Nothing says “spring refresh” like a new ‘do, and Lindsay Lohan’s latest look has us running to book our next hair appointments.
Her luscious locks, famous for their alternating shades of fiery red and golden-blonde throughout her career, have taken on a creamier, frothier, cooler tone than we’ve seen on the Freakier Friday star yet—an icy, ashen blonde that Lohan and her hairstylist, Dimitris Giannetos, both dubbed “almond milk hair” on Instagram.
“I wanted Lindsay’s look to feel expensive with an old Hollywood inspiration, but in the most modern, current way,” Giannetos says in a press release. “I decided to change Lindsay’s hair to this gorgeous almond milk color. It’s something she hasn’t worn before and it looks incredible on her.”
With warm, golden-hued highlights and dye jobs dominating one spring and summer after another, we’re feeling revived by Lohan’s seemingly anti-spring color choice—opting for a cool-toned blonde as the weather starts to warm. Somewhere between a cool bronde and icy champagne shade, Lohan’s strands vary from layer to layer, with lowlights teetering on the edge of mousy brunette and highlights reaching an ultralight citrine. Together, they form a uniquely glamorous shade that we’d expect to see as an autumnal blonde option or winter highlight hue, but we’re becoming increasingly enticed by this ever so slightly unseasonal style choice.
Though she’s one of the first stars to embrace this cool-girl trend with her cascading locks, we’ve seen angsty, desaturated makeup sweeping the beauty scene for quite some time, with shades of gray and other out-of-season color palettes gaining popularity this spring.
Though Lohan’s look was courtesy of a wig (What Wigs, to be exact—a brand Kim Kardashian and Chappell Roan have also used), we’re still itching to try out this milky hue for ourselves.
