So without further ado, here are the best celebrity hair transformations of 2018, as they happen…


ARIANA GRANDE

Ariana has posted a photo of her sporting a short new lob!  The 25-year-old, who recently broke up with fiancé Pete Davidson, has been rocking a high ponytail for years so sent fans into a frenzy with the dramatic new look. We love it, Ari!

ELIZABETH OLSEN

Elizabeth Olsen has had a complete hair overhaul! The Marvel actress had a fringe chopped while also lightening up her balayaged brunette locks. And is it just us, or do those loose blonde waves make Elizabeth look more like her sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley than ever?!

CHRISSY TEIGEN

Chrissy Teigen is always switching things up, with her latest ‘do of choice being the ever-popular lob in a deep brunette hue.  Looks like the lob is going nowhere!

SOFIA RICHIE

Sofia has gone back to blonde! The 20-year-old has been brunette for about a year now (and constantly compared to Kourtney Kardashian within that time) but she hasn’t jumped right back to her original bright blonde shade just yet. Instead, the model bid farewell to her brunette locks with a new honey blonde hue. We’re loving the lightened locks, Sofia!

KRISTEN STEWART

Kristen Stewart has chopped her locks and bleached them blonde again! The actress stepped out at the Toronto Film Festival sporting an icy blonde pixie cut which is giving us MAJOR spring #hairspo. 

CARA DELEVINGNE

Buh-bye platinum! Cara stepped out rocking a new golden hue, which is much closer to her natural shade of blonde. We also love her choppy pixie cut.

ELLE FANNING

Elle Fanning has swapped her golden blonde locks for a pretty in pink look that we are 100 percent on board with. What could look sweeter than this soft pink hue? The actress captioned the photo “Princess Bubblegum”, which can only mean one of two things: The Adventure Time character was her latest hair inspo, or we’re about to get an Adventure Time real life movie? Time will tell.

HALSEY

The 23-year-old singer just debuted her edgey new pixie cut on her Instagram account with photos from her Billboard 100 Fest performance. The new ‘do combines a textured pixie cut on top with a close buzz cut underneath. Halsey is no stranger to a hair transformation, mixing it up on the reg. But we think this one has staying power. 

 

 

 

 

KIM KARDASHIAN

Kimmy K loves to switch up her hair colour! She’s been platinum blonde, blue, pink and now neon green. But the best part? Her neon green hair matches her Lamborghini!  “Had to get a neon green Lambo to match my hair!!!” she joked in her Instagram stories.

EMILY RATAJKOWSKI

Emily has debuted a voluminous bob! The model showed off her new look on Instagram. It hasn’t been confirmed whether the dramatic cut is a wig or not but we’re hoping it’s here to stay – we love the fresh style on Em!

KYLIE JENNER

Kylie Jenner turned 21 over the weekend and celebrated by going back to blonde! Chris Appleton, the hairstylist behind Kimmy K’s pink hue, is responsible for Kylie’s new blonde ‘do. “It’s beautiful golden fun,” he said. “So many people stay away from gold. As a stylist, you’re taught that gold is hit and miss, but it’s really beautiful. It’s any girl’s dream.”

RIHANNA

Queen RiRi just went blonde! The singer has ditched her blunt brunette lob for golden, Rapunzel-style locks. But is it for real, or just a really good lacefront wig? Time will tell.

DEMI LOVATO

While we’re yet to see the full look, Demi gave her followers a sneak peek at her new blonde locks on Instagram. Her long-time colourist Amber Maynard told Allure , “Demi’s had dark hair for a long time — we thought what better way to switch it up than to go lighter and add extensions for length?” According to Amber, the transformation came about as most dramatic new hair looks do, with Demi wanting to make a change. We love it!

DELTA GOODREM

Delta has gone darker for 2018, leaving behind her signature bright blonde. She’s also added a curtain fringe, which is set to be one of the biggest hair trends this year. We love the way it makes her blue eyes pop!

IRINA SHAYK

Irina has had a drastic cut! The 32-year-old supermodel chopped her signature long dark locks into a trendy chin-length bob and fringe. Plus, her new lighter hue is giving us major hair colour inspiration!

KIM KARDASHIAN WEST

Kim Kardashian has rocked nearly ever hair colour under the sun. Last year she experimented with an icy, pale blue but this deep blue shade is new territory for the reality star. At this stage it’s unconfirmed whether the new ‘do is a wig or not but we love it either way!

RITA ORA

Rita Ora is known for her signature blonde locks but the 27-year-old singer has had a complete hair overhaul! She’s followed in Julianne Hough’s footsteps and is now rocking a fiery red and orange hue. We are LOVING IT.

EMILIA CLARKE

Emilia’s chopped her platinum locks into a blunt bob! The actress revealed her sleek new ‘do on Instagram. “In other news, this FABULOUS new bob is the chicest way to style out some burnt-out mother of dragons split ends,” she captioned the photo. Chic indeed, Emilia!

SELENA GOMEZ

Selena’s been snapped with a fringe and chin-grazing bob! At this stage, it’s unclear whether the new ‘do is a wig to test the waters or a complete hair overhaul. But either way, we’re big fans of the bangs!

LARA WORTHINGTON

Iconic blonde Lara Worthington has dyed her hair dark. And we are LOVING the chic new shade on her!

LEIGHTON MEESTER

Leighton has new platinum blonde hair! It was certainly a shock to see the Gossip Girl star without her iconic Blair Waldorf brunette locks, but we’re big fans of the drastic new ‘do.

JESSICA ALBA

Jessica Alba has a chic new haircut! The actress, who gave birth to her third child Hayes on the 31st of December, has revealed that it “feels sooo good to shed the pregnancy hair”. And it looks good too, Jess! 

MANDY MOORE

Mandy Moore has been pretty committed to the dark side since her early popstar days, but now she’s gone back to blonde! The actress revealed that after wrapping her latest season of This Is Us, she wasted no time in switching up her ‘do. We’re loving the that this time around she’s gone for a warm, caramel blonde!

KIM KARDASHIAN WEST

After growing bored of her platinum blonde locks, Kim K has officially gone pink. But don’t think this one’s just a wig – Kim cleared things up on Twitter, saying of her new bubblegum pink hair, “I don’t really do wigs. It’s real.” We never thought we’d see the day!

CHRISSY TEIGEN

After losing some length at the Grammy Awards earlier this year, Chrissy Teigen recently announced to her Snapchat followers that celebrity stylist Michael Silva has cut off even more of her hair! “I got a haircut,” she said. “Thank you Michael Silva. I love it. I am short.” This is the shortest we’ve ever seen Chrissy’s hair and we’re feeling it, girl.
 
 

JULIANNE HOUGH

Julianne Hough is now a redhead! The dancer and actress shared how thrilled she was with her new look on Instagram. “I have never felt more like ME than I do right now!!” she wrote. “I feel more feminine and alive and I love it!”

OLIVIA WILDE

Olivia’s had a fresh cut! The actress has hit the red carpet with a blonder, chin-grazing bob. We think it’s her best look yet!

CHRISSY TEIGEN

If there’s one celeb who continuously nails pregnancy hair, it’s Chrissy. The glowing mama, who is currently pregnant with her second bub, just debuted this shoulder-length bob at the Grammy Awards. We LOVE it.

ZOOEY DESCHANEL

Zooey has said goodbye to her signature long layers and hello to a fresh bob cut. She looks so different!

EMMA ROBERTS

Emma debuted her new micro-fringe at the 2018 Critics Choice Awards and the look has seriously divided fans. Looks like 2018 is shaping up to be the year of the fringe!

EMMA WATSON

Emma updated her hair for the new year by adding a super cute short fringe. We’re also loving her new darker hue!

HAILEY BALDWIN

Model Hailey has gone pink once more, but this time in a more muted pastel hue. Looks like the pastel hair trend is going nowhere anytime soon!
