She has *fringy* hair.
She has her fringe slightly over her eyes?

Thanks

Your fringe is the part of your hair that hangs down in front of your forehead.

Some hairstyles don't have a fringe.

Some fringes have a parting, where the hair hangs down over the forehead but some goes left and some goes right.

A long fringe will hang down in front of your eyes.

In the past, I've heard some American people call a fringe 'bangs'.

I'm not sure if fringy is a real word - sounds like someone has made up their own adjective from the noun 'fringe'.
