Kylie Jenner's Hair Evolution Is Filled With So Many Stylish Twists & Turns
Kylie Jenner's hair changes like the wind. Be it with dye or wigs, the makeup mogul is always adjusting her tresses to match her look for the day, and it's given her fans serious hair inspiration over the years. Kylie Jenner's hair evolution goes through just about every color in the rainbow, it seems. And trying to keep up with her ever-changing style is a hard feat, but we're breaking down all of the different hair looks she's sported over the years. Doing the Lord's work, I know.
For a while, Jenner mimicked her older Kardashian sisters' hairstyles, in that she kept her hair long and dark. She would switch between having her hair straight and having her hair curly for most public events, but like lots of women, as she grew older, Jenner started experimenting with different styles and colors. Now, she mainly resorts to wigs if she wants to change up her hair, letting her natural hair have a bit of a break, but who knows when she's going to dye her natural hair next?
One thing's for sure, Kylie Jenner's hair journey has had a bunch of twists and turns. Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we?
2012: Hair For Days
Weirdly enough, The Hunger Games red carpet premieres are a great way of tracking Jenner's early hair evolution.

March 2013: Keeping Up With The Kardashians
Jenner sported a long, curly look at the 2013 Kids Choice Awards that looked a lot like her older sister Kim Kardashian's long tresses. She still had her ombré, although not as prominent, but the style was very Kardashian.
Nov. 20, 2013: Living That Ombré Life
In November 2013, Jenner rocked an ombré look at the red carpet premiere of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Consider her bangs officially grown out, and consider her ombré impossible to miss! She kept this dark-to-light-brown ombré look for a while.

Jenner debuted a gorgeous rose-gold look in September 2017. This was during the time when she was hiding her pregnancy from the world.

April 21, 2019: A Braided Moment

Jenner matched her hair to her Versace dress and puffy sleeves at the 2019 Met Gala. The wig was long and straight, and the color was a gorgeous lavender.
August 2019: Vacation Mode
For her 22nd birthday in August 2019, Jenner jumped on a yacht with Stormi, Scott, and a select group of friends and family and sailed off to Italy. Her hair was a black, wavy moment throughout the vacation, though not as long as her previous 2019 extensions.
There you have it, folks. If there's anything I learned from Kylie Jenner's hair evolution over the years, it's that I am pissed her bangs phase was glam as hell and not cringeworthy like mine. Not fair!
