Even25 years afterFriends,Jennifer Aniston, 50, still gets the Rachel Green hair comparisons. And while the actress might not view herself as the “hair icon” she’s become to pop culture, she is opening up about her famous mane once again in honor ofInStylemagazine’s October beauty issue.
“I’m not gonna lie — I don’t want gray hair,” she says in theOctober cover story ofInStyle. In keeping that promise to herself, Aniston says she plans on visiting her colorist monthly until the “bitter end.”

In recreating the beauty looks of five icons, Aniston reminisces on her own hair struggles as a kid, before she sported one of the most iconic hairstyles of all time, “The Rachel” onFriends.
“When I was younger, I was in hell,” she says describing her adolescent curly hair. “I tried every product known to man.”
The actress revealed one of the many jobs she had as a kid before her acting career took off, was actually cutting hair. “I cut hair for 10 bucks a head in junior high. I could probably cut your hair,” Aniston tellsInStyle.
She also admits to practicing her hair cutting skills on father, actor John Aniston.
“I cut my dad’s hair, and he was on a soap opera [Days of Our Lives],” she explains. “But then he admitted to me 15 years ago that he would go in and have the hairdresser on set clean it up.”
Aniston also opened up about her skincare obsession, her mother’s advice to start moisturizing at 15-years-old and her biggest beauty regret: not using sunscreen at a young age. She also gave a shout out to her friend, makeup artist Jillian Dempsey, and the artist’s 24-karat-gold sculpting bar. “It feels so damn good to put oil on your face and just roll,” Aniston adds.
