Steal the look: 7 Celebrity hairstyles worth trying

Ever scrolled through Instagram or Pinterest, wishing you could pull off a celebrity hairstyle? Well, you’re not alone. Celebrities have been serving up some seriously stunning hair inspiration lately, and whether it’s a voluminous blowout or a daring cut, these stars know how to turn heads. But the best part? You don’t need a team of stylists or a red carpet event to channel your inner A-lister. Here are some celebrity hairstyles we think you should recreate. 

90s Supermodel Blowout

The 90s was a golden era for supermodels, and one of the most iconic beauty trends to come out of that time was the voluminous, bouncy blowout. Synonymous with confidence and high-fashion, this classic hairstyle has made its way back in recent years with various recreations on social media. Think of stars including Naomi Campbell and Cindy Crawford. Today, models such as Gigi Hadid have been pulling off this timeless look, embracing voluminous and bouncy strands while serving major “just stepped off the runway” vibes. Essentially this hairstyle is less about perfectly set curls and more about “undone” perfection with soft waves and a hint of volume.

Old Hollywood Bob

Thanks to stars including Selena Gomez and Zendaya, old Hollywood bob styles have made a comeback. Exuding sophistication and charm, Selena Gomez has been at the forefront of sporting this retro hairstyle on the red carpet. Known for her versatility in both music and fashion, Selena’s take on the bob is all about modern elegance with a twist. She’s rocked everything from a classic, chin-length bob to a more textured, tousled version, showcasing how the style can be both polished and playful. Whether it’s something playful and wavy like Zendaya’s bob, or something a bit sleeker and more structured like Selena’s, these A-list celebrities are proving that a classic bob can be rocked on and off the red carpet, making it perfect for elevating your style with a touch of old Hollywood glamour.

We must admit, Tems has been serving serious hair inspiration with this hairstyle. This relaxed, playful style further illustrates the versatility of Bantu knots. With her effortless blend of style and music, Tems never seems to miss when it comes to hairstyles.

Asymmetrical Side-Part Bang

This has quickly become one of the most daring hairstyles lately, and it’s only fitting that Cardi B is the face of this look. The chart-topping artist has been the driving force behind the various recreations of this hairstyle. Her ability to rock this style —and any other one for that matter — with ease and confidence has made it a go-to for anyone looking to make a statement with their hair. If you’re a “wig girl”, this is a must-try. Asymmetrical side-part bangs work beautifully with wigs, allowing you to switch up your look easily and experiment with different lengths, colours and textures. Whether you’re looking to add a little extra drama to a bone-straight wig, or want to give your bob a little extra edge, asymmetrical bangs are the perfect way to elevate your hair game.
