Fan Casting '90s Hair in Sort by Tropes

Hair fluctuated between long hair reminiscent of the late 60s/70s and very short hair initially carried on from the 80s but later inspired from the mid-60s. Often the hairstyles, like the clothing of the era, would be the most casual and low-maintenance styles possible. For men, this meant letting hair just fall wherever it may, creating a distinctive style, referred to as "curtains" or a "bowl cut". For girls this meant simply tying it back (usually by gathering it at the nape) so it wouldn't get in the face - and always with a scrunchie. In the mid-90's (roughly 1994 until about 1997), it was also very common for teenage and college aged boys to wear their hair like Kurt Cobain.
