Celebrities love ombre; that’s why you’ll see so many celebs with ombre hair walking the red carpet. From TV stars to award-winning musicians and high-profile influencers, the ombre trend has found its place in the heart of celebrity culture. The ombre hair will continue to be one of the most popular hair colors in 2024 and why shouldn’t it?
Ombre hair is versatile and low maintenance. It can work on dark or light hair and be bold or subtle. We love an ombre on long hair, but it can also spice up a short bob.
Ombre Hairstyles from Iconic Celebrities
Below are some trailblazing celebs who embraced the ombre hair trend. Use these photos as inspiration for your ombre hair.
You can even bring these photos to show your stylist during the consultation at your next color appointment. Showing a photo of your favorite ombre celeb is a great way to let your stylist know what you’re looking for!
#1. Alexa Chung
If you have shorter hair and wonder if an ombre would work for you, this is proof! We adore this subtle ombre on Alexa Chung’s shoulder-length bob.
#2. Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy Teigen proves that even very dark hair can fade into beautiful blonde ends. Chrissy’s ombre is a great example of how teasy lights can give darker hair several levels of lift to create the perfect transition from dark to light.
#3. Ciara
If you’re looking for bold, high-contrast ombre hair inspiration, look no further. Ciara rocks this two-toned ombre that is equally polished and edgy.
#4. Drew Barrymore
Our golden girl Drew Barrymore looks amazing with this warm, face-framing ombre. The way the color transitions so seamlessly from dark to light makes it easy to see why Ombres are back!
#5. Khloe Kardashian
This golden brunette balayage looks gorgeous on Khloe Kardashian! This is an excellent example of how brunette hair can be lightened and pack a punch without being platinum.
We love the “bronde” hair trend and think this ombre would be a great look for all brunettes.
#6. Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner had us all wanting a teal ombre; honestly, we still dream about this gorgeous ombre. If natural colors aren’t your thing, consider a bright and fun fashion color for the ends of your hair instead of blonde!
#7. Lea Michele
This bombshell ombre on Lea Michele makes us want to cut bangs! Keeping the bangs dark and lightening just the ends is such a fun and creative way to wear an ombre.
#8. Mindy Kaling
We love the placement of this ombre on Mindy Kaling. Ombres don’t have to start high up on the hair to stand out. This would be perfect on all the long hair gals out there!
#9. Natalie Portman
This soft and subtle ombre proves you don’t have to get a high-contrast ombre to have stunning hair. This hand-painted ombre is classy, just like our queen, Natalie Portman.
#10. Rosie Huntington Whiteley
If you are naturally blonde, you may wonder if an ombre would give you enough of a change.
Rosie Huntington Whiteley shows us blondes can have beautiful ombres as well. We love the contrast between the dark and light blonde shades!
#11. Sarah Jessica Parker
