Gigi Hadid’s hair transformation from her signature shade of blonde to a redhead last year kicked off a full-blown beauty trend: Sophie Turner, too, ditched blonde for red, then Hailey Baldwin went brunette, before Billie Eilish changed her platinum hair to brown. ‘Is blonde now cheugy?’ The internet wondered.
But before you start hoarding those supermarket iced chocolate box dyes, let it be known that this week, Hadid opted to go back to her light locks. It’s giving Sarah Jessica Parker’s post-Big wedding brunette phase, before she realised blonde was the real her.
On the Chanel runway in Paris, the supermodel was pictured with her hair pulled back, showing no red and a darker shade of blonde—perhaps mid-way through the bleaching process. She was later photographed leaving the show wearing a casual-chic outfit made up of wide-legged trousers and a grey long-sleeve polo shirt with a navy collar, showing off her lightened shade in more detail:
But instead of leaving her locks at their usual beach blonde shade, Hadid went one step further, going completely platinum blonde in a look that was debuted on Instagram by stylist Elizabeth Sulcer overnight.
In the images, Hadid’s long wavy hair is lighter than it’s been in years:
Sulcer leaned into the Barbie vibes by dressing Hadid in a baby pink two-piece suit and adding a touch of pink to her pout.
Hadid hasn’t yet shared her new look to her own ‘gram, but it’s certain when she does the pics will instantly go viral. Remember when Billie Eilish’s blonde hair debut pretty much broke Instagram? We love a good hair transformation—especially one that comes months after a messy breakup. We see you, Gigi (and we j’adore).
