Celebrity Hair Transformations of 2024: The Stars on Our Mood Boards

The stars are always feeding us. Every day, Hollywood’s biggest names inspire us through their work in TV, film, music, sports. They also find themselves on our mood boards due to their drool-worthy wardrobes and eye-catching glam—especially their hair. Hairstylists around the world are flooded with requests to look like the industry’s It Girls and hottest hunks after said celebrities unveil new looks on the red carpet, runway, or small screen.

This year, fan-favorite actors, models, and even athletes proved that bold colors, blunt chops, and manicured facial hair is more in than ever. Travis Kelce shocked football lovers and Swifties when he kicked off the NFL season with a grown-out mane complemented by clean shaven face. The look was drastically different from the fade and scruffy beard the Kansas City Chiefs tight end had rocked for years.

Cincinnati Bengals’ quarterback Joe Burrow also switched things up, stepping out with platinum blonde locks during the NFL preseason in August. The LSU alum isn’t the only star to test out whether or not blondes have more fun. Both Zendaya and Rihanna went lighter earlier this year. After attending the 2024 Oscars with her signature warm brunette crown, Zendaya unveiled a honey blonde ‘do at the Challengers premiere in March. As the press tour continued, Zendaya’s hair appeared to get lighter, with the actress eventually settling on an icy hue. In April, Rihanna showed off bright blonde strands while celebrating her latest Fenty x Puma collection in London. While the star has donned a number of different hair colors through the years (we’re never going to be over her red hair during her “Loud” era), the newest hue marked her first major makeover since welcoming her sons RZA and Riot Rose with partner ASAP Rocky.
