Recreate This Viral Tiktok 90s Zig-Zag Hairstyle RN
Written by Urvi ShahDec 03, 2021
TikTok’s vault of beauty-related hacks is ceaseless - from employing a rose-quartz roller to blend foundation to dotting the eyes in a certain way to look ‘dateable’, the platform is our go-to for easy-to-replicate hacks that work. Recently, another trend took the application by storm: the 90s low-slung bun that parts your hair in a zig-zag fashion. TikTok star Shania Christina posted a video of herself recreating the ultra-pretty look - and it garnered over half a million views on the app. And rightfully so - it’s gorgeous. There are countless spin-offs of the style on Instagram, and we’re loving each of them. Here’s how you pull it off yourself.
To create the zig-zag parting, comb your hair back with a rattail comb, and part your hair in the middle. With the longer end of the comb, work your way through to the back of your scalp in zag-zag motions.
Twist your hair back into a loose bun, and secure it with a claw clip - or any clip that holds your hair.
Curl the ends with a narrow-barrelled hair tong as used by Shania in her video.
Use an edge brush to comb your stray hairs or flyaways into submission - and you’re done!
