Pamela Anderson’s hairstyle hack involves a thong: ‘Trick of the trade’

Underwear for your hair?

Pamela Anderson proved she still has a trick or two up her sleeve in a new British Vogue video revealing the contents of her Stella McCartney bag ($1,695) — including a skimpy thong she repurposes in a surprising way.

“Don’t know why I have a G-string in my purse,” the “Baywatch” babe, 55, said as she pulled out the pink undies.

“Don’t tell me that you don’t have a scrunchie. This is the trick of the trade. We’re really flashing back to the ’90s,” she explained while styling her hair into her signature updo.

Back in the day, Anderson added, her hairstyles “always had a pair of panties in them.”

Elsewhere in her purse, Anderson carries around a homemade “love potion” perfume made from ylang-ylang and rose petals from her own garden.

She also showed off her Ilia True Skin Serum Concealer ($32), Kindred Black Lip and Cheek Flush ($95), a fan “for hot flashes,” CBD oil for arthritis, amethyst crystals and more.

In honor of her late makeup artist, Alexis Vogel, Anderson also brings a small pot of Vogel’s glitter wherever she goes.

Now that Anderson has revealed the secret key to keeping her tousled updo together, it won’t be long before Gen Z tries to re-create the look on TikTok; Anderson’s platinum blond bangs, smokey eyeshadow and thin eyebrows have become a huge hit with the younger generation online.
