Ariana Grande Ditches Blonde for Brunette, Sending Fans Into a Frenzy
Pop superstar Ariana Grande has debuted a striking new brunette hairstyle, sparking excitement among her fans after a period defined by her platinum blonde look coinciding with her role in the upcoming film Wicked. The singer’s hair colorist, Francesco de Chiara, shared before-and-after photos on social media, marking what he called “a new chapter.”
The image change comes as Grande wraps up work on Wicked, where she plays Glinda, a role that saw her embrace a substantially different aesthetic. Fans promptly took to social media to express their enthusiasm for the return of Grande’s darker hair, a look many associate with her earlier music and style.
“Ahhhh brown hair is back,” one fan wrote, while her brother Frankie Grande simply penned, “Yes it is indeed my sister.” Others shared similar sentiments, with comments including “I wasn’t ready for this!!!” and “A thousand times YES!”
De Chiara’s post showcased a clear transition from Grande’s blonde tresses to a rich brunette shade. He captioned the images: “From this to this – a new chapter has begun!”
it remains unclear whether the brunette look is a permanent change or a temporary style for an upcoming project. However, the color is currently on-trend, with “pecan” shades - characterized by warm caramel, gold, and bronze undertones - becoming increasingly popular in salons this winter.These multidimensional shades offer a high-shine, luxurious look often achieved through low-maintenance techniques like balayage.
