Real talk: You've read every 'Top Hairstylists To Follow On Instagram' story there is, each one only slightly different than the next and all full of artists you've been double-tapping for years. But social media is a vast sea, and though it can feel like you've seen it all, there's a whole lot of uncharted inspiration out there. You just have to know where to look.

For an instant feed refresh, we tapped the pro that's leading the pack: Jen Atkin, top celeb hairstylist, the force behind Mane Addicts, and creator of cool-girl brand Ouai. Ahead, Atkin shares a list of 29 Instagram accounts that any hair nerd worth their weight in dry shampoo should be following. Spoiler: It's a killer mix of trendsetting colourists, celeb BTS shots, and styles you'll be screen-grabbing to show your stylist.

Here's to new, inspiring images to brighten your morning Insta skim.
