Lily Collins is getting bold when it comes to changing her haircuts. The actress has traditionally favoured long waves but most recently, in keeping with her role in Emily in Paris, she debuted a French fringe cut and started an instant trend.
Not one to rest on her laurels, Lily has taken even more inspo from the French girlies with a new haircut we're dubbing the "French Step Cut".
Lily Collins' hairstylist, Gregory Russel, shared the actresses' new cut on his Instagram page and it's chic, edgy and playful all at the same time. In snaps on social media, the star can be seen rocking a long fringe and extra-strong, blunt-cut layered trim that falls at cheek level. This look is certainly an edgy transition for the star, with hairstylists hailing it a characteristic French style.

The best part of this cut is that it can be styled however you want - and hairstylists say it looks great when worn in ponytail and chignon hairstyles.
Due to its multitude of possibilities, the "French Step Cut" will look great on everyone who likes to alternate their hairstyles (so pretty much everyone then). The blunt-cut layers in the style serve to flatter all face shapes, as the strands can be adjusted in height to the shape of the face. Oooh la la!
We've been keeping up with Lily's style in Emily in Paris season three, and we're already looking forward to the fourth season of Netflix's hit fantasy series. (One can never have too many episodes in the queue.)
While we still have several questions lingering following the finale of season two, and will have even more, I'm sure, with the conclusion of season three, there is one guarantee for season four: Whatever Emily Cooper is doing, she will be doing it in style.
Back in January of 2022, following the premiere of the show's second season, Emily in Paris was renewed for season three and four at the same time.
Though Netflix shows — even those that have been relatively well-received — are known for getting abruptly cancelled after just one or two seasons, you can rest easy in knowing that a fourth season is guaranteed to be forthcoming. Bring it on.
