Olivia Culpo Is Making a Serious Case for Straight-Edge Bangs

Olivia Culpo Is Making a Serious Case for Straight-Edge Bangs

Curtain fringe may have earned top honors as *the* hottest trend in fall hair, but Reprisal star Olivia Culpo doesn’t need to follow the trends: She’s busy making her own. Case in point? The totally straight-edge, Mia Wallace-esque bangs the model just debuted over on Instagram.


Taking to social media to show off her completely made-over ‘do, the actress wrote, “Today I got bangs and a horse.” Not a bad combo, if we do say so ourselves! She also appeared to have taken a few inches off her locks, which appeared to just graze her collarbone, angling up even shorter in the back.

The eye-framing cut was a totally new look for Culpo, 25, who has been sporting a shoulder-length lob since January, when she chopped her tresses into a sleek lob in front of fans via Facebook Live.

Of course, it’s entirely possible this new, banged look may have been a temporary style for a photo shoot or a role: The former Miss Universe has posted several shots since in which she’s rocking a sleek, pulled-back, and there’s no sign of a chop over on her hairstylist, Justine Marjan’s page.

Either way, the damage has been done: We’re officially itching for straight-edge fringe!
