At the recent Autumn/Winter 2024 fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris, the many wet waves, curly mullets and braids of all sizes in the crowds seemed to be styled with a shared philosophy: keep it tight at the top.

Hair, no matter the length or the flow, was for the most part arranged to avoid obscuring faces.

Curls and longer cuts were often pulled behind ears, and some people slicked back their hair or styled their bangs to keep them from hiding eyes. Lots of those bangs were sharp and angular – especially among devotees of Japanese fashion – while others were more relaxed.

All were a reminder that there is nothing wrong with showing a bit of forehead. – The New York Times
