Stray Kids delivered an immaculate performance at The Facts Music Awards (TMA) 2023, with Hyunjin showing up in a funky ponytail for the TOPLINE and S-CLASS performance. While he kept his hairstyle casual and effortless for the red-carpet appearance, the K-pop idol went the opposite route on stage.

The Stray Kids member rocked an edgy look for their TMA 2023 performance, pairing his baggy pants with a well-fitted t-shirt and layering a white shirt and tie underneath for a funky fit. While his outfit was noteworthy, his hairstyle stole the spotlight as the singer sported a ponytail wrapped in a white string.

Netizens loved the funky hairstyle, as many noted that it is bound to become an iconic hairdo that will signify K-pop from here on. K-pop idols have introduced some of the best hair and makeup looks to the beauty industry, with Hyunjin having single-handedly started hair trends in South Korea.

While the singer does experiment with hair colors, he goes big on haircuts, having rocked an edgy wolf cut for quite some time. Although he kept his hair a natural black at TMA 2023, his hairdo for the red-carpet appearance and the stage performance made a statement.


Hyunjin's hairstyle for Stray Kids' TMA 2023 performance stole STAYs' hearts

Hyunjin sported an effortless hairstyle for Stray Kids' red-carpet appearance, simply parting his long hair down the side and incorporating a hint of waves into the front sections of his hair for some added texture. The hairdo was casual and lived-in, perfectly pairing with his black suit with silver stripes.

For the stage performance, he tied up all his hair at the back, securing the ponytail with a white string for a funky look.

He has previously sported ponytails for performances, which helps keep his long hair neatly tucked away from his face while he flaunts his amazing dance moves. However, securing the ponytail with a string was a first for the Stray Kids member, helping reveal the edgy fade at the back of his head.

Also, Hyunjin left out some face-framing bangs that he styled to curl away from his face. The bangs had a 'curtain bangs' effect, helping frame his face beautifully while highlighting his facial features. As most of his hair was tied back, the hairstyle required next to no heat styling, making it easy to transition his red-carpet look into the funky hairdo for the stage performance.

STAYs (Stray Kids' fandom name) rejoiced as they noted that the singer had his hair up in a ponytail yet again, with several of them exclaiming that his hairstyle looked extremely "cute." Some even stated that his hairdo looked "cool," with fans noting that they needed to take a moment to "talk about Hyunjin's hair."


Since his hairstyle was the star of the show, Hyunjin kept his makeup subtle with a soft dewy base and a natural pink lip shade. Also, he incorporated a winged liner into his eye makeup look, using a light brown eyeshadow around his eyes to add some depth to them.
