Watch:Chappell Roan Looks Unrecognizable With Straight Strawberry Blonde Hair

Chappell Roan is now dancin’ at the strawberry blonde pony club.

The “Good Luck, Babe!” singer recently debuted her new hair transformation on Instagram, and the style is a major switch-up from her signature red loose curls.

“Will the girl who I just met at the perfume store please comment the perfume you recommended?” the 27-year-old wrote in the May 16 post, which sees her flaunting her new copper blonde hair in a straight middle part. “I wrote it down and just deleted it on accident. The world ‘girl’ was in the brand name & you said it smelled like lipstick. Thank you.”

Though Chappell (real name Kayleigh Rose Amstutz) might’ve fumbled the chance in finding her dream fragrance, she scored a win with her new hair color. In fact, it seems she’s been hinting at lighter hair for a while. The “Red Wine Supernova” star reflected on her old brown-to-blonde ombré hair last December, describing that style as “a different era indeed.”

Facts About Chappell Roan

And while she’s reminiscing on her natural hair color, she’s continued to put her red curls on display in the last few months, including adding more volume to her style at the 2025 Met Gala.

As for whether Chappell is permanently a strawberry blonde or is experimenting with wigs, her hair makeover isn’t the only new addition in her life. Nearly two months ago, the Grammy winner confirmed that she’s been privately dating her girlfriend for over half a year.

“It’s serious,” Chappell described of her romance in her March 25 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast. “I’m very in love. I’m dating the same person that I was dating before it blew up. I’m not sure how I would date now. I think it would actually be a nightmare. I think I would be so f–king single right now.”

While she’s comfortable with her new partner, Chappell revealed she had moments of doubt due to her celebrity status.

“I’m scared. I don’t trust anyone,” she continued. “I just think in my head, any new person that I am texting, I’m assuming they will screenshot this and send it to someone else. That’s why I can’t.”

But now, it seems her romance (and new hair) are thriving. Keep reading to see other celebrities who have elevated their hairstyles over the years…
