There's no such thing as a free lunch, but there are a select few free beauty trends. Don't get us wrong: we'll gladly spend our entire paycheck to attain a banging double process hair colour [1] (hello, buttered rose gold [2]). But there is a special kind of happiness when a specific hair part becomes all the rage — because that style costs absolutely nothing to do yourself.

As The Guardian reports, the hair ear tuck [3] — yes, literally the simple act of folding your hair behind your ear — is currently everywhere. Need visual proof? Check out where Meghan Markle [4]'s hair was while she announced her engagement to Prince Harry (spoiler: 'twas tucked [5]). Or mosey on over to this post about Margot Robbie's beauty look [6] at the 2018 Golden Globes — and check out her strand placement. The ear tuck even accompanied Emma Stone [7] up to the 2017 Oscar podium when she accepted her best actress award.

Read on to see this easy-going style in action — then tuck that hair proudly!
