Nothing beats '90s nostalgia more than the Millennium Dome. Period. That is, ofc, if we're discounting Pamela Anderson and her signature hair look of the time. And no, not the actor's free-flowing golden Baywatch tresses but her red carpet updo.

Though, having said that, this time it's not Pam's locks we're gushing over; instead, it's Khloé Kardashian's recreation of said look. When worlds collide, hey?!

Celebrity makeup artist, Ash K Holm shared a snap of Kardashian's glam hairstyle on her very own Instagram page, captioning the post "SUMMER INSPO @khloekardashian 🖤 #AshKHolmMakeup". 

It's very much giving Anderson at the Cannes Film Festival, 1995. Minus the pencil-thin eyebrows, that is...

While Ash created Khloé's makeup look, celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton was tasked with mastering the iconic Pamela Anderson updo.

Now, if you are none the wiser as to what makes such a trademark hairstyle, fear not for I'm here to inform. Side note: if this is so, I'm guessing you're Gen Z (no, bc no judgement—hey, generation sis!).

As shown in the above two pictures, the look is characterised by hair that has been twisted up and secured high on the head with a claw clip or bobby pins. Tendrils tumbling down add an effortless feel, not forgetting the long face-framing bangs to finish.

The reality star-meets-fashion founder's sister—the one and only Kim Kardashian—is also prone to said look and even wore this very 'do for the wedding of the century. Aka Kourtney Kardashian Barker and Travis Barker's 2022 Portofino marriage.

So, while we aren't too sure to which event Khloé is wearing the hairstyle, anything is on the cards. A legally-bounding ceremony or a trip to the grocery store? Who knows
