Jessica Simpson put a little punk rock in her hair when this style first caught on.
Streaks of color, reminding us of Ginger Spice, took off in the mid-00s. Looking edgy was never so easy.
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.
Flipped Layers – 2003
These flipped layers of beachy locks do look pretty low-key. But the look inspired by Farrah Fawcett requires a lot of styling and pricey texturing spray to achieve.
Mandy Moore wore this flipped-out blondie look for the Teen Choice Awards.
Voluminous Ponytails – 2005
Fifteen years ago, the poufy ponytail was a thing. Hilary Duff rocked it best. But you never know when a style is going to resurface.
To be prepared, be sure to have some superpower volumizing hair products on hand. Apply it before blow-drying, blow-dry upside down, and then do some teasing. Go easy on the superpower product!
Headbands - 2006
Headbands, or headache bands, as some like to call them, came back in the mid-00s. They add a chic streak to a plain hairstyle. In fact, headbands are a versatile accessory for virtually any hairdo.
They come flowery, beaded, woven, silky—in practically any design. From the roaring 20s to the hippie 60s, headbands create a variety of stylish looks.
