Retro Flip-Out Midi
A hard-set retro shape: smooth flat crown, blunt fringe and a sharply flipped-out hem all the way round.

What makes this look work
The shape comes mostly from:
- brushed-out, soft waves
- movement from the c-bend
- blunt fringe
Before you choose it
- Upkeep · Medium upkeep
- Expect a few minutes of styling most days to keep the shape reading the way it does here.
- At the salon
- A perm (heat or cold) may be involved — worth discussing your hair's condition first.
How any reference lands depends on your texture, density and daily routine — that conversation is what your stylist is for.
Bring this to your appointment
“I like the c-bend and the medium silhouette, and the blunt fringe. Can we talk about how this would sit with my texture and my routine?”
