No One Rocked an Edgy Ponytail Quite Like Madonna

The Queen of Pop doesn’t just have a discography filled with classic hits like “Borderline” and “Like A Virgin.” Madonna gave us one of the 1980s most iconic hairstyles: that teased out bleach blonde hair with a carefully chosen headwrap or bow. Never has the ponytail looked so edgy.

Madonna may be famous for a few things (think: inventing the Vogue, her scandalous coffee table book, that weird British accent she briefly adopted), but she’s rarely recognized for making brunette roots look intentional on bleach blonde hair. It’s a feat if you ask us. Even today, the star stretches her salon visits and inspires us to ditch out on the every-six-week rule.
