Call It a Comeback: The Return of '90s Waves

From cropped tops to geometric patterns and shapes, the minimalist somewhat moody fashions from the '90s popped up all over the Fall 2012 runways.

From cropped tops to geometric patterns and shapes, the minimalist somewhat moody fashions from the '90s popped up all over the Fall 2012 runways. And it seems this decade of grunge is influencing beauty, too. Tousled, softly spiraled waves have been spotted on the likes of Tyra Banks, Jennifer Lawrence, and Haley Reinhart in the past week alone. But this isn't the teased, ratted-out coiffure of the late '80s, which was often topped off with poufed mall bangs. This trend is all about tousled yet unrefined waves. It's a natural, effortless texture that requires little time to create.

To get your grunge on, spritz damp hair with a fixative, like Alterna Bamboo Boho Waves Tousled Texture Spray ($22). Finish by scrunching your strands with your fingers when blow-drying to create free-flowing curls. For extra wave, run a curling iron through random sections as needed.

Idol's Haley Reinhart on Music, Beauty, and Big Hair

It's been quite a year for songstress Haley Reinhart.

It's been quite a year for songstress Haley Reinhart. Not only did she release her debut album Listen Up in May, but she also performed at Lollapalooza earlier this month, becoming the first American Idol alum to ever take the stage at the festival. Those "two weeks of madness" as she lovingly called them may be over, but Haley shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, she's planning a US tour for the Fall. "I was born into the world of music," she says. "I know now that it was my fate and destiny to follow through with this career."

Somewhere between the tours and albums, Haley is managing to make a name for herself in another way: a singer with a highly approachable beauty aesthetic. Find out how Haley cultivated her sense of style when you keep reading.
