Flares
Flare pants first came out in the 1960’s, and the youth used them as a rejection to conservative dress codes. Flare pants remained popular through the 70’s, but style changed in the 80’s and 90’s, and they became less popular. But they did not go away fully; flares came back in the 2000’s with huge pop stars, like Britney Spears and the R&B group Destiny’s Child, wearing them.
Flares have not stopped being popular; they are still a big fashion trend today.
Scrunchies
Scrunchies were created in the early 1980s by a woman named Rommy Revson. She created it as a hair tie that would be gentler on women’s hair, but still maintain its shape. They became very popular among all women, from schoolgirls to adults. But like all things, they became less widely used until recent years. With celebrities like Ariana Grande and Gigi Hadid wearing them, they have risen again in popularity.
Claw Clips

Claw clips are also very easy to use, whether it is putting them in your hair or taking them out. They are a cute touch to every outfit.
Overall, some of our trends today have been cyclical. Flare, scrunchies, and claw clips are all common today, and there is some interesting information about their origins to explain why they keep coming back to popularity.
