For most of their time in the spotlight, Gigi Hadid has been blonde and Bella Hadid brunette. The contrast suited the model sisters, giving them a yin-yang kind of balance. Recently, however, the pair swapped hair colors\u2014and both look stunning.<\/p>\n
Bella has been blonde for some time now, first debuting a fresh honey shade in May. Before that, the star was last blonde back in 2022. In a 2016 interview with Allure<\/em>, Bella explained that she initially went brunette to help differentiate herself from her sister. \u201cI just have a darker personality,\u201d she told the magazine. \u201cAnd my sister being blonde and me being brunette, it\u2019s a good separation.\u201d Now, the sisters have contrasting hair colors once again\u2014but this time, flipped.<\/p>\n <\/center> <\/p>\n A few days ago, photos of Gigi sporting a chic black bob drew attention. We asked her hairstylist, Dimitris Giannetos, what prompted the decision to go short and dark. \u201cI created this look for Gigi for a Maybelline campaign,\u201d he tells us. \u201cIt was for a new black mascara, so we wanted to do something very edgy and bold. We went with a matte black, avoiding any red undertones.\u201d<\/p>\n Transitioning from blonde to dark hair can be tricky, but Giannetos says it\u2019s all about technique\u2014and he has a pro tip. \u201cTo go dark from blonde, you have to first fill the hair with a red color. Starting from a red helps the black look rich and not gray,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n The swap feels easy, and that\u2019s kind of the point. For Gigi and Bella, hair color has always been part of the fun.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
