Of all the retro trends, one simple style is having a moment above all others—tiny tendrils. A certified 2000s stunner, these face-framing pieces add a fun pop to any ‘do. And everyone from Dua Lipa to Hailey Bieber is taking note. Wear them sleek and simple with a pony or barely-there braided in festival-ready waves, the tendril hair trend is versatile and very in for summer. Here are seven takes on the look we’re dying to try.
1. Wispy Tendrils
Perfectly pulled apart, artfully placed flyaways add a subtle something to the simplest of styles.

3. Spiky Tendrils
A little bit of hair gel gives these pointed pieces a punkish shape. A slicked-back top knot really seals the deal.
