Remember These Vintage Hairstyles? They’re Coming Back in Style Big Time

Have you looked around lately and noticed that everyone’s hair seems to look a little familiar but in a really good retro way. Fashion always recycles itself but right now it’s all about bringing back those iconic hairdos from the 20s all the way up to the 90s. From super defined waves to massive volume everything old is new again and honestly these looks are super fun and they actually work. If you wanna try something different but still look totally current check out these vintage hairstyles that are seriously trending right now.

Finger Waves

These super sleek defined waves started way back in the 1920s and they instantly make you look really polished and elegant. It takes a little gel and some pins to get the look but the final result is always worth the effort you put in.

The Beehive

The 1960s were all about massive height and this look is back but with a little less extreme volume than your grandmother might remember. Focus on creating a half-up half-down version by teasing the crown just enough to give a flattering lift and shape.

Curtain Bangs

These bangs are so popular right now and they were a huge hit in the 1970s because they frame your face so nicely. They are long and middle-parted and they’re the perfect way to try having bangs without committing to something too short and severe.

Pin-Up Curls

This method uses pin curls where you twist sections of damp hair and pin them to your head which is a great way to get heat-free waves. This heatless method from the 60s gives you those beautiful bouncy retro curls without damaging your hair at all.

Crimped Hair

That fun zigzag texture from the 70s and 80s is back and now it gives hair a cool texture instead of just being super puffy. All you need is a good heat protectant and a hair crimper tool and you can add a little bit of crimping for a cool modern twist.

Feathered Hair

If you like layers this 70s look is for you because it has soft layers that flow back away from your face. It works on basically any hair length and it gives your hair a lot of movement and flattering shape which is always nice.

The Afro

The Afro is a classic, natural style from the 70s that is back now. It means you let your natural hair texture and volume completely show off. It is a big, bold look that celebrates your amazing natural hair.

Permed Hair

Okay maybe the word “perm” makes you nervous because of the 80s but they have totally changed and you can get a beach wave perm now. This modern version gives you loose wavy hair that looks like you just came from the ocean all the time.

Bubble Ponytails

This look is super fun and comes from the 80s, when hair was bold. You basically create sections down your ponytail using hair ties to make little puffy bubble shapes and it looks like a fairytale princess.

Scrunchies

While not a hairstyle itself this 90s hair accessory is back in a massive way and everyone is using them again. Use a velvet or bright patterned scrunchie to upgrade your basic messy bun or ponytail and make it look instantly retro and cute.
