The return of hair tendrils

If you were a teenager in the 2000s, there’s a high chance you sported the popular hair tendrils trend. You know hair tendrils – those ‘bits’ that you left out in the front of your very slick (read: greasy) ponytail. Yep, them – they’re back, according to a whole host of celebrities like Meghan Markle and Bella Hadid.

Cara has been rocking the tendril since 2016, when she left the front of her double bun hairstyle out.

Will you be embracing the hair tendrils trend?
