Drew Barrymore stuns fans recreating her iconic ‘Charlie’s Angels’ premiere look with long, wavy blonde hair by celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton.
Cue the nostalgic music, because Drew Barrymore just took us on a trip back to the early 2000s with her latest hair transformation! If you’ve been yearning for the days of beachy blonde waves and iconic graphic tees, Drew’s got you covered. In a jaw-dropping reveal, she recreated the look she rocked at the 2003 premiere of Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle in NYC. It’s like she’s stepped out of a time machine, and we are here for it!
Partnering with celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton and makeup mogul Charlotte Tilbury, Drew pulled off a transformation that’s nothing short of spectacular. On June 5, she shared a series of Instagram photos where she looked like a mirror image of her younger self, down to the long, wavy warm blonde hair and a near-identical graphic tee. Honestly, we couldn’t even tell it was a wig! Can we get a little commotion for this blonde bombshell?
The full reveal came on the June 6 episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, where she flaunted her new (old?) look. The formerly brunette talk show host, now 49, showcased her beachy waves and throwback style on her show’s Instagram account, treating fans to two photos and a video. Gwyneth Paltrow summed up our feelings perfectly with her comment, “Daaaaaang,” on the Instagram post. There’s so much to unpack, but let’s start with that hair.
In the video, Drew initially appears with her natural brunette locks, dressed casually in a baggy blue Chicago skyline tee. As she waves at the camera, she magically transforms, revealing herself in a dressing room sporting those iconic blonde waves and her signature graphic tee that reads “My Boyfriend Is Out Of Town.” It’s the same tee she wore to the “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle” premiere, standing alongside her co-stars Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu.
Appleton channeled Drew’s 2003 premiere vibe, drawing inspiration from her then-signature blonde crimped hair with dark roots. “I love all of Drew’s eras,” Appleton shared in the video, “What a fun way to play dress up.” He meticulously styled the wig in beachy waves, blending darker blonde highlights with super bleached and dark brown pieces. The result? A flawless homage to her past self.
Drew’s hair transformation is a playful nod to her past and a reminder that some styles are simply timeless.
