For an office full of beauty obsessives, a dramatic hair transformation is almost as exciting as cake in the kitchen.
bh HQ loves nothing more than a dramatic long-to-pixie chop, blonde to brunette colour change, or even better yet, when a celebrity discovers a fringe totally suits them.
2020 is already off to a flying start, with mullets appearing as the cut of choice among the celebrity crowd.
Don’t believe us? Check out the before and afters below…

Bella Hadid
You know all the memes telling you not to cut yourself a fringe in isolation no matter how bored you are? Apparently Bella Hadid didn’t see them. The good news? She’s 1000 per cent pulling it off, and looks like the high school heroine from your fave 90s teen movie.
Hilary Duff
Hilary traded her signature blonde for a vibrant bright blue hue, and we are into it. As for the colourist behind the in-quarantine colour? Her husband, Matthew Koma, who revealed his hidden talent during an Instagram Live, telling Hilary’s followers “I also dyed her hair, I do a lot of stuff around the house.” Honestly, the hubby-hair colourist combo is the dream – well played, Hils.
Selena Gomez
Selena has traded in her sleek dark ‘do for the cut of the season: the shag. With loads of texture, a choppy fringe and babylights framing her face, it’s less ‘polished’ and more ‘model off duty’.
Olivia Colman
Olivia Colman debuted her new platinum pixie on the Oscars red carpet, where we immediately awarded it ‘best blonde moment’ for the year. Question is, will she keep it?
Miley Cyrus
Following in the footsteps of her country crooner father, Billy Ray, Miley debuted her new mullet on Instagram early this year with the caption ‘New hair. New year. NEW MUSIC.’ Unsure if anything will ever beat ‘Slide Away’ OR this lewk, but we’ll wait and see what else 2020 has in store for Ms Cyrus.
Barbie Ferreira
We just need one more and it’s officially a trend… Barbie Ferreira (from HBOs Euphoria) has also opted for a ‘business at the front, party at the back’ style to set the tone for the new year. Yee-ha.
Jada Pinkett-Smith
It can be hard to keep up with the fresh ‘dos of the Smith family, but Jada’s latest braid-to-pixie makeover certainly stopped us mid-scroll. Proof that curls can go the crop if you were unsure, too.
I’m considering a small hair transformation. My hair is currently about bra strap length. It feels too long and unruly. I’m considering having a it cut into a lob. Just below my shoulders. The only reason I haven’t done it yet is because being summer I tend to tie it up out of the way.
Mullets need to be banned. Jada: omg! Just stunning
Olivia Colman is my favourite, it suits her skintone better I think.
Love that Jada is embracing her natural curls!
Really like Jada Pinkett Smith her hair is such a dramatic change. Very nice.
Definitely some styles I’m not so keen on here! Let’s hope 2020 improves!
Yes, this is a great colour on her!
Yeh I agree, she looks great blonde
Oh god, I hope this doesn't mean rat tails are gonna make a comeback too.
A definite no to the mullets!
Selena Gomez go the curls! Barbie who I don't know much about looks gorgeous before and after hair transformation.
Hmm I think Selena had her hair done like that to shoot a music video this past week. Probably not keeping the style.
Love Selena’s hair
I'm always dreaming of a hair transformation. Just something better than what I've got will do – a fresh change would be really good!
I want to do something new with my hair but I just don’t know what
Selena looks great!
No set plans for me at all. Im busy with my Carer duties so i need simple and no fuss looks but I would love to change my colour and go lighter
I agree too even though apparently she is naturally brunette
Oh I really -really-really – dislike the mullet look , lets hope that fad is gone quickly!
I am considering a grey colour, maybe layered ombre, not too sure yet. I imagine it will be pretty time consuming to maintain
Agree. Flattering for her face shape
Some dramatic changes, not sure about the mullet…
The mullet should never come back
Lots of these hairstyle are very different! I wouldn’t personally go for any of these anytime soon.
My hair is the shortest it’s ever been in for over 30 years. Showing my age hehe…I’m trending with the short bob atm. Miley pulls everything off!!
Grey? like almost white?
I love Jada's hair.
I like Selena's new look as well as Olivia's lighter shade.
Jade looks great but not loving the others.
I had no idea Jada had curly hair!
Selena looks so much better with her new hair style.
Noooooooooooooo to the mullets!
I've had a fair chop recently (nothing too drastic, but it's shorter than I'm used to in terms of my long hair) and I'm enjoying it so far.
A no to the mullet but I don't mind Selena's new look.
My favourites are the Selena Gomez more casual look and Olivia Colman's lighter shade. It really suits her.
Olivia looks amazing blonde!
Say no to mullets!!!
I have done so many things to my hair it's crazy, waist length or even shaved head. Hair is so much fun!
Wow i didn't even recognize Selena. She looks great. Really wish I was brave enough to do a big change.
I think the mulletts will go in and out quicker than they did the first time!
Some lovely hairstyles. I just love looking at before and after pics. No hair inspiration for me from these pics though.
Selena is my favourite hair transformation, Barbie is next on my list.
I love Selena's hair makeover for 2020.
Hope so!!!
I like Olivia's.
Omggg I love the hairstyles of Selena Gomez and Jade Pinkett Smith!! They look so effortless yet stunning, Jade Pinkett Smith especially looks so beautiful
Hilary Duff's hair makeover is fun but what does Ethan Craft think?
I love Selena's shaggy do – just gorgeous on her.
Good time to experiment. The blue hue is amazing.
Not blue. Look, it looks awesome when just done…then it starts to fade and turns pale green. So no. If you are blonde, just tone it a bit with potent toning blue/purple products. Not dye
Selena Gomez looks so different, she looks younger!
Wow Hilary duff! Didn’t recognise her!
I like Selena’s hair. It’s cute and it really suits her. It’s a definite NO for the mullet from me. YUCK! Sadly I don’t think any of us will be rushing out to change our hairstyle anytime soon.
