The Hime Hair Cut - is it right for you?

Reflections Hair
A “hime” haircut as currently seen on Billie Eilish is a traditional Japanese style characterised by straight, long hair with a blunt-cut fringe at the front and straight cut along the sides. The name “hime” translates to “princess” in Japanese, with this style historically worn by noblewomen during the Heian period (794–1185). It’s a striking, edgy look and a bold choice.
What you need to know if you’re considering this cut.
Perfectly suited to angular face shapes, this is a style that takes time and maintenance to keep looking its best. You’ll ideally need straightening irons to ensure the finish is sleek every time and styling spray to hold it in place. Regular trims are a must (luckily, fringe trims are always free at Reflections!).
