OH HIYA zigzag parting


I for one was mad for the zigzag parting back in the 90s, diligently following the instructions in my Bliss magazine so that I could have a parting that would perfectly compliment my tufty crimped mane. Reminded of this look by many, many school photos, I have no intention of sporting the insane, zigzag parting/crimp combo ever again. The parting however, had been dragged from the 90s and rejuvenated by the likes of Blake Lively and Jessie J, giving hair a shot of instant cool. Blake demonstrates how the zigzag can be used to create texture and volume to limp hair, where Jessie, never one to leave anything looking regular, sees the parting as just another element of her head that can be made a bit wackier. 


















Either way, in the words of Jessie J ‘the zigzag parting is back’, so grab something pointy and jump on the easy, totally flattering trend.




We tried out both versions of the parting, Blake's style proved wearable, Jessie's style was perhaps a bit too mickey mouse for every day activities.
