Famous hairstyles you see on musicians, political figures, royalty and any other kind of celebrity can often inform your own hairstyle choices – whether you like it or not. We’re guessing that if all your girlfriends had ‘The Rachel’ in the 90s, you probably had it too (even if you hated Friends). Or maybe you’re still trying to perfect Marilyn Monroe’s undone curls or Cher’s long sleek locks. Whatever it is, we feel you. Some hairstyles are so iconic that you just have to give them a go for yourself.

We’ve gathered up some of the most famous hairstyles of all time. Click through the gallery below to see the hairstyles – and who’s responsible for making them iconic…
Cher hair
Long and sleek, Cher’s hair became famous on its own. And the XXL lock look has come back recently with Kim Kardashian and Rihanna rocking the style.
The ‘Rachel’
Jennifer Aniston’s fashionable Friends character, Rachel Greene, had an extremely layered bob that was HUGE in the 90s. Was there a woman who didn’t ask their hairstylist for ‘the Rachel’? We doubt it.
The beehive
In the 1960s, the beehive was THE hairstyle to have. And thanks to Amy Winehouse and Adele, there was a resurgence of the glam look in the 2010s.
The bouffant
Jackie Kennedy Onassis is widely known to be the woman responsible for the popularity of the bouffant hairstyle in the 60s.
The Marcia middle part
Marcia Brady (aka the eldest daughter on The Brady Bunch) is well-remembered thanks to her lush centre-parted locks.
The Posh bob
When we think of Posh Spice, the first thing that comes to mind is Victoria Beckham’ signature short and angled bob.
Shirley Temple ringlets
We still think those tightly coiled curls that are synonymous with Shirley Temple are the CUTEST!
Farrah Fawcett’s feathered ‘do
Farrah’s famed feathered ‘do was a 70s classic.
Marilyn Monroe curls
Marilyn Monroe’s blonde, dishevelled curls were incredibly iconic – just like the rest of her features.
The pixie cut
Actress and activist Mia Farrow is not only associated with the pixie cut but according to her, she created it back in the 60s!
Old Hollywood waves
Actress Veronica Lake’s iconic peek-a-boo hairstyle screams old Hollywood glamour.
Meg Ryan’s shaggy bob
Meg Ryan’s shaggy, layered bob was big in the 90s but with the likes of Alexa Chung and Dakota Johnson sporting a modern twist on the style, we think it’s on its way back!
Space buns
Carrie Fisher kicked off this trend when she starred as the space-bun-sporting Princess Leia in Star Wars. The double-bun look has since trended thanks to pop stars like Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry.
Dolly Parton’s big hair
Dolly Parton’s famous hairstyle was VOLUME. And it’s still iconic.
The flat top
Grace Jones’ signature flat-top hairstyle was created using a men’s razor.
Anna Wintour’s blunt bob
Vogue editor and Condé Nast artistic director Anna Wintour has a look she likes and she bloody sticks to it. The Dame has paired her blunt bob and fringe with oversized sunnies for as long as we can remember.
I remember most of these celebrity hairstyles, especially Billy Ray, Shirley Temple and Dolly Parton.
Many hairstyles need experienced skills. Well, wigs are also important. If you want a special hairstyle, you can consider shopping for wigs, cause wigs are easy to deal with.
Here I recommend an online wigs and clothing store–https://www.jurllyshe.com/wigs-collection.html, here you can choose whatever suitable wigs you like, and the price is not high.
