The main thing is that the hair lies …
A new haircut or color is often a sign of change. This year, some stars also seemed to want to try something new in their lives – and have changed their look. The long mane is suddenly short, the man’s haircut is platinum blond and his otherwise curly hair is suddenly straight.
In recent months, numerous celebrities have put themselves in the hands of their stylists and have them treated with paint brushes and scissors.
▶︎ Here are the most beautiful and blatant changes
Kim Kardashian
The 42-year-old reality TV beauty and ex-wife of Kanye West (44) used her visit to the New York “Met Gala” in May 2022 to present herself in a completely new look.
Kim Kardashian had her black waves turned into a platinum blonde mane! In addition, she lost eight kilograms within three weeks so that she could fit into an original dress by film icon Marilyn Monroe († 36).
Comedian Pete Davidson (29) also liked the blonde hairstyle, with whom Kim flirted through the summer until it was all over after nine months.
Lo and behold: Over Christmas, Kim transformed herself again – into her old self! The billionaire wears long and black again. New year, new hairstyle, new plans…
Ariana Grande
The 29-year-old US singer has been true to her style for years. Fans love her dark Bambi eyes and long, almost black hair.
With a cheeky comment, the all-rounder showed up blonde for the first time on Instagram in October. Instead of mentioning her visit to the hairdresser, Ariana only pointed out her new pearl earrings in the description of the photo. Fans freaked out under the photo, celebrating her new look. More than 6.7 million fans clicked “Like”.
Robert Downey Jr.
“Ironman” star Robert Downey Jr. (57) also has to go to the hairdresser from time to time and is known for his accurate dark haircut – longer at the top, short on the sides.
But the Hollywood star doesn’t look like that anymore! Robert Downey Jr. will be bald in his new role on The Sympathizer. Since he doesn’t feel like long styling sessions on set, where his hair is hidden under a bald wig, he decided on the radical cut.
Especially cute: Robert Downey Jr. treated his sons Exton and Avri to the shaving fun! At the end of October, around Halloween time, he gave them an electric razor and the boys were allowed to make Papa go bald. Cool dad!
Patrick Dempsey
As McDreamy, the doctor from the US series “Grey’s Anatomy”, he conquered the hearts of the fans. Over the years, the slightly gray hair has made Patrick Dempsey (56) more and more interesting – he joined the series of hot gray haired, à la George Clooney (61).
But for the film role of the racing driver Piero Taruffi († 81), the hairstyle of the well-known TV doctor had to be completely changed.
Dempsey dyed her hair bleach blonde and captioned it, “You either love it or hate it.”
Lucky for all fans: The film is now finished and the blond has grown out. Patrick Dempsey used clippers to trim away the last strands of blonde hair himself. In November at a premiere there was no more blonde to be seen and – surprise: no gray either!
Dempsey looked like he’d fallen into a fountain of youth at the premiere of Netflix hit Disenchantment. Smooth skin, brown hair, like he was in his thirties. What a new hairstyle can do…
Dixie D’Amelio
The 21-year-old has had an incredible TikTok career in recent years. With her dance clips, she brought 55 million followers to her account on the video platform. In addition, Dixie acts and sings her sweet way into the hearts of millions of fans.
In September, Dixie D’Amelio then surprised her fans with a new hairstyle at the “Harper’s Bazaar Global Icons Party”. The singer sported a stylish pixie cut that looks like she grew up overnight. Looks sensational!
KJ Apa
Due to the role of Archie Andrews in the comic adaptation, the “Riverdale” hottie KJ Apa (25) wore his red hair like a trademark. The New Zealander is actually brown-haired.
And this is exactly the look he showed his more than 18 million Instagram fans in the summer: KJ Apa shared a photo with a three-day beard and brown short hair styling and suddenly looked much more grown-up. But fans really wanted his red hair and tousled out-of-bed style back!
Luckily, in November, KJ’s hair was long again and he went to the hairdresser. Now his fans can breathe a sigh of relief, his trademark look is back and it suits him perfectly.
