Worth Trying Y2K Curly Hairstyles

Let’s have a look at some of the best Y2K curly hairstyles that are making a comeback, and show you how to recreate these looks at home. Get ready to turn heads with your retro-inspired curls!

Crimped Loose Curls

If you have blonde hair or even any other color, try to do a soft crimp if you are not curly head but how lucky you are if you have this type of curly hair texture, you are blessed with a natural Y2K vibe. Softly crimped hair with nothing on your hair and just only your natural hair looks so so Y2K perfect than anything else. 

Slightly Coiled Curls With Bandana

Okay so how many times you were out of energy to do your hair differently and found no inspo to still look cute and cool? What did you do in the end? You must have added a hair accessory and what’s better than a bandana? Bandana hairstyles are actually so on-trend because of the Y2K fashion trends roaming everywhere. And without a doubt a bandana in a color that makes your hair pop or goes with your outfit will instantly make you look like true fan of Olivia Rodrigo. 

Double Buns With Front Micro Braid Strands

As much as we love our hair up, we want something other than the regular messy buns, space buns, and all those obvious buns we do regularly, entering the curly double bun with front strand micro braid with subtle to barely-there bangs. Love how the messy buns look with the soft curls and spiky details while the tiny bangs and micro braid make this a perfect Y2K curly hairstyle to wear everyday.

Double Curly Ponytails

Curls have so much volume and frizz obviously, so most curlyheads want a hairstyle that keeps the excessive volume at the back rather than always using your hands to set them back. So, here’s a great option for the ones who hate all the hair in front, do double high ponytails and keep the softest and smallest front strands to give the perfect 2000s vibe.

Side Swept With Barrettes

Side parted hairstyles with the perfect swept effect are so so cool for curly hairs and I cannot stress this more. And how about adding some clippy hair accessories to make this a perfectly Y2K-inspired clippy barrette hairstyle. I personally love playing with my hair accessories as they are game changers for when I have no energy to try a new hairstyle and also want something unique and cool.

Space Braids With Mini Hair Ties

Y2K and no braid? No, it’s not going to happen with my list of curly Y2K hairstyles. I would love a sleek space braid on curly hair with perfectly curly front stands and adding a lot of hair ties with different or same colors and matching them with my outfit to appear as a real Y2K queen. You can also go for box braids as they also look great on everyone.

Conclusion

These Y2K curly hairstyles are a perfect way to add a retro touch to your look. With their playful and fun vibe, they're sure to make a statement wherever you go.
