Last week, Jennifer Aniston stepped out at the 2024 Golden Globes with a brand new haircut and today – that is, just short of 7 days post-debut – she's given the chop a texturised makeover, with a look we like to call: runway-ready bedhead hair.

Late last night while we Brits were fast asleep, Jennifer took to the 29th Annual Critics Choice Awards in California [14 January 2024] where she was nominated under the 'best actress' category for her role in the Apple TV+ hit, The Morning Show. While the star was pipped to the win by Succession's Sarah Snook (a worthy victor), it was Jen's hairstyle that had us crowning her with the best beauty look of the night. A winner, nonetheless.

Her newly trimmed shoulder-length lob cut was styled in loose curls with lots of texture and volume in the roots. The creative genius behind this bedhead-esque style was the actor's longtime hairstylist and friend, Chris McMillan who also took to Instagram to share a video reel of the getting ready process.

If you were to look up 'zhuzh' in the dictionary, you'd be met with a picture of this very look.

Unlike her GG hair, for last night, Chris and Jen opted to style her locks in a very Gen Z middle parting, making for quite the switch-up. I mean, she is world-renowned for her 'Rachel' side-sweeping 90s part!

Either way (quite literally), Jennifer's tresses are top-tier. So, allow us to find a tiara and book a venue for a crowning award ceremony like no other. King Charles could never.
