While Collins has had quite a few misses when it comes to on-air outfits, fans have continued to commend what great hair she has across various social media platforms and forums. As you seek out new hairdos for the spring, you won't have to worry about finding inspiration — Collins already has enough of that to share.

Award season is a fun time for celebrities as they try out different hairstyles, makeup looks, and outfits beyond their usual style. For Kaitlan Collins, she rocked loose waves for the 2026 Grammys, and fans loved every minute of it. Commentary on Collins' beauty has also come from her time on television. "Her hair is ALWAYS on point," one Reddit user commented, referring to the journalist's consistently stunning looks. With a smooth middle part and softly combed curls, this hairstyle was perfect for the occasion.

The '60s simple, curled hairstyle known as "the flip" has gone beyond its '90s reintroduction to the beauty industry to what we see today. The trend has come back around full circle for today's celebrities like Kaitlan Collins, who want to subtly change their hair but still look elevated. Not only is this still easy to execute with a flat iron at home, but it can be maintained through pin curls or a round brush. This is also a low-maintenance haircut that is super easy to style, especially for someone who gets a butterfly cut done with heavy layers.

Red carpet looks are Kaitlan Collins' specialty, and especially the ones that showcase a unique hairstyle. For the 2023 Mark Twain Prize for American Humor award ceremony, Collins could be seen wearing a slicked-back ponytail with a medium pompadour that looked perfectly crafted. The popular hairstyle, which was rocked by musicians and those of royal descent, has made its way back around through the lens of the CNN correspondent. Though people don't wear the style as much as they used to, it's still just as timeless as ever. This is a great hairdo for someone looking to hone a "rocker chick" type of look, or to heighten any ponytail style they may have if they don't want a bang.

While CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins has had quite the transformation, this one truly takes the cake. As a switch-up to her typical television-friendly hairstyles, Kaitlan Collins' hairstyling results were revealed by stylist Kendra Lauren on Instagram. "Always a pleasure to work with this bombshell[, ...] your hair is the best," the caption read. While some liked the post, others were still stunned to see her channel the look so well. One user even commented about how her husband believed that Collins had the hair of a goddess. This look is great for someone looking for an effortless, blowout look that can be easily managed with rollers.

Kaitlan Collins reminded everyone of their love for Hollywood waves during her appearance at the 2024 Kennedy Center Honors. Collins wore a looser version of the age-old style, but she managed to pull it off in a stunning way. Her faint side part is what helps to elevate the style by adding a unique touch to a 'do that's typically worn more voluminously. For those looking to try this hairstyle themselves, it can be executed best with a curling wand and hairspray with a strong hold.

Though Kaitlan Collins typically opts for a wavier or loose curl, you may catch her with a lightly placed curl that looks combed together every now and then. In her CNN headshot from almost a decade ago, Collins can be seen wearing a red dress with a V-neckline and hair that's curled in a way that looks like stacked layers with a side part.

This beautifully layered style is refined and professional for an everyday look, while still being not too far off from her usual go-to looks. This 'do can be achieved with sock curls, a fine-tooth comb, and medium-hold hairspray for a sleeker version.
