With the arrival of the new year comes a bunch of trends that we are sure to see on social media. Last year it was about ’90s style hairstyles, covering everything from baby braids and space buns to side bangs and butterfly clips.
Now Jennifer Lopez has kicked off the arrival of the hairstyles we’re going to see throughout 2022 and she’s giving us another shot of nostalgia.
J-Lo’s go-to hairstylist Chris Appleton posted a photo of the most recent look he created for the singer: cute mermaid waves created with extra-long hair extensions. In caption, he wrote: “Kick of 2022 with jlos Waves 🌊”

Of course, we’ve seen mermaid waves popping up every now and then in 2021. The old-fashioned hairstyle has been spotted on celebrities like Cardi B, Normani, Kylie Jenner, and Zendaya.
While we don’t know what this fire look was for, we do know how you can achieve a similar finish. When your hair is dry, style it into a large braid or a few smaller ones. Then, gently run a heated straightener over your braids a few times.
Once that’s done, undo the braid (s) and you will have gorgeous tumbling waves. Ruffle your hair a bit and finish with a finishing cream or light oil.
We’re sure J-Lo’s mermaid waves won’t be the last time we see this hairstyle in 2022. In fact, I might just go braid my hair now…
