The '90s are back in a big way, and nowhere is that more evident than in the world of hair colour and style. Y2K (Year 2000) refers to the nostalgic fashion from the 1990s to 2000. As Y2K trends are taking the fashion world by storm, K-pop stars such as Taeyeon, NEW JEANS and HyunA are leading the charge with their vibrant clothes and vintage hairstyles. Don’t be left behind - read on to discover the 5 Y2K hairstyles in vogue!

1.Black hair with a high ponytail

Simple and chic - No fancy colours are needed in this fresh hairstyle. A black high ponytail with cute hair clips is all you need to channel youthful vibes like Hyein, born in 2008 and the youngest member of NEW JEANS.

2.Rose gold pigtails

Taeyeon jumps on the Y2K trend with two ponytails. Although the rose gold colour is eye-catching, it gives off a gentle and dazzling charm. Match this hairstyle with light pink makeup to look like a sweet peach!

3.Colourful straight hair

Hyein from NEW JEANS completely brings her hair back to the Y2K era! Splashing half of her straight hair with vibrant colours highlights her youthful energy, while a beaded braid on the forehead brings a face-framing effect and showcases her bold beauty.

4.Blonde to brown ombre with cute accessories

HyunA presents different looks in her “NABILLERA” music video, Y2K fashion of course wouldn’t be left out. This look – a lovely checked skirt with cherry embroidery, matching with blonde to brown ombre and cherry hair clips – takes cuteness to the utmost level!

5.Dark brown baby braids

Simple and striking: Hair in the common dark brown shade brings its rendition of Y2K charm. Just spend a little effort braiding some strands on either side of your face for a low-key but creative look that leaves a strong impression.
