My, how times have changed since Coachella was a sea of flower crowns, Dutch braids, and (yiiiiiiikes) headdresses.
While some of the hair looks at this year’s festival were throwback chic, a few moments will scream “2024” for years to come. In a good way. We think.
Doja Cat Delivers Hair Monster Extravaganza
Stylist and artist Charlie Le Mindu debuted his “hair monster” garments in 2009 at London Fashion Week, but it all seemed brand new as Doja and 22 backup dancers blew the crowd away in nothing but hair.
Olivia Rodrigo Fangirls For Ms. Gwen
When Olivia jumped onstage during No Doubt's reunion performance for a surprise duo on “Bathwater,” she did so sporting band merch and a Mohawk crafted from space buns — Gwen Stefani’s signature style.
Chlöe Bailey Serves Sculptural Hair Art
What the visionary Fesa Nu does with braids, twists, and locs is nothing short of genius, and nowhere was that more apparent than when Chlöe busted out this stunning creation for her Coachella set.

Accessory du Jour: Main Character Cowboy Hats
You know why they were everywhere even without hearing the opening bars of "Texas Hold ’Em."
Among them: Megan Fox topping her 26” Bellami extensions with one, Paris Hilton crashing Vampire Weekend’s set in one, and Teyana Taylor doubling down on cowgirl slay by pairing hers with head-to-toe almost denim.
