The perfectly choppy, shaggy layers and the mid-length cut became the most requested style at salons following Aniston’s appearance on the sitcom, and hairstylist Chris McMillan is still asked for it to this day.
Gomez debuted a 2020 take on the classic Friends cut during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show on March 8. According to an Instagram post by Gomez’s hairstylist Marissa Marino, the inspiration behind the star’s new look is a hybrid of The Rachel shag and Goldie Hawn’s flippy curtain bangs and voluminous layers in The First Wives Club.
“Selena on @kellyclarksonshow today! It’s a great interview so be sure to watch,” Marino wrote. “Hair inspo was ‘The Rachel’ meets Goldie Hawn in First Wives Club.”

If you’re an avid fan of the 27-year-old singer, you’ll know her Friends fandom goes far beyond her hair. In a recent appearance on the Ellen Show where Jen Aniston guest hosted, the star shared she used to watch the iconic sitcom every Thursday night, and cried when the series ended. “Rachel was my life,” she enthusiastically told the audience.
This new look for Gomez comes just weeks after the Lose You To Love Me singer opted for a ’70s-inspired shag bang, so we’re assuming she’s all about period-specific styles right now – but all with a decidedly 2020 twist.
