Even celebrities aren't immune to the hair-changing impulse each new season brings. This Summer, stars like Zayn Malik, Cardi B, and Iskra Lawrence are opting for dramatic cuts (bangs galore!), eye-catching colors (electric blue, anyone?), and chic make-unders (Ariana Grande [1], we're looking at you). Read on to see the biggest switcheroos of Summer — so far.
Bebe Rexha
The usually-blonde singer showed off a new gray pixie cut. Whether it's a wig or the real thing, we hope it stays.
Fergie
The singer lightened her ends just in time for midsummer via orange and yellow highlights from George Papanikolas [3].
Rumer Willis
The actress seriously went for it by chopping off her waist-length hair for a textured lob. She also said buh-bye to her curtain bangs by parting them to the side. This edgy look came courtesy of Nine Zero One [4]'s Riawna Capri [5], Amber Maynard Bolt [6], and Anthony Hoiguin [7].
Meghan Trainor
While promoting the release of her new album, Treat Myself, Meghan switched things up with ocean-blue hair courtesy of stylist Dimitri Giannetos [8].
Jessica Chastain
Since she first began acting, Jessica Chastain has had a near-ubiquitous hairstyle: long, dramatic, Veronica Lake-esque curls. This Summer, the Molly's Game star went rogue with a choppy layered bob done by Renato Campora [9]. The dramatic change is capital-B "big" — and we love it.
Jonah Hill
Well, hello! The actor enlisted celebrity colorist George Papanikolas [10] for a bright fuchsia dye job, courtesy of Matrix SoColor Cult [11] dye.
Kim Kardashian
In a paparazzi-style Yeezy photo shoot, Kim Kardashian [12] went monochromatic navy, from her thigh-high boots to her waist-length hair. Stylist Chris Appleton again was the whiz behind this blue-black coloring [13] (does he get any sleep?).
Zayn Malik
Fans of Zayn Malik's relationship with ex Gigi Hadid hoped that the lilac-haired singer's new color was a hint the pair might be back together [14]. This came after the two had the most Instagrammable gardening session ever, and fans speculated that Malik might be handing Hadid a flower. The hand is clearly accepting his olive branch, so . . .
Ariana Grande
The usually ponytail-ed singer let down her hair on the cover of Vogue UK and made us all do a collective double take [15]. We hardly recognized Ariana Grande [16] through her chestnut-blond make-under. As one fan wrote on Twitter [17] of the look (courtesy of longtime stylist Appleton), "Someone revive me. Hand me oxygen. She looks amazing." Agreed.
Cardi B
Cardi B proved that she is not a regular expectant mother, but a cool one, with a hip-length unicorn wig courtesy of stylist Cliff V Mir. The timing of this switcheroo was even more poignant because it aligned with early June, which is Pride Month.
Hailey Baldwin
Hailey Baldwin went futuristic with a Smurf-blue lob wig by NYC-based hairstylist Panos Papandrianos [18].
Iskra Lawrence
The model brought rose gold to the Cannes red carpet, perfectly pairing it with Veronica Lake-esque curls and matte blush lipstick. Iskra Lawrence used the at-home box dye L'Oréal Paris UK Preference Infinia in Rose Gold 8.23 to achieve the color, which she wrote on Instagram [19] would last "for about a month."
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez [20] committed to the theme of her 1960s-inspired "Back to You" music video, from her white tennis shoes to her blunt bob and bangs. As her stylist Danielle Priano [21] told POPSUGAR [22], "Keep in mind that bangs are a look." It totally works in this case.
Mila Kunis
Summer forecast, according to Gomez and Mila Kunis [23]'s heads: bangs are back. The actress enlisted Chad Wood [24] to make the vampy chop, pairing it with a dramatic cat eye and green glitter shadow.
Nina Dobrev
Stylist Chris McMillan created a faux undercut [25] for Nina Dobrev [26] via some strategic pinning of her asymmetrical chop at the CFDA Awards on June 4.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
The actress lightened her usually chestnut-brown for Summer, opting for a platinum shade with edgy contrasting roots.
Rita Wilson
The actress proudly let her roots show in a recent Instagram post she captioned, "Shades of gray."
Olivia Holt
Much like Iskra Lawrence did, Olivia Holt opted to temporarily tint her hair with a $12 Target dye [27]. Other famous fans of the Kristin Ess Rose Gold Temporary Tint [28] include Lucy Hale [29].
