Jennifer Aniston's new 'curve cut' hairstyle is the most wearable version of the 90s 'Rachel cut' we've seen

Cosmopolitan16 hours ago
The reigning monarch of 'the Rachel' haircut (and the founder and face of it), Jennifer Aniston, is making a case for a brand new, re-imagined version of the style. Enter: The one where she got the 'curve cut'.
In a recent Instagram video post, Jen revealed a brand new product drop from her very own haircare brand, LolaVie – which we, of course, are excited to try. "Our Dry Shampoo just dropped 🩶… and IT'S SO GOOD! I hope you love too! 🥰 @lolavie," she wrote to caption her post.
That said, it wasn't the dry shampoo that had us catching flies (read: our jaws were on the floor), but her freshly chopped hairstyle. The longer, yet still very much layered style is giving Friends 'season 6'.
Style-wise, said layers curve inward, making for the infamous curve cut (also known as the 'C cut'), which was first imagined in 2023. This is a hybrid style that combines the best elements of various looks. Think: the layers of a more refined, tamed wolf cut, but with the feathery aspect of the iconic 'Rachel'. Aka, lots of 90s flippy ends.
And the best part? It's so versatile! The curve cut can be tailored to different hair lengths and textures, from bobs to longer styles. Plus, it requires minimal styling thanks to its layers that naturally frame the face.
So, if you're seeking a re-upped, low-maintenance haircut for summer 2025, why not follow in Jen's footsteps with this very look?! After all, she is a certified trendsetter.

Rod Stewart sparks backlash with ‘disrespectful' AI-generated Ozzy Osbourne tribute

Foolish Behaviour. Rod Stewart is facing scrutiny for paying tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne with an AI-generated clip at one of his recent concerts. The video from the 'Maggie May' singer's show on Friday, August, 1, was captured by a concertgoer and showed footage of Osbourne celebrating in Heaven with other deceased music legends like Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Prince, Kurt Cobain, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse and George Michael as Stewart's 1988 hit 'Forever Young' played in the background. Advertisement 12 Rod Stewart's AI-generated video showed Ozzy Osbourne with several fallen stars. iamsloanesteel/Instagram 12 Ozzy Osbourne and Prince both appeared in the AI-generated video. iamsloanesteel/Instagram AI-generated images of Whitney Houston, Tupac Shakur, Freddie Mercury, Aaliyah and XXXTentacion also appeared in the clip. Advertisement Osbourne appeared smiling with Turner as the Queen of Rock 'n' Roll held onto a selfie stick. In another part of the footage, the late Black Sabbath rocker held the selfie stick as he posed with several of the other late legends. 'Yes the rumors are true: I went to a Rod Stewart concert last night (lol) and witnessed man made horrors beyond my comprehension. Ozzy Osbourne with a selfie stick in heaven smiling with Tina Turner, Bob Marley, Prince, and…XXXTentacion,' the audience member captioned the video. 12 The Black Sabbath frontman was also seen smiling alongside Michael Jackson, who died in 2009. iamsloanesteel/Instagram 12 The rocker was also shown in Heaven with the Queen of Rock 'n' Roll Tina Turner. iamsloanesteel/Instagram Advertisement The concertgoer continued to express their distaste for the tribute, writing over the clip, 'This is the craziest most disrespectful s–t I ever saw in my LIFE!!!' 'Rod Stewart really thought this was a brilliant idea. 😑,' one person responded to the footage. 'I've seen some s—ty AI visuals in concerts but this is a new low. We truly are in the end times,' another replied. Several people insisted that Prince would be the most upset about his image being used for the AI video. 12 The AI-generated clip also showed Ozzy Osbourne with the late Amy Winehouse. iamsloanesteel/Instagram Advertisement 12 Rod Stewart has not responded to the backlash.'Weekend at Bernie's vibes. Prince didn't even want his music on Spotify and changed his name to a Symbol to protect his intellectual property I'm 100% sure he wouldn't have signed off on Rod Stuart Puppeteering his face for this tacky 💩,' someone wrote, while a second commented, 'Prince would beat rod stewart with hammers if he knew about this.' Prince changed his name to the unpronounceable symbol in 1993, with many speculating it was a ploy to get out of his contract with his longtime label, Warner Bros. Records. The 'Purple Rain' singer, who died in 2016 at age 57, was then referred to as the 'Artist Formerly Known as Prince.' The Post has reached out to Stewart and Osbourne's rep for comment. 12 Ozzy Osbourne died on July 22 at age 76.

29 Cool TikTok Products That Deserve Your Attention

Wonderskin's transfer-proof lip stain I'm sure you've seen an influencer or two pop on their lips in the beginning of a "get ready with me" that initially left you thinking, "What on earth?!" Sure, it looks a little wacky for a minute, but when you wipe it off, it leaves a gorgeous stain that'll last for up to 10 hours of yapping, snacking, and puckering. A fan-fave Biodance hydrating overnight mask because everyone's skin needs a little TLC, and there's nothing quite like waking up feeling hydrated and refreshed. It's packed with special forms of hyaluronic acid and collagen that penetrate more deeply to maximize product absorption, and you can even *see* it get to work as the sheet becomes transparent. Not only will you look glowy and moisturized, but this mask can help refine enlarged pores, enhance skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A six-pack of soda can lids with straws because everything just tastes better through a straw, *and* these are reusable, so no need to feel sorry for the turtles. And BTW, I'm not sure if you've ever thought about it, but do you really know where that can's lid has been before you put your lips on it? That *icky* thought kinda ruins the most satisfying and crispy "ahhh" after the first sip. A hands-free neck fan to answer your sweaty prayers during those hotter months when your office's AC keeps breaking down. And since this is blade-free, you can finally wear your hair down at the amusement park and not risk it getting caught in the fan. It offers 360-degree airflow to keep your entire neck and face cool — and did I mention it can run up to 16 hours?? A flower vase puzzle for any jigsaw masters who never shy away from a challenge. And the *ultimate* reward for finishing this 160-piece puzzle: Now you'll have the coolest conversation starter (and best bragging opportunity) just sitting in your living room.

These mini rice cakes allow you to relish some of the ultimate sweet treat flavors — like birthday cake and French toast — without leaving the comfort of your home. Bonus points: These yummy bites are made with quinoa, chia seeds, and flax seeds! Or a bag of Swedish candy mix because people on TikTok cannot get enough of the uniquely soft "Bubs" and mouthwatering sour skulls. I can't tell you how many times I've drooled over these delicious-looking bites through my phone! Reviewers say these have a fluffier texture and more natural flavor than American candy. A shower lamp allowing you to have a main character moment in your shower under ~moody~ lighting while you process something deep. It's water resistant and rechargeable, so you can finally have the most elite shower setup without worrying about causing a spark show. A Stanley cup snack tray that'll pair perfectly with your emotional support water bottle that you can't bear to leave the house without.

Your shiny, clean teeth will approve of the message "Work smarter, not harder." A self-heating ice cream scoop, because it's a universal experience: You set the ice cream out to thaw about 10 minutes before you want to actually have somehow, it's still frozen solid, and you're getting tempted to just microwave it. This scoop heats up when you press the button to make ice cream scooping as easy as pie — ooooh, that would be good with this vanilla bean!

Just pop this bag into a mug, add some hot water, and let it steep like you would your morning cuppa — but just remember this flavor is savory beef and not English breakfast.

Brandi Glanville suffers facial burns after Nair experiment goes awry

An experiment intended to rid 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum Brandi Glanville of a facial parasite left the former reality TV star with chemical burns. In a short video posted to TikTok on Sunday, Glanville, 52, said that she decided to use Nair to try to eradicate the parasite. However, the popular hair removal product aggravated her skin, leaving her with apparent chemical burns. 'I know I look attractive,' she joked. 'Good news, you don't have to spend a lot of money on peels and lasers anymore.' During the clip, she referred to the parasite as 'Caroline,' a possible reference to her 'Real Housewives' rival Caroline Manzo. In January 2023, Manzo accused Glanville of sexual assault during filming. This led to both of them departing the Morocco set of 'The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip.' That was also where Glanville previously said she might have contracted the parasite. Glanville has denied all claims Manzo has made against her, calling them absurd, Page Six reports. In her TikTok video, Glanville claims the Nair successfully moved the parasite ('Caroline') to a different part of her face upon application. 'Nair is the fountain of youth, I figured it out,' she said. 'But I overdid it … seven minutes, don't do it.' The first time Glanville shared information regarding the parasite, she claimed that she had consulted 'every doctor under the sun' but to no avail. The mysterious condition was said to have left her with frequent facial swelling and missing teeth. She told ET in December 2024 that she'd suspected a parasite had made its way into her system after the filming in Morocco. 'We had food sitting out for hours on end, and some of it was meat,' she said, adding that medical complications began six months later. Glanville claimed that she had since spent more than $70,000 on noninvasive procedures to pinpoint exactly what was going on. Notably, she was on IV antibiotics that alleviated swelling but proved to be too expensive. 'I've been on meds this whole year. I don't socialize. I don't go out,' she said at the time.
