Discover the Best Big Texan Hair Must-haves

Get ready to channel your inner Texan with the return of Big Hair

Bella Hadid has snagged herself a cowboy, TV sensation Yellowstone has announced another spin-off, teased to be starring the Texan legend Matthew McConaughey, while Taylor Swift’s self-titled debut release returned to Billboard’s Vinyl Albums chart in February almost 18 years since it was released. 

Yeehaw, hair enthusiasts! If you've been dreaming of some serious volume and a touch of Southern charm, then buckle up because big, bold ‘Texas hair’ has made a Grand Ole comeback in 2024.

‘Beyoncé's voluminous “Super Bowl Texan hair” has sparked a revival of the big hair trend, but this time with a Southern twist,’ says Corinne Mcnaughton, award-winning stylist at Medusa Salons.

Taking inspiration from the glamorous, gravity-defying looks of the ‘70s and ‘80s, the Texas hair trend embraces the Dolly Parton motto, ‘The higher the hair, the closer to God.’ It's all about channelling that bold, confident energy reminiscent of women from states like Louisiana, Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama who have been rocking big, beautiful hair for decades.

‘But it's not just Beyoncé boasting the big blow-outs – other style icons are jumping on the big hair bandwagon too,’ adds Corinne. ‘Miley Cyrus recently paid homage to her Tennessee roots and iconic godmother, Dolly Parton, with a ‘70s-inspired hairdo at the Grammys.’

So, how can you achieve this larger-than-life look at home? It's easier than you think! Invest in hot or Velcro rollers and get ready to add some serious oomph to your locks.

‘Using rollers after blow-drying and finishing with hairspray will give you that iconic Texas-sized mane,’ advises Corinne. ‘It's all about embracing your inner Texan and the volume!’

Whether you're a country music fan, a cowboy enthusiast, or just someone who loves a good dose of nostalgia, big hair is here to stay in 2024. So, pump up the volume and get ready to turn heads wherever you go.

As you embark on your big hair journey, remember that confidence is the ultimate accessory. So, throw on your favourite cowboy boots, strut your stuff, and let your hair do the talking. After all, everything's bigger in Texas – including your fabulous locks!
