A side-parting renaissance is upon us, and it's in large part thanks to Kim Kardashian. Although the Skims founder frequently changes her length and hair colour, she rarely ever strays from her trademark middle parting, which has continued to gain popularity in recent months thanks to some lighthearted teasing from Gen Z. But while TikTok may see side partings as inherently dated, Kardashian looked chic and modern with hers in the photo she shared on Instagram.
Friends like Emily Ratajkowski and Tracy Romulus were quick to comment on the new style, expressing their enthusiasm over the side parting with heart eyes and flame emoji. Kardashian's hairstylist, Chris Appleton, also shared his approval a day earlier when she first debuted the new hair, writing "Yes side part." While the side parting is a big departure for Kardashian, there's no telling how permanent of a change it will be. Previously, she's experimented with all kinds of aesthetics, including a blond lob, bleached brows, and even "glass hair."
What's most exciting about this particular transformation is the hope it provides for side-parting stans. See Kardashian make a case for the return of the side part below, and find out if you're ready to make the switch yourself.
