Jen Aniston Has Given Us 25 Years of Great Hair Looks—These Are Her Best
Let's be honest: If there's one woman who's been blessed with good hair days, it's Jennifer Aniston. From the voluminous, textured waves of her pre-Friends days to "The Rachel" and beyond, Jen An and her iconic sleek strands have been serving up seriously covetable hairstyles for over a quarter of a century now.
While I've already uncovered the secret to how Aniston guarantees a good hair day, every damn day (spoiler—it involves way less time spent under a hair dryer than you might think), I thought it was high time I paid proper homage to Jennifer Aniston's amazing hair with a roundup of her best hairstyles from the past 25 years.

GETTY IMAGESUndoubtedly, the hairstyle that springs to mind for most people first when thinking of Jennifer Aniston has to be this choppy, layered lob.
