SELENA GOMEZ

In the final weeks of 2016 while we’ve all been busy enjoying our festive holidays, our girl Selena has sneakily gone and got the chop… and she looks FRESH! 

To mark the start of a new year, the brunette beauty has traded in those famously dark long tresses of hers for this cute, fresh lob. Thoughts? We totally dig it. 

RIHANNA

Dreaming of a white Christmas? Rihanna certainly is. Caught up in the festive spirit, the singer has shed her long, dark locks for a shorter, brighter ‘do just in time for the holidays. ‘Tis the season, after all…

LUCY HALE

After a brief hiatus as a bombshell blonde, Aria Montgomery ahhh we mean Lucy Hale, went back to her Pretty Little Liars raven coloured locks. It didn’t last long but boy, was it GOOD. 

GIGI HADID

Since announcing she’ll be taking a hiatus from social media, the VS model has ditched her signature blonde locks for a slightly darker, auburn-tinged hue. How long will it last? Only time will tell… 

ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO

Fresh from the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Alessandra Ambrosio has taken the opportunity to update her hairdo. The supermodel debuted a brand new fringe on her Instagram and we love it! Soft, feminine and sexy as hell.

LILY COLLINS

We’ve all contemplated a fringe at some stage, but Lily has gone and done it! The actress has added a fresh, choppy fringe to her dark brunette bob and the result is super cute. Not wanting to hide her signature bold brows, Lily ensured her fringe was effortlessly parted in the middle.

ARIANA GRANDE

Ariana’s signature high pony is now blonde! The pint-sized singer posted a photo to Instagram, telling her followers that while she’ll be rocking the blonde “for now”, the hair change isn’t permanent – it’s just a wig. We’d totally support it if you went for the real thing though, Ariana!

HAILEY BALDWIN

Hailey Baldwin has changed up her ‘do with a fresh bubblegum-pink shade. The model previously dyed her blonde locks with temporary colour (she went grey for Coachella earlier this year), but this is the first major hair change we’ve seen from her. And we likey!

LUCY HALE

Lucy Hale celebrated the series wrap of Pretty Little Liars with a whole new hair colour. After sticking to her naturally dark locks throughout the popular TV show, the actress showed off this grown-out blonde lob and we’re really obsessed.

KYLIE JENNER

Usually quite the trickster with wigs, we think Kylie Jenner might have finally committed to the real deal this time. The Lip Kit queen appears to now be sporting bright red hair, and considering we can see her scalp through her tightly woven braids, we’re calling it.

 

KATE MARA

Kate Mara is the latest celeb to take on the platinum blonde hair trend and it looks AH-MA-ZING. We’re also loving her chic blunt bob that’s come as a result of growing out her pixie cut – short hair lovers, take note.

SHAY MITCHELL

After having a gloriously long mane for years, Shay Mitchell revealed her new – just longer than a lob – ‘do on Instagram. She explained in her caption, “I like to start each week with a fresh perspective…so we decided to do a little chop chop.” SLAY SHAY.

CARA DELEVINGNE

We didn’t think Cara Delevingne could get any better, but she’s gone and proved us all wrong by chopping her long, golden locks to her shoulders. Her edgy lob is total #hairspiration.

BELLA HADID

Woah, Bella! No longer the darker haired Hadid, Gigi’s younger sibling has officially joined the blonde bandwagon, bleaching her locks a combo of blonde and pastel pink. Bella + Gigi = #twinning.

KENDALL JENNER

ATTENTION: THIS IS NOT A DRILL. For someone who never seems to change her ‘do, this is biiig news. Following in the footsteps of her older sister Khloe, KJ’s gone “just hits the shoulder short”. Lovin’ it, feelin’ it, officially copying it. 

SELENA GOMEZ

We’ve learnt our lesson from past experiences when it comes to celebs spontaneously rockin’ a fringe, so when Selena stepped out with this surprising new ‘do, we were skeptical at first to throw our hands up in the air. But then our prayers were answered and stylist Marissa Marino confirmed this is the real deal. Can we get a Hallelujah – GOMEZ GOT BANGS. 

CHRISTINA AGUILERA

Xtina → Jessica Rabbit and we couldn’t be happier about it. Christina, if you’re reading this, don’t ever change, okay?

EMMA STONE

After a recent stint as a brunette and an even shorter did-that-even-happen-or-am-I-just-going-crazy one as a platinum blonde, screen-siren red Emma is BACK. Support. 

CHRISSY TEIGEN

Before she became a first time mumma, Chrissy got down to business, requesting the “Khloe-rosie, side of chrissy khlosey” from celebrity hairstylist Jen Atkin.
