6 of Justin Timberlake's unforgettable NSYNC hair moments

Now, these days Justin Timberlake might be a suave red carpet pro, but anyone around in the ’90s and early ’00s will know that the Friends With Benefits star hasn’t always been so immaculately groomed.

Back in his NSYNC days, JT was responsible for sparking many a controversial hair trend. From those legendary frosted tips to that super curly blonde ‘do, his hairstyles will go down in hair history forever. Ready to rewind?

1. The frosted tips

Before hair colouring was more mainstream for guys, JT paved the way with his original take on guylights. Even as recently as last year John Mayer got frosted tips, so clearly JT’s influence is still strong 20 years on.

3. The blonde ‘fro

In 2000, the bleach was out and the curls were in — bigger and better than they’d ever been before.

Get to know the man perm.

Editor’s tip: If you’ve got natural curls and are looking for something that’s going to help lightly define them, the TONI&GUY Messy Salt Spray is ideal. It’ll enhance your natural texture without making your curls crispy or noodle-like.

6. The shaved head

RIP beautiful curls. Justin said Bye Bye Bye to it all in 2001 when he debuted this allover buzz cut. Millions of teenage girls the world over went into mourning and life as we knew it was over forever, boohoo!
