There’s no question that 2023 was Margot Robbie’s year. The blockbuster movie Barbie catapulted the actor back onto our screens as a life-size version of the globe’s favourite doll, sending her fame level into the stratosphere. She even transformed into Barbie on the red carpet during the film’s premieres and award season. Robbie’s method dressing informed her hair and make-up, with long, bouncy blonde hair and fresh, flushed make-up. Until now…
Goodbye Barbie blonde!
On set in LA this week for A Big, Bold, Beautiful Journey, which is rumoured to be released next year, Robbie was spotted with a new hairstyle and colour. Instead of her distinctive golden Barbie blonde, Robbie was seen with a new hair colour – also set to be one of this year’s biggest hair colour trends – “old money blonde” with a subtle red hue. The rich, dark, ashy blonde with a hint of copper gives the darker blonde shade more shine as it helps the blonde colour shine when light hits it. The reason for the change is no doubt part of her transformation into the character Robbie is playing in the film, but like her Barbiecore style, it’s another winning beauty look.
It’s not just Robbie’s hair colour that’s had an update, the actor now has a fresh on-trend fringe. The wispy bangs have a nod to the ’90s, framing Robbie’s face with cleverly feathered pieces and longer side sections giving the fringe an effortless style. Similar to curtain bangs, this wispy fringe style is the perfect noncommittal hairstyle change as it grows out more easily than blocky bangs. Robbie, yet again, proves she’s a beauty chameleon.
