8 Asian celebrity hair transformations you should bookmark

We round up our favourite shakeups of 2019

by Sinead Lee  /   December 11, 2019

Many of us turn to A-listers for inspo when contemplating a makeover for our crowning glory, whether this means going bleached blonde, cutting wavy bangs or adding waist-length extensions.

This year, the sleek hair transformations of celebs like TaeYeon, Priyanka Chopra and Tiffany Young filled us with collective awe and give us a shot of confidence so we can feel that much more gung-ho about our own revamp.

8 Asian celebrity hair transformations you should bookmark
Taeyeon

Once upon a time during her Girl’s Generations days, TaeYeon had “girl next door” written all over with her pretty but safe brown hair. But earlier this year, she went platinum blonde — instant va va voom.

Tiffany Young

Her lyrics, “they can never judge me cause they don’t know me” is pretty apt here. After some Insta-stalking, we quickly realised this singer is a hair chameleon, pulling off various colours and lengths with style.

Bae Suzy

By now, ash brown locks have us hitting the snooze button. Bae Suzy must have felt the same way because she opted for a sultrier, more intense vibe. Enter burgundy hair. Nobody’s sleeping now.

Rachel Chu — okay fine, Constance Wu — brushes aside her blunt bangs now that filming for Hustlers has wrapped.

Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka hasn’t always been adventurous with her looks — she’s maintained her lengthy brown tresses for the longest time — but her recent choppy layered hair proves she’s not afraid to take some smart risks.

It feels like every celebrity who wishes for a change instantly falls back on a chin-length bob or a pixie cut. Can’t say we don’t love Lana’s wavy take though.

Rriley

Rriley is no stranger to change. Not only did she ditch her old moniker, Sandra Riley, but she’s also worked through all sorts of hairstyles and colours, from purple shoulder-length locks to long, glamorous platinum tresses.

Mindy Kaling

Though the gold sequin gown she wore to this year’s Met Gala was similar to her get-up in Ocean’s 8, Mindy turned it up a notch by pairing the outfit with a platinum blonde wig.
