Barbra Streisand is still that girl. The 84-year-old EGOT winner posted a throwback photo to social media and reminded fans that she hasn't aged a day.
The Funny Girl actress posted a photo from the '70s where she wore a black turtleneck and wore her signature hair in long, loose waves. The decade marked a golden era for Barbra as she transitioned from Broadway to contemporary pop and film.
"A shot from the 1970s," Barbra wrote to Instagram. "This is how women are wearing their hair now; I also see many women wearing wigs that look like this today."

The throwback photo highlighting her iconic hair comes just a few days after Jennifer Lawrence's haircare brand launch, joining a slew of celebrities in the space.
Barbra Streisand's looks over the years
In 1962, Barbra made her Broadway debut as Miss Marmelstein in a production of I Can Get It for You Wholesale. She wore her hair in both a short, brown bob or a voluminous bouffant. The Broadway production cast a then 19-year-old Barbra in her first pivotal role opposite none other than Elliott Gould, who played Harry Bogen.
The two went on to date and then secretly tied the knot in September 1963 and welcomed a son in 1966 named Jason. In 1969, the couple separated, and they were divorced two years later.
