We're well-versed when it comes to fringes, whether it's a blunt fringe, side-swept fringe, baby bangs, curtain bangs or a curly fringe. But Bella Hadid just stumped us with her new fringe.
Bella posted a photo to Instagram in which she appears to be on set for a Marc Jacobs shoot, wearing an absolutely epic pair of white Mary Jane platforms, black glasses, and a gray cut-out turtleneck. However, despite this delightful fashion moment, our eyes immediately leapt to Bella's forehead and our index finger leapt to our own heads for a good scratching. What exactly are these bangs we're looking at?
Most of Hadid's hair appears to be slicked down in a straight, shiny style, but the fringe up front is a bold choice: short, piece-y, possibly gelled, and showing more forehead than hair.

"Itsy-bitsy spider bangs."
"Spider micro bangs."
"It's giving wide-tooth comb."
"Bushwick."
"Divorced."
OK, so, we can thank Bella Hadid for starting 2023's biggest hair trend: divorced Bushwick wide-tooth comb spider micro bangs. Don't forget to use the hashtag #divorcedbushwickwidetoothcombspidermicrobangs if you get the cut!
