Selena Gomez's Hair Evolution Serves Look After Lewk

At the 81st Golden Globes — days after attending the Lakers game with boyfriend Benny Blanco with the same blond tresses she’d been sporting since November — the best actress nominee seemingly went back to her signature brunette roots.

Though her ‘do was up in a tight, ballerina bun, fans pointed out that her roots no longer contained honey strands. “Did she change the hair color?” asked one user on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Miss Gomez brought back the chunky highlights of summer and fall-ified it with honey strands in a soft ombré style. “The one and only @selenagomez,” Philipp Verheyen, who styled this particular look (though not necessarily the color), said on Instagram. “What an aura, what a woman,” he added, before thanking her for putting her trust in him.

Wednesday Addams’ hair isn’t the only Wednesday character fans are getting their style inspo from. Instead, Gomez seemingly took a cue from the brunette’s roomie, Enid, with a multi-colored bob wig. The OMITB star debuted the bright look Dec. 9 via TikTok. The video showed her ducking down beneath a hand drier in a bathroom to dry off her colorful locks.

With summer on the mind, Gomez shook things up in May 2022 with waist-grazing, long, layered hair. She switched up her curtain bangs for some ‘70s-inspired, wispy bangs. It gives off flower child vibes in the best way — she just needs to toss up a peace sign.

Switching up her hair look yet again in 2022, Gomez shortened her sleek lob into a shaggy, textured bob with wavy bangs. While she’s done bangs before, we haven’t seen them quite this undone and tousled except maybe when she went briefly curly on social media in 2022.

Just months after debuting a low maintenance bob, Gomez served a new length on the 2022 Critics’ Choice Awards red carpet. Her sleek, long ponytail is a look the star favors, especially for big events, and I am always here for a throwback moment.

Now, in 2022, the Rare Beauty founder is serving businesswoman with a capital B. Between her beauty line, music career, return to acting, and starring in her own cooking show, this low-maintenance cut is ideal for Gomez.

The length came back for 2021, and Gomez styled her long hair with waves and loose wavy curls. There is a slight balayage effect to her hair that lightens her classic dark brown around her jaw and below.

Gomez broke out her beautiful, natural curls for her 2020 haircut. The choppiness of her cut allows each curl to bounce to the nth degree and the chestnut and copper tones in her dark hair really pop.

Back in 2019, Gomez was one of the first celebrities to hop on the shag train. Her ‘70s look was blown out; had wispy, curtain bangs; and boasted subtle low lights for dimension. Even three years later, this look is still so trendy.

There comes a point in every brunette celebrity’s career where they must try out blonde, and Gomez’s first turn to the lighter colors was in 2017. She went full platinum blonde with peek-a-boo roots for a lived-in look.

You could not miss Gomez at Z100’s iHeartRadio Jingle Ball, with her deep brown waist-length hair. Her deep, dark shade was the perfect accessory to offset her ivory strapless dress.

While at the Teen Choice Awards in 2012, Gomez’s naturally dark hair was lightened to a soft bronde balayage. The ombré look featured long layers that ended at her waist.

In 2008, Gomez changed up her bang game by opting for blunt, long bangs straight across her forehead. The rest of her hair followed suit, with the sharp bangs as her lob is also mono-length.

At one of her first red carpet experiences, Gomez went for a 2007 classic: dramatic side bangs. Like all the cool girls in my middle school, she feathered the ends so her bangs almost entirely cover one of her eyes.
