Lil Nas X [2] is showing off the versatility of locs [3]. On Jan. 6, the rapper blew off some steam at an amusement park with friends sporting a half-up half-down hairstyle [4] that will immediately take you back to your childhood.

The style features space buns [5] with the bottom half of Lil Nas X's hair left flowing down his shoulders. A cross between goddess and butterfly locs [6], the style added a chic boho flare to the star's ensemble. The buns are just another example of the fun that he likes to have with his looks.

Lil Nas X has steadily been on his way to beauty icon status since rising to fame a few short years ago. From diamond-encrusted grillz [7] to a platinum-blond hair stint [8], Lil Nas X's love for beauty has landed him on many a "best of beauty" list and even resulted in him becoming YSL Beauty's US ambassador [9].

If you've yet to give them a try, faux-locs [10] can be a fantastic protective style that still offers quite a bit of versatility. Whether you opt for a shorter variation like Lil Nas X or longer locs, one thing's certain: you'll never run out of styling options. Take a closer look at Lil Nas X's hair ahead.
