The Best Celebrity Hair Transformations Of 2017

Although Kendall Jenner’s hair has been getting steadily shorter, she wowed crowds at the Valerian premiere with a fresh, bouncy bob. 

Giving Bella Hadid’s new bob (see next slide), a run for its money, Kendall Jenner’s new look blends classic Hollywood polish with of-the-moment edge. Unsurprisingly, celeb stylist Jen Atkin is responsible for the cut.

Bella Hadid is constantly changing her hair, thanks to myriad cuts, a back-and-forth fringe and clever work with hair extensions. But she’s never gone quite this short before…

The model was spotted in NYC with a fresh new cut – complete with bouncy layers, new golden highlights and a considerable amount chopped off.

A tousled lob has become Victoria Beckham’s signature in recent months, but new Instagram Stories reveal the fashion designer has gone back to the cut that defined her post-Spice Girl years – the iconic pob.

The asymmetrical new haircut, which is slightly longer at the front than back, is the work of celebrity stylist Luke Hersheson, who’s calling it the ‘new bob’ on his Instagram. Beckham’s 2017 version looks choppier and more layered than her original pob, which gives it more volume and a contemporary edge. Love.

Kate’s signature brunette locks have been luscious and long for a while now.

The Duchess of Cambridge debuted a chic, new ‘lob’ – 2017’s coolest hairstyle – while watching the tennis at Wimbledon.

Karlie had ombre highlights for the past year.

Lady Gaga took to Instagram to share her new ombré peach hue hairstyle. She shared the post alongside an positive message for fans: “It is not how many followers you have, how skinny or beautiful by other peoples standards that matters,” she wrote on Instagram. “Truly it’s the best parts of you on the inside that you choose generously to share with your sister or brother that makes you beautiful. That’s what counts. That is your legacy. That is how you leave your mark. Transferring your positive energy to those around you, and watching it multiply.”

Emma’s signature look is usually her stunning bright orange locks, paired with bronze colours to complement her natural hair and skin tone.

Olivia Palermo is as known for her signature long locks as she is her second-to-none street style. Which is why her new look has come as something of a shock…

The one-time Hills star has chopped off her lengths for a bouncy lob with blonde highlights. The colour is the work of New York’s Abby Haliti; the cut, celebrity hair stylist Andre J. Davis, who posted the above picture on Instagram.

Sarah Michelle Gellar has been all about the dark blonde look for years now, but with the northern hemisphere summer just around the corner, she’s opted for a change.

SMG took to her Instagram to show off her fresh new dye job – a summery platinum shade that lifts her entire look. 

The beauty guru and author took this snap right before walking into the hair dresser…

And she came out with darker locks! Zo took to Instagram to share the transformation, noting that she had originally walked into the hairdresser to get a blunt bob but was talked out of it because “hormonal hair decisions are bad hair decisions.”

Salma Hayek has always rocked her long black locks, which is why her Cannes transformation is so unexpected…

Is it a wig or isn’t it? Salma Hayek has caused a stir on the Cannes red carpet with a shock of candy pink hair. 

The model just drastically changed her luscious long locks. 

Jourdan revealed a new pixie cut via Instagram this morning – and we love the look!

It’s official: Olivia Wilde is channelling her inner Kylie Jenner and changing up her hair look with rapid-fire style. Not long after she swapped her traditional bronde hair for a peroxide blonde bob, she’s switched things up again with an equally dramatic new look…

Wilde posted the above selfie on her Instagram today, with the caption, “Dark times call for dark hair.” Indeed.

The Fifty Shades of Grey actress stepped out with her usual layered bangs just a few days ago for Gucci’s garden party. 

She was spotted again today on the streets of New York, sporting new chic bangs.

Ever since her Dawson’s Creek days, Katie Holmes has stuck to her signature look: long, brunette locks.

But at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival Chanel Artists Dinner last night, Holmes debuted a shoulder-skimming lob. Styled into tousled waves with loads of texture, the new cut was sexy and sophisticated.

Selena’s long brown locks have been the envy of many, but change is as good as a holiday…

She debuted her shortest bob yet, posting this series of photos to her Instagram.

Now she’s the latest celebrity to rock the pixie cut, but this time it’s with a twist – it’s pink!

Katy Perry surprised everyone when she went for a short undercut hairstyle similar to Scarlett Johansson’s, but she’s gone and changed it up AGAIN…

She recently cut her hair even shorter, and has gone all platinum blonde. What will she do next?

The Big Little Lies star is synonymous with peroxide blonde braids, although she’s bemoaned how high maintenance they are in multiple interviews. Which could be the motive behind her latest move…

The star has followed in Kristen Stewart, Katy Perry and Scarlett Johansson’s lead and chopped the lot off, revealing a platinum blonde buzz cut.

Chris Hemsworth’s wife, actress Elsa Pataky, has experimented with long and short lengths throughout her career, but usually favours a shoulder-length cut.

Brunette beauty Megan Gale knows that once you find a look that works for you, stick with it. But that doesn’t mean you can’t still have a little fun with your look…

The star took to Instagram to show off her rockstar new look. Giving her classic lob a 2017 update with shaggy, textured layers, a freshen-up of her rich brunette colour and loads of volume. “4 months since I’ve had some hair love 🙈  A much needed cut & colour with @travisbalckehair & @laboutiquehair has got me feelin’ like a new woman 💥”.

Chrissy Teigen’s typical ombre locks have been swapped for a racy redheaded look…

Her hairstylist Jen Atkin posted the above photo on her Instagram. It’s hard to tell whether the warm red tinge is the work of mood lighting, a nifty filter or a gorgeous dye job, but either way, we’re loving it. 

The reality TV star has traded in her iconic long locks…

… for the look of the moment, the lob. Slicked back into a wet-look style for the Fashion Los Angeles Awards, Kim’s new cut is her second in as many weeks: only a few days ago, she chopped off her long locks to shoulder-length, and now she’s gone one step further.

Lady Gaga loves a hair transformation and isn’t afraid of making a bold statement with her locks, but to celebrate her 31st birthday the star decided to keep things much more natural…

Taking to Instagram to thank fans for all the birthday love, Gaga, a natural brunette, also debuted her new rich, chocolate brown locks.

Gigi usually plays it safe with her hair – you’ll rarely see her without long, loose waves – so when she mixes it up, the world takes notice…

She posted her brand new ‘do on Instagram, with the simple caption, ‘Sundays.’ Because on Sundays, we all curl our hair into a mass of ringlets and pile it on top of our heads with a white ribbon. The throwback style oozes ’80s cool and is a more playful look than we’re used to seeing on Gigi.

Aussie beauty Jesinta Campbell has ditched her long layers and is mixing things up for the new season…

The star debuted a new fringe on the red carpet, the perfect look for the cooler season.

Despite her name, Pink has been rocking her hair a more natural dark blonde since welcoming her son, Jameson Moon Hart.

Girls star Allison Williams has been brunette as long as we’ve known her and her on-screen alter-ego Marnie, but now that the show is over she felt like it was time for a drastic change….

Debuting a platinum blonde ‘do on the cover of Allure magazine, the actress then took to Instagram to share another snap of the look in real life. “Here it is IRL. Still getting used to it, but I dig it. Thank you @auracolorist and@rebekahforecast for helping me say goodbye to Marnie — and to @allure for the nudge! 💕”.

Balayage queen Olivia Wilde isn’t one to switch up her style on the regular and is widely recognised for her signature long brunette locks.

So the star surprised us all when she pulled a Katy Perry (see next slide) and debuted a sharp, short – and peroxide blonde – bob. Looks like she’s taken a leaf out of friend Kate Mara’s book.

Katy Perry might have dabbled with platinum blonde, lavender, pink, blue and even orange in the past but she’s been rocking the dark locks for some time now. This week however she’s decided to mix things up again…

Katy debuted a much lighter – much shorter – new look at an art show this week. The star is rocking a platinum blonde at the roots with strawberry blonde ends, and took inches off her long locks into a lob.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez’s long hair, pulled back into a low ponytail at the 2016 AMAs, has been getting steadily shorter. Now, it’s gone from this…

Selena Gomez

A brunette since the ’90s, Dannii Minogue has dramatically changed her look to one that more closely resembles her sister, Kylie…

Her fresh new look is a creamy blonde balayage with darker roots (all the more forgiving on Dannii’s natural colour).
