Crimped hair never left our radar – here’s how to wear it

Grab your crimper – it’s time to make like Latto and Beyonce, and turn up the volume with some serious waves. Browse our inspo!

While many might say that crimped hair had its heyday in the 80s, it has never disappeared from the curly girl’s hairstyle roster! However, crimping is definitely having a moment as a celeb favourite, with Beyoncé rocking the style for her new album announcement in an internet-breaking Instagram post, and Big Energy rapper Latto working crimped hair at the Billboard Music Awards.

Crimped hair can be achieved with a crimping tool for tight kinks in the hair, or with a deep waver for a highly sculpted look. Always use plenty of heat protection when using hot tools – even if you’re styling extensions – and don’t scrimp on the hairspray if you want to keep the style in for longer.
