There’s arguments for and against reading into celebrity hair changes. On the one hand, celebrities are people, obviously, and while sometimes they just dye their hair for the fun of it (and the Insta story), other times it goes deeper. Case in point, when Olivia Wilde chopped her hair off last winter after seeing the Melania Trump resemblance, and when she dyed her hair dark brown to get into character as Julia in 1984. She described that hair switch as “dark times call for dark hair,” and while it was a fittingly bleak statement, with the play wrapped, she just picked up some pretty beautiful blond highlights.
Wilde first took the change out for a spin at the Tribeca Chanel Women’s Filmmaker Program Luncheon, and her highlights are the best example of a tiny amount of bleach making a huge difference. The streaks come from celebrity hairstylist Owen Gould, and while it looks like they basically just dusted her ends with a few spots of caramel, the shift changes her whole look.
Especially when the light hits her flipped out ends, the lighter color reads like a hair accessory. That’s likely because instead of going for a molten, gradually ombré-d look, the blond actually starts pretty abruptly. And since it’s at her tips, it looks even cooler.
Although to be fair, Wilde probably knew it would. In her life pre-play, she was wearing a style pretty similar to her new streaks, with the same kind of blond ends that could easily be swept up in a bun for a more brunette look. If ain’t broke (and you’re not currently starring in a dystopian production), don’t fix it, etc.
