As the New Year came, Aniston embraced a laid-back vibe, showcasing her texturized hair during the Golden Globes 2024, which some suggested looked unkempt.

Several videos and images of the Hollywood icon made rounds online, which got the public’s attention. Fans took to social media to express their thoughts on Aniston, with some suggesting that the actress change her look.

“What’s with the uncombed hair?” one person said, as another one agreed that she looked messy, adding that “the hair is throwing me off.” “Same hair for the last 20 years,” another wrote, while a third suggested that Aniston try a new hair color. “You have the same look and color since 1999,” another pointed out. “You are gorgeous, but you need a change.”

Page Six particularly called Aniston’s haircut “The Rachel,” paying homage to the star’s beloved character on “Friends.” However, some social media users thought otherwise and claimed that Rachel’s hair was “bigger and more elaborate.”

The actress, who famously portrayed Rachel Green on “Friends,” once expressed her thoughts about the iconic “Rachel” haircut. Although she didn’t hate it, Aniston did not like it and felt better with her style as she aged.

“That was kind of cringy for me,” she said of her hair back then. As years passed, she learned to embrace her beauty regardless of aging. The actress highlighted her appreciation for a more natural approach, emphasizing the importance of hair health over perfection.

In recent years, Jennifer Aniston launched her haircare brand, LolaVie, which she sometimes promotes on her Instagram account. Some of her products include vegan and cruelty-free items while the brand uses recyclable packaging wherever possible.
