When it comes to hair, polished ’90’s blowouts vibes are having a moment once again. Think supermodel hair like that of Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, and Claudia Schiffer. This is a hairstyle that isn’t afraid to look “done”; in fact, it begs the world to acknowledge the time, care, and skill put into it. It’s classy and classic, and has a “rich vibe” about it that’s a welcome change to the greasy ponytails and haphazard clips we’ve relied on for the past year.

“After a decade of trending minimal beauty looks, everything from the ’90’s is coming back, from makeup to accessories to hair, so it makes perfect sense that ’90’s blowouts are the next big hit. After a turbulent few years, people are ready to feel glam again, that extra ooh-la-la when you walk out the door or go meet up with friends,” says celebrity hairstylist Melece Pali from Salon Ziba.

The 90’s bounce blowout is the next-level hair trend you need to know about. Grab your round brush, because in case you hadn’t heard, 2023 is the year that luxe, gravity-defying blow dries are back in full force.

The look, favoured by the likes of JLo or Kim Kardashian, takes the classic blow dry a step further, with supersized sculpted waves, tons of body and – you guessed it – incredible bounce.

 “I think there is a trend towards longer, more styled hair. There’s a mood of getting dressed-up and going out,” says Nadya Putri from Salon Ziba. “We’ve seen it before with the post-depression era in the ‘20s or post-war hair in the ‘50s and ‘60s.”

How to Prep Hair for a ’90s Blowout in 4 Easy Steps

Step 1)
Before picking up any hot tools, it’s paramount to set the proper foundation for your blowout. “I recommend washing the hair with a Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.

Step 2)
Once your hair is freshly washed and damp, we recommend treating strands with a styling prep product catered to your hair type. “For fine hair, prep the hair with a Volumizing mousse throughout, and for medium to thicker hair, apply a volume spray at the roots.

Step 3)
Once your hair is properly prepped, it’s time to start your styling session. Blow dry with a round brush, section by section starting at the nape. Use Velcro rollers to set each section. When  you are all done, let the hair cool. Keep the rollers on until you are ready to step out. 

Step 4 )
Once each section is cool, release the rollers and rake the hair with your fingertips to set it in place. Finish with hairspray: spritz some dry texturizing hairspray or a strong hold hairspray all over to ensure your blowout holds up.

Gen Z style source Emma Chamberlain traded her usual look for a polished ’90s blowout that featured curled ends, while TikToker Addison Rae and actress Hailee Steinfield have been playing with various levels of a blowout over the past few months. Meanwhile, Doja Cat took no prisoners with the ’90s blowout from her ‘Streets’ video. 

While it is definitely a more effortful look—you’re going to want to dust off your blow dryer, round brushes and rollers to achieve this hairstyle—the ’90s blowout isn’t prescriptive in how you wear it.
