Fringe 'irritating' Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama is "getting irritated" by her hair.

The US First Lady had a fringe cut into her locks earlier this year, but the face-framing strands are now at an awkward length and need careful styling each day.

"The bangs are a day-to-day proposition, we take it day by day. They're starting to grow out, getting a little irritating. But it's OK. We'll be good," she said.

And it seems like Michelle is ready for a change in her hairstyle once again.

She added: "It's fun, but… well, I'm like a girl. What's next?"

Fashion-loving Michelle also admitted she is looking forward to spring so she can wear "colour" and "flowy fabrics".

When asked what she is excited about wearing this season she said, "Just being able to wear a skirt and some flats! Spring is lots of colour, lots of flowy fabrics. It'll be good!"

While Michelle's fringed style was a hit with most people, outspoken Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld recently slammed the look, saying it made her look like "a newsreader".

"I don't understand the change of hair. I adore Madame Obama, I love her. But there is a news reader at LCI which has this haircut," he said

"Frankly, this doesn't suit her. The fringe was a bad idea, it's not good."
