Ah, the sweet nostalgia of the early 2000s—a time when side bangs ruled the roost and frosted tips were all the rage. While some of the trends from that era have made a comeback (hello, butterfly clips and low-rise jeans), one hairstyle has remained relatively dormant: the classic Y2K side bang. Fear not, though, because Selena Gomez and Megan Thee Stallion are here to change that.

Let’s start with Selena, shall we? After spending the night celebrating Benny Blanco’s birthday with her bestie Nicola Peltz-Beckham, Selena decided to rock a throwback hairstyle that sent shockwaves through the fashion world. The occasion? Well, it was none other than a pair of side-swept bangs paired with a striking cherry-red ensemble that exuded vintage glamour.

With her hair parted in an off-center side and perfectly straightened, Selena’s brunette tresses flowed effortlessly down to her chest, radiating bounce and shine with every step. But it was her millennial-coded bangs that stole the show, framing her face and adding a touch of sultry drama to her look. And let’s not forget: This isn’t the first time Selena has rocked a side pony. In the late 2000s and early 2010s, she was the reigning queen of the style, wearing it everywhere from the red carpet to the set of “Wizards of Waverly Place.”

But Selena isn’t the only one bringing back this iconic hairstyle – enter Megan Thee Stallion. Known for her fierce attitude and killer style, Megan turned heads with her latest hair transformation. Opting for a deep side parting with thick bangs falling across her forehead, Megan’s long black curls complimented her soft, glamorous look perfectly.
