'd love to scrub her face!

riceuten · 17/10/2020 22:28

The fringe I can cope with. The eyeshadow shovelled on I cannot

CaveMum · 17/10/2020 22:29

Anordinarymum, it’s a running joke on the Strictly threads as she has had so many shocking outfits.

WoobyWoo · 17/10/2020 22:30

I really like her fringe but am obviously in the minority! Grin

Suzi888 · 17/10/2020 22:31

Bit of a nest of vipers! she does take the piss out of herself though.... just as well lol I think she’s gorgeous and I would kick her hubby out of bedGrin

CandyLeBonBon · 17/10/2020 22:35

Bloody hell. So many nasty comments about a woman's appearance!

@CoronaIsWatching are you for real? Strong women lift each other up.

Runforyourlifeitsagherkin · 17/10/2020 22:43

Bunch of bitches. She has a condition that obviously she is self conscious of, and her fringe makes her more comfortable with her appearance. Leave her alone

Horehound · 17/10/2020 22:45

If you Google her face she doesn't have any eye issue?? Maybe she has that body dismorphia thing. Anyhoo I don't mind her hair but I think the fringe would annoy me if I had it.

Horehound · 17/10/2020 22:49

Like...doesn't look like there's anything wrong...I think she just likes the look. Which is fair enough

She doesn’t have anything wrong with her eyes apart from short sightedness. Can’t see how half covering your eyes helps that. I do think she’s the one of the sharpest, funniest women on TV and love her!

LivingDeadGirlUK · 17/10/2020 23:00

I guess none of you fringe haters had an emo phase then :p

EmmaWithTheGreatHair · 17/10/2020 23:04

I feel the same about CW and Janet Street Porter’s fringes! Makes me feel uncomfortable and I too don’t have a fringe!
