2021 is the year of comebacks. If you thought blush draping, brown lipsticks and scrunchies are the only trends from the past that are making a comeback this year, you are in for a surprise. One of the most unexpected trends from the ‘60s that no one saw coming is the famous flip hair.
We have already spotted celebrities like Ariana Grande, Millie Bobby Brown and Cardi B embracing this retro hair look. The fun and flirty flip hairstyle is just in time for spring and looks stunning on every hair length. Here’s all the inspiration you need.

Those with short hair can also opt for this flipped-in hair look. If retro is not your style, this JLo inspired flipped-in bob is super modern. Flipped-in or flipped-out you will definitely look your stylish best this spring!
