The 90s brought some chic and wild hairdos. The 00s circled back to a palette of more feminine and natural styles.
Beyonce’s golden-blond face-framing highlight waves influenced many women.
Pigtails – 1998
We can thank Britney Spears for bringing back pigtails. But that was in 1997 when her music video “… Baby One More Time” dominated MTV airwaves.
The pop star tied her braided pigtails with pink ribbon and held them with fluffy scrunchies.
Front Tendrils – 1999
The late-90s brought us dual face-framing tendrils. Just two wisps on each side of the face created the style.
The look seemed to be gone forever, but in the late twenty-teens, it began making appearances once more.
The Fan Piece – 2001
Full House twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen played Michelle, the adorable youngest Tanner, and have been hair influencers ever since.
Here, a half-up, half-down fanned flip catches our eye. Bobby pins and a butterfly clip keep it all in place.
Crimped Pieces – 2002
Crimping came back in the 2000s, but with a welcome twist. The 90s went over-the-top with full heads of corrugated hair, while the 00s brought in just a touch of crimping.
Select strands of hair were crimped, like Britney Spears pictured here at the MTV VMA awards.
