New year, new hair.

Leaving the salon with a fresh new hairstyle, things feel... different. The air tastes a tad sweeter and our gait is a little freer. It is as though we are on the precipice of something new. With this in mind, it&rsquo;s unsurprising that some celebs have already undergone hair transformations this year. After all, it&rsquo;s not just a new &lsquo;do, it&rsquo;s a new lease on life. 
Last year, we saw natural-looking shades such as "expensive brunette" on celebrities like <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/hailey-bieber-and-the-new-star-in-line" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hailey Bieber</a> and oyster grey on style icon Julia Fox. That, of course, isn&rsquo;t to say that 2022 wasn&rsquo;t experimental. There were bold pixie cuts, pinched bobs, and, TikTok&rsquo;s favorite, the <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/beauty/wolf-cut-hair-mullet-tiktok-trend-gen-z" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wolf cut</a>&mdash;a shag-mullet combination.
From shaved heads to daring reds, L&rsquo;OFFICIEL rounds up 2023&rsquo;s best hair celebrity transformations to date.&nbsp;

Emily Ratajkowski

<a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/emily-ratajkowski-bikini-pictures">Emily Ratajkowski</a> showed off her new hairdo on Instagram, boasting new red tresses. "Gone red," she captioned the Instagram post. The model and book author is known for dark brown strands but is proving that a signature look can be switched up.

Jessica Chastain

Molly&rsquo;s Game actress Jessica Chastain ditched her signature red tresses for platinum blonde at the 2023 Met Gala. Fitting with the event&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/fendi-karl-lagerfeld-exhibition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karl Lagerfeld</a> theme, Chastain wore her hair sleek, straight down her back&mdash; a subtle homage to the late designer&rsquo;s famous &lsquo;do. Though, the change isn&rsquo;t permanent&mdash;only a wig. The actress told <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thecut/">The Cut</a>, "It's not forever&hellip; It's for Karl."

Florence Pugh

<a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/beauty/florence-pugh-valentino-beauty-campagna-testimonial" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florence Pugh</a> donned a striking buzz cut at the <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/florence-pugh-met-gala-2023-arrival-shaved-head" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2023 Met Gala</a>. The look is quite the contrast from the honey blonde locks sported by the Don't Worry Darling actress in her recent Valentino campaign. Pugh&rsquo;s newfound, edgier hairstyle was undoubtedly the biggest transformation of the evening.

From her OG brunette waves to a platinum blonde mullet, <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/music/miley-cyrus-says-her-marriage-to-liam-hemsworth-was-bad" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miley Cyrus</a> always keeps us guessing. Her most recent look, which she debuted at The Daily Front Row&rsquo;s Fashion Los Angeles Awards, was as unexpected as ever. Parted down the middle, one side of her hair is brunette with blonde underneath, while the other side features those two hues in reverse.

Megan Fox

Megan Fox and Billie Eilish.

For the Vanity Fair Oscars Party, actress <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/megan-fox-style-evolution" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Megan Fox</a> changed up her iconic black locks to an auburn red. An after-party is the perfect place to experiment with new looks, and Fox did just that.&nbsp;&nbsp;

At the 25th Annual Costume Designers Guild Awards, the actress, model, and activist Hunter Schafer debuted her new red hair. The Euphoria&nbsp;star usually rocks a blonde bob, but she isn't afraid to experiment with her look.&nbsp;

Influencer and model Dixie D'Amelio took to Instagram to show off her new platinum blonde pixie cut. The star originally debuted her shorter hair in September 2022, and she has continued to rock an air of confidence. D'Amelio made an appearance at the Fall/Winter 2023 Saint Laurent show with her new look.&nbsp;

The celebrity It girl was spotted at Diesel's Fall/Winter 2023 show during Milan Fashion Week rocking vibrant red hair. She posted several photos on her Instagram of her new do and proudly announced that she "did it [herself]." The model often boasts about her do-it-yourself attitude when it comes to fashion and beauty.&nbsp;

Shania Twain took to Instagram yesterday with a new photo of herself with platinum blonde hair. She was letting her supporters know that her new album Queen of Me is "almost out" and that "it's time to celebrate" with her fans. This is a big change for the Canadian singer-songwriter from her usual brunette locks, but, hey, it's the year to try new things. &nbsp;

Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson attend the game between the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers at Madison Square Garden on January 31, 2023.

Pete Davidson shocked us all with his new hair (or should we say lack thereof) when he sat front row at the New York Knicks game on January 31. He sat next to American comedian Jon Stewart and cheered on his favorite team.&nbsp;

Hailey Bieber has officially deemed 2023 as the year of the bob. The model took to Instagram and TikTok to show off her fresh new haircut, where she captioned her videos, "Oops." Guess the salons are about to receive a ton of requests for the big chop.&nbsp;

Shawn Mendes

Singer <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/shawn-mendes-tommy-hilfiger-collaboration-collection-photo-look" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shawn Mendes</a> swapped his signature curly locks for a modern buzz cut. Some fans are mourning the loss. Others think this aesthetic departure is a refreshing change. Regardless, the cut was most definitely a transformation.

Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian ushered in the new year with a bright red bob. This fiery hue turns up the heat on last year&rsquo;s &lsquo;it&rsquo; colour, copper red, which was popularized by her supermodel sister Kendall Jenner and The White Lotus star Sydney Sweeney.&nbsp;
Having undergone a goth girlfriend (now wife) style rebrand, Kardashian&rsquo;s departure from her signature dark tresses may come as a shock. However, it seems we should have suspected this all along. The bright red hue is a favorite of her daughter Penelope Disick, who debuted the look back in 2021 for the Barker family&rsquo;s holiday card.

Brad Pitt

Brad Pitt is no stranger to the art of hair transformation. The actor has truly run the gamut, rocking everything from an undercut to lengthy Kurt Cobain-esque tresses circa 1994.
Most recently, the Babylon star debuted a new haircut at the 2023 Golden Globes. The actor&rsquo;s shortened locks and honey-toned highlights appeared youthful and classically chic, bringing just the Old Hollywood elegance for the occasion.

Idina Menzel

Frozen star Idina Menzel showed off her new bob haircut to the tune of "Scuse Me" by Lizzo in an Instagram video post. Her new look, styled with gently tousled curls and a middle part, was the work of celebrity hairstylist Paul Norton.&nbsp;The transformation came as a pleasant surprise to Menzel&rsquo;s followers, who were quick to compliment the singer&rsquo;s striking chin-length &lsquo;do.
