Jennifer Aniston’s hair deserves an Instagram account of its own. With a few exceptions, no star has served up as much dreamy hair inspiration as the former Friends star.
Of course, no sentence about iconic hairstyles would be complete without mentioning The Rachel. You’d be hard-pressed to find any other hairstyle from the last 25 years that remains an enduring pop culture reference and a symbol of the 90s.
Those choppy layers, that gravity-defying bounce, those delicious caramel highlights, Jennifer Aniston’s cult 90s cut became era-defining statement, even picking up a loyal fan following that included Tyra Banks, Christina Aguilera and Meg Ryan (all of whom headed to their hairdressers for their own rendition of the style).
Countless styles later, though, Jennifer Aniston’s hair is still coveted, morphing from short and choppy to long and beautifully layered and more recently bob-length. The secret to its enduring appeal? It’s the definition of ‘pretty’ hair, finding that elusive sweet spot of looking sexy but soft, tousled but natural.
So take it from Jen – give your hair a break from over-styling, opt for looks that celebrate the strands you already have and embrace your natural texture.
