"To address the most significant event of the weekend, I love her bangs," Obama said, according to USA Today. "She looks good. She always looks good."

GET THE LOOK:

"Michelle Obama's new bang is texturized which gives a softer piecey edge to the normal blunt style," reveals George Gonzalez of George the salon Chicago. "To achieve, chip in with the tips of your shears followed by using texturizing scissors to soften the initial cut to finish. Hair types that are very coarse, thick and curly will have a harder time pulling this look off unless you want to take the time to use a blow dryer and flat iron to style. Ideally, straight or slightly wavy strands that are fine to normal will work best for this new 'Obama Bang'."

If your clients want to get this look but are afraid of making the cut, skip the snip and get a frizz-free fringe with Hairdo by HairUWear Clip-In Bangs. This effortless bang is already styled, just clip in and it will provide an instant hair transformation.
