1995 – 1999

In the early years of the show, the hairstyles of the models were mostly characterized by sleek bobs and perfect blowouts.

She wasn’t alone in this, with models like Helena Christensen sporting a boyish crop and Tyra Banks, a high side ponytail.

1999 – 2002

Come 1999, the brand decided to be more consistent with their hairstyles. From 1999-2002, all the models walked the ramp with straight, long hair. Some even wore hair extensions to achieve the desired waist length.

2003 – 2007

2003 came with a magical wand, the curler. For the next few years, the models wore their hair in different curls for a fun but messy hair do. Tight and soft or big and bouncy, the models wore their center parted, gorgeous hair with confidence. For the next four years or so, the show and its stylists went with this look and it had us swooning over it.

Enter 2008, and bam! The birth of the signature VS hair – big tousled waves, perfectly set to look effortless and fun. My favourite till date, the beachy waves gives me whole new hair goals. As stunning as it is, this hairstyle is also extremely easy to achieve. Use a straightener, pull outwards and turn or use a medium size curling wand, you can get the look at home.
