Sabrina Carpenter Says Adieu To Her Signature Hair In Paris
For a celebrity hair transformation to be a 'moment,' three things need to happen: it should come out of left field; represent a marked departure from the star's usual style; and, at least in some way, signal a shift in their overall vibe. Nailing three out of three today is Vogue cover star Sabrina Carpenter, who arrived at Jonathan Anderson's debut Dior show in Paris sans her signature curtain bangs. Attending the Dior Homme Menswear spring/summer 2026 show in Paris, the 26-year-old was photographed with a Clueless-coded side parting and smooth blow-out, all secured in place with a tortoiseshell barrette. Though classic, the style is a definite departure from her signature bombshell curls and bouncy curtain bangs. EMMADespite flirting with various waves and curls, the Man's Best Friend singer has remained loyal to the same hairstyle for the past four years, wearing it throughout both the Emails I Can't Send and Short n' Sweet tours. In fact, her hairstyle has become such a recognizable look that rumors began to swirl that it was a wig—after all, whose natural strands could give such volume and gravity-defying bounce?!

Nicole Kidman goes back to her curly roots as she sports her natural hair on London outing - after THAT wig fail
embraced her natural hair on Wednesday as she enjoyed a dinner date in London. The actress, 58, was seen sporting a mass of curly locks as she headed home from Nobu, reminiscent of the look fans will remember from her career beginnings in the Eighties. Nicole, who was sporting a polka dot blouse and sunglasses, looked in good spirits as she chatted with her security detail while they drove her back to her hotel. The radiant redhead previously admitted she regretted changing up her look, having made the decision in the Nineties to straighten and dye her locks blonde. Her decision to embrace her natural look may have been influenced by her outing last month, when she suffered a hair fail at the 2025 Kering Women in Motion Awards. While posing up a storm on the red carpet, the mesh cap on her wig was visible, despite her real hair being weaved into it. The actress, 58, was seen sporting a mass of curly locks as she headed home, reminiscent of the look fans will remember from her career beginnings (right, in 1990's Days of Thunder) Hollywood stars often wear wigs and hair extensions to achieve a more youthful appearance as hair thins and loses volume with age. Speaking to the Daily Mail, hair stylist Adem Oygur, founder of Adem London, weighed in on why he believed Nicole had opted to wear a wig. Adem explained that Nicole's drastic change in hair colour and frequent heat styling to straighten her locks could have caused damage to her natural curls, while hormonal changes associated with menopause and perimenopause can also lead to hair loss and thinning. 'As a leading stylist, I see many women – especially those in the public eye – choosing wigs for a variety of personal and practical reasons. In Nicole's case, there could be several factors at play,' Adem said. 'Firstly, frequent bleaching or heat styling over the years can cause significant damage to the hair's structure, leading to breakage, thinning, and a loss of elasticity,' he said. 'Wigs offer a protective alternative while allowing her to maintain the high-impact looks she's known for without compromising the health of her natural hair.' The radiant redhead previously admitted she regretted changing up her look, having made the decision in the Nineties to straighten and dye her locks blonde Adem continued: 'Another possibility is hormonal changes, especially around perimenopause or menopause, which can drastically affect hair texture, volume, and growth patterns. 'It's incredibly common for women to experience thinning or dryness during this time. Wigs can provide both a confidence boost and a low-maintenance way to manage these changes. 'There's also the creative freedom aspect – wigs allow for instant transformation without the long-term commitment or potential damage. For many women, especially in entertainment, it's a smart and empowering choice.' And Nicole's habit of wearing wigs in Hollywood movies has earned her a cult following over the years. The Hollywood star has rarely showcased her natural hair in films since the early days of her career, and almost exclusively wears wigs for all of her movie roles. Speaking to the BBC previously, Nicole commented on how her red hair made her feel separate to the 'popular' kids at school. She said: 'I was very tall and very pale. I had red, curly hair and I was covered in freckles. 'I think my sense of belonging, in terms of belonging to the cool kids, wasn't there. 'Primarily being an introvert, I've subsequently found out, there was an innate shyness, but there was something I could do and that was act… that became the place that I felt comfortable.' Yet in an interview for her May 2025 Allure cover, Nicole admitted she wished she'd never touched her naturally curly locks. When shown a picture of herself in her 1990 role Days of Thunder, she sighed: 'Why did I straighten my hair? I loved my hair there. That is my natural hair. 'Isn't that crazy? So for all the little girls out there, embrace the curl. Do not follow in my steps and straighten your hair.' She added that she could still bring her curls back, but noted: 'it needs to be kind of humid, and I need to use the right product.'

Lorraine Kelly leaves fans stunned as she reveals her hair is FAKE live on show - and showcases what her natural tresses really look like
Lorraine Kelly left fans stunned as she revealed her hair is FAKE during Thursday's instalment of her ITV show. The 65 year old returned to our screens to present her programme Lorraine and discussed a number of newsworthy topics with guests. One guest appeared on the show to receive a hair transformation from hairdresser Richard Ward, after suffering from thinning hair. Right at the end of the episode, Lorraine caught up with her to see her brand new look and she was over the moon with the new length. So the Scottish host decided to make a confession, as she pulled out some clip-in extensions, Lorraine said: 'Can I just say, every morning when I'm on the telly, I have these wee things...' The star then pulled out the extensions and shouted: 'Ta-da!' as she waved them around in the air. Lorraine asked: 'Aren't they great?! I don't do it for real life, but I do it for telly! 'Helen puts them in in the morning. 'It can double as a beard!' She added: 'Isn't it fantastic?! It just gives you a little bit more...' Back in 2023 Lorraine hit back at a troll who made a nasty comment about her hair, telling her she was the one who 'needed a makeover'. Lorraine replied: 'Well good morning Cathy - only problem - when I have short hair I look like Wilson from Castaway (if you know you know).' The star shot to fame in the 80s and has become a huge TV favourite. Over the years she's presented the likes of Good Morning Britain, GMTV, This Morning and Daybreak. Lorraine pictured in 2000 presenting GMTV with a much shorter and darker hair look And the journalist has no intention of slowing down. Speaking with Woman & Home, she said: 'I don't feel my age. 'I certainly don't act my age!' She added: 'I love the way Helen Mirren says to embrace everything and enjoy every single second of what you're doing. 'She said, 'I'm not growing old, I'm growing up.' 'But I've got no intention of growing up, thank you very much!' It comes after Boy George sent a defiant message to JK Rowling during Wednesday's episode of Lorraine - swiping 'I bet she's watching now' after their vicious trans row. The 64-year-old, real name George Alan O'Dowd, took to the studio to chat to host Lorraine Kelly, 65, about his upcoming new music. During the chat Lorraine told him: 'You've always stood up for people who sometimes don't have a voice for themselves... People in the trans community, it's been very rough for them and you've said "No it's not fair".' The singer explained: 'It's real life stuff, not two celebrities bickering on the internet,' making reference to his spats with the Harry Potter author, who has come under fire about her views on trans people. Speaking about their arguments, Boy George said: 'I think it's hilarious that you're having a row with someone that I've never met. I probably never will meet. 'I feel like in the movies she creates this beautiful magic world, in real life she's a muggle. It's very disappointing it's not true.' On Tuesday Sydnie Christmas and Lorraine were left in hysterics as a Dalmatian puppy clambered on top of the singer during the ITV show.

Curl power! Actress Karen Gillan's startling new hairstyle leaves fans stunned
Her bold hair transformations for movies and manic makeovers have earned her a reputation as one of Scotland's best-loved stars. But Karen Gillan 's latest 'do has left her fans scratching their own heads. The actress took to Instagram on Saturday to debut an outlandish new look that is worlds away from her usual sleek tresses. Posing in oversized sunglasses and a two-piece sweatsuit, Karen sported a voluminous perm in her signature ginger hue. With no caption to explain her radical new style, fans were left questioning whether the perm signals the start of a fresh filming project, or is simply a nod to the actress' quirky sense of humour. The mystery deepened as another photo shared on Karen's stories showed her crazy curls piled above her head – with an orange, crab cap perched jauntily on top. The surreal pictures are by no means the first time that Karen's hairdressing has turned heads. In 2013 the actress shaved her off her locks entirely in preparation for her role as Nebula in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. Karen then recycled her shorn tresses when she appeared in a wig of her own hair later that year to play Amy Pond in a Doctor Who Christmas special episode. Steven Moffat, head writer on the show, joked: 'That wig is made of her own hair, it's just detachable now. When they cut her hair they made her a wig of her own hair. Didn't she look lovely?' Karen's shock chops are not limited to professional makeovers either, as the star has succumbed to a DIY disaster on several occasions. Last February, Karen filmed herself attempting to cut a new fringe minutes before she attended a promotional Q&A event. Documenting the ill-fated trim on TikTok she gasped: 'Oh my god, oh my god, this is a bad idea. That was a mistake: this is rubbish!'
