Britney Spears Just Got Bangs and We're Loving It

From Harper's BAZAAR

Britney Spears just settled the age-old question of whether or not to get bangs (the answer is yes). Last month, Spears took to Instagram to tell the story of her relationship with fringe as a child–and how she missed the hairstyle dearly. The singer delivered on her promise and just debuted the perfect set of wispy curtain bangs.

“I did it I finally cut bangs 🌹💋💋💋🌸🌸🌸🙊 !!!!!!" Spears captioned the selfie. Fans flooded her comments with love for her new look. She styled her new haircut with a pink bikini and a black choker necklace. Spears then posted a second selfie showing off her new hairstyle, this time with the same necklace and a white polka dot crop top.

Back in May, the singer noted that bangs are her best anti-aging hair hack. "Who would have thought bangs could make you look waaaaay younger ?!?!" she wrote. "I stopped having bangs in the 3rd grade and I remember like it was yesterday .... it was such a big deal to expose my forehead …. only pretty people in the south could do that and I never felt pretty enough to pull it off."

Wearing bangs, Spears says, makes her feel confident. "People choose different ways to protect themselves …. when I pull my bangs in front of my head I feel like I’m protected ... almost like I’m in 3rd grade again ⭐️💖🌸 !!!" Even the biggest pop star in the world can't deny the self-love powers of a fresh hairstyle.

Spears isn't the only celebrity to debut a new hairstyle during quarantine. Supermodel Bella Hadid recently cut her own wispy bangs, and singer Miley Cyrus let her mom snip her hair into a retro-chic shag. Celebrities like Khloe Kardashian, Dua Lipa, and Megan Thee Stallion have also showed off her hair colors on Instagram in recent weeks.
