She wowed with golden blonde curls at the AFI Fest.
Angelina Jolie has made a name for herself as a timeless, ageless beauty. Always looking like the picture of sleek, high-gloss beauty and undertaking some seriously polished updos, Jolie isn’t the type to stray from her tried-and-true hairstyles too often.
Whether it was her signature blowout with mellow waves or an impeccably swept back chignon, you could most often count on the Oscar winning actor to get the job done in low key, put together fashion. But all that changed this past weekend, when Jolie hit the AFI Fest in Los Angeles, sporting a head-turning hair transformation that had us doing a double take.
On October 26, Jolie arrived to a press event for her forthcoming Netflix film Maria, and hit the red carpet looking nothing like herself. The normally neutral, quiet luxury leaning actress shed her sleek strands for a voluminous, golden blonde curly affair. Courtesy of celebrity hairstylist Renato Campora, who also works with names like Selena Gomez and Elizabeth Olsen, Jolie’s hair cascaded over one shoulder in undone waves with a mix of defined ringlets and soft, brushed out texture. The gold of her curls shone bright under the lights, subtle hints of caramel intertwined.
The dark roots blended really well to a honey blonde finish that added depth and texture to the curls. Jolie’s waves were just tousled in the most effortless manner, like she had run her fingers through her hair and let the careless vibe be carried off. This unexpected style shift was perfectly complemented with her makeup – her signature bold red lip, defined lashes, and radiant skin finished off the look. Jolie’s hair, textured to perfection, interestingly juxtaposed against a satin slip dress and extra long duster coat, turned what could have been sleek into bohemian chic.
This red carpet moment comes as Jolie promotes her new role as Maria Callas, the famed opera singer she plays in Maria. Already generating Oscar buzz for her performance, the film’s press tour promises plenty of additional style moments to come. With any luck, we’ll be seeing more of these gorgeous curls from Jolie soon – because let’s be real, we are obsessed.
For our AI recreation of Angelina Jolie’s curls, we wanted her to have a voluminous chin-length bob that exudes style and playfulness. The tone remains warm blonde but subtle honey and ash highlights give the curls an added depth and dimension. This is a great length to make the curls feel bouncy and full of life, framing her face really nice.
Her cut is rounded in shape, while the curls fall naturally to one side to create a slightly asymmetrical shape with a front lock that mimics side bangs. This is a perfect style to channel Jolie’s bold new hair direction while keeping it fresh and versatile for any occasion.
Whether worn with a satin slip dress or a towering sweater, the look is valid for any season and almost timeless. Honey blonde highlights endow her with a warm luminosity that sends her complexion and the overall appeal sky high.
From the buzz with Maria to her stunning AFI Fest look, Angelina Jolie’s new hairstyle is a breath of fresh air and fingers are seriously crossed these curls will make an appearance again at future events.
