Lobs and hair color that vaguely resembles cold brew might be having a moment on Instagram, but let's not forget the good — or the not so good — hairstyles of yore that paved the way for today's trends. In the name of #TBT, we're taking a look back at the styles celebs were rocking back in the '80s, '90s, and early '00s.
Want to know which look was all the rage the year you were born? Read ahead to see the styles that practically everyone rocked that year.
Curls were out and poppin' in 1988 — just ask Susan Sarandon.
Blunt cuts and bobs might be cool today, but in 1989, chopping your hair into a shag à la Kelly Lynch in Road House was where it was really at.
If you had curly hair in 1990, chances are you wore it with lots of volume at the roots like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman.
The rock 'n' roll shag haircut is trending for 2018, but Linda Hamilton was ahead of the curve in 1991.
Teased roots and a voluminous side bang would definitely be top of Drybar's menu had it existed in the early '90s.
Teased updos were appropriate all day every day back in the early '90s, not just for weddings and special events. Just ask Sally Field.
Considering how badass Uma Thurman looked with a bob and bangs in Pulp Fiction, it's no surprise the look is still a classic style up to this day.
Half-up, half-down looks in the '90s weren't complete without a few loose pieces of hair to frame the face.
In the 1996 film Scream, Courteney Cox wore her hair in a flipped-out shoulder-length cut. She kept it out of her face with a printed headband.
Everything Rachel Green — aka Jennifer Aniston — did with her hair back in 1997, the world did. That means slicked-back updos, chunky highlights, and the classic Rachel cut.
Cameron Diaz wasn't the only one chopping her hair into a chin-length bob in 1998.
Whether your hair was permed or straightened, you probably wore it with a loose curl at the end like Queen Latifah.
Sleek hair has proven to be a classic style from the early '00s to now, but it was the deep side parts that made the most impact.
Reese Witherspoon kept her curls combed out, but the main attraction circa 2001 was the accessories. Exhibit A: her bobby pins in Legally Blonde.
Find us someone who didn't want to copy Halle Berry's iconic pixie cut . . . we'll wait.
While more and more people have been embracing their natural hair textures in recent years, that doesn't mean curls weren't out and poppin' in the early '00s.
Whether your hair was long or short, you probably had it cut in cascading layers back in '04.
