Sophie Turner has changed up her hair look and it's all the summer revamp inspiration we needed. If you're anything like us, you're still celebrating the opening of salons after lockdown and feeling your best-self after a full MOT, we're talking nails, waxing, brow and hair appointments, you get the picture. Salons were closed for so long, we had to celebrate their reopening somehow right? Now that there's no more need for DIY haircuts - touch wood - we've been looking for the the best new styles to update our look for summer, and it would seem celebs, Sophie turner included - are doing the same.
After incredible hair transformations from the likes of Billie Eilish, Emma Corrin, and Shakira in the last 6 months, Sophie Turner is the latest A-lister to switch up her style. Make way for Sophie Turner's new fringe.
'70s bangs' have been trending on TikTok recently, with a full, parted curtain fringe being the style du jour among Gen Z users, but as Sophie proves, a resurgence of fringe styles in general may well be be on the cards and her lighter layers are perfect for Summer.
According to Pinterest, Brits are taking more and more hair inspiration from our French neighbours and focusing on their chic, fuss-free cuts. A 65% increase in ‘French haircuts' was seen after the success of Emily in Paris on Netflix. From the ultimate and timeless French beauty icon Brigitte Bardot, to Parisian Make-up Artist Violette Serrat, the mussed up fringe continues to reign supreme.
Sophie Turner's style is low maintenance and as easy to recreate on short hair as well as long styles. It's likely that many of us will be taking pictures of Sophie's French girl fringe to our next appointment and for even more inspiration we've rounded up the best celebrity hairstyle switches for your scrolling pleasure...

21 Of The Best Celebrity Hair Transformations
1. Kristen Stewart
K Stew, like so many others, seemingly had enough of the typical long Hollywood hairstyle and chopped hers into a pixie crop, and then bleached it...and then shaved it into a buzz cut. Is there much else she can trial out?
2. Kaia Gerber
It's no surprise that supermodel, Kaia Gerber can pull off blonde and brunette. Transitioning slowly over lockdown, her hair has taken a journey from rich brown to warm honey and now bright blonde.
3. Lady Gaga
Experimental, daring and fun - Lady Gaga loves to mix up her looks and we've seen her dabble with blue mermaid hair, bright pink and as of late - she's back to blonde.
4. Kim Kardashian-West
Style queen Kim isn't shy to testing out trends and toeing the sartorial borderline (or wearing nothing at all and 'breaking the Internet'), and the same goes with her recent hair choices. We have always known Kim, like her sisters, to have long sleek dark brown hair that is so shiny we can see our reflections in it, yet over the past couple of years she has been switching up her look. In 2015 she bleached it white blonde. Since she has gone for a load of different, colourful options and is now rocking a deep red. We salute her efforts.
5. Ariana Grande
Singing sensation, Ariana Grande is famously known for her sky high ponytail that she's donned ever since her career took off in 2014. Over the years its seen various incarnations with a full fringe, a half-up half-down do and blonde highlights.
6. Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence's beauty has not been compromised by any of her hairstyle choices, but she looked the most striking with an ice blonde bob when she attended the Global Fan Screening of X-Men Apocalypse in 2016.
7. Jourdan Dunn
The model with legs for miles, Jourdan Dunn has experimented with her hair since making it in the modelling world. And she always looks amazing.
8. Emma Watson
We all remember when Emma Watson transformed into a woman before our eyes when she stepped out onto the red carpet for the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 with a dramatic pixie cut. She told the Metro back in 2010 that the choice to cut her hair was an ode to the end of the Harry Potter era and also signified her desire to establish her own identity, separate from Hermione Granger.'I didn't get to experiment with dyeing and chopping off my hair like most teenagers. It also felt, right, I'm 20, I'm not a little girl any more. I'd been on Harry Potter for ten years so I needed to mark the end of it in some way. I needed a drastic change and that's what the crop was all about.'
9. Emma Stone
Emma Stone is not a natural redhead, believe it or not, but kept the colour after she dyed it for a film role.
10. Lily James
Before Lily James's big on-screen moment playing Cinderella in the 2015 Disney adaptation, she had dark brown locks. But after she rocketed to fame she kept her long blonde princess hair. Now she's back to her sleek, darker hair.
11. Kylie Jenner
Now, Kylie Jenner should win awards for the amounts of times she has re-styled her hair. Granted, some of them are wigs, but how can one person look good with hair every colour of the rainbow? Out of the three we've chosen, we can't help but be drawn to the pink do. But we also think she looks great with bronde hair.
12. Rihanna
Who could forget the hair chameleon herself, Rihanna. Since the days of 'Pon de Replay' back in 2005 she has tried an array of looks and made-over her hair from one extreme to another, sometimes a few times in one year. Although her hairstyles are ephemeral they leave a lasting impression; we adored her bright red 'Only Girl In The World' look in 2011, and we were then inspired by her 'Good Girl Gone Bad' pixie crop in 2012.
13. Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus seemed to change her personality overnight under the spotlight's glare. The sweet country singer and star of Disney's Hannah Montana had pretty standard teenage hair up until 2012, when she injected some glamour into her look and rocked a balayage bob. In 2013, however, she did a full 180 and debuted a bleach blonde pixie crop. By pairing this staple short mop with provocative and wild outfits she quickly became someone we could not take our eyes off.

A few years later she grew out her hair and she's now rocking a mullet - let's face it, it's probably only a hairstyle she can pull off.
14. Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift too has had a hair-voltution. In 2006 she had big blonde curly sweetheart locks, then adapted it to make it very sleek and styled. Her biggest hair switch was in 2016 though, when she debuted her bleached bob when she attended the 'Manus x Machina' Costume Institute Gala.
15. Gigi Hadid
Gigi isn't one to shy away from hair experimentation. She had a short pixie crop in 2015, went brunette to walk the Balmain catwalk at Paris Fashion Week, and lived out all of our hair dreams when she went pink.

Now Gigi, who is pregnant, looks like she's back to sporting her natural hair.
16. Cara Delevingne
Much like her big brows, Miss Delevingne's honey coloured hair has become a signature, since her early modelling days in 2010. For years she kept her locks long and loose, until she debuted a choppy 'Lob'.

But who can forget when she had a buzz cut? Cara could suit any style.
17. Hailey Baldwin
Hailey Baldwin, like most supermodels, has experimented with dramatic hair dye and cuts: blonde to brunette to short lobs and long bangs. (We prefer her honey blonde best, though.)
18. Katy Perry
Katy Perry has worn her hair every colour of the rainbow and it's actually becoming hard to figure out what her natural hair colour is. It is jet black. Is it mousey brown?

She then shocked the world when she cut her hair into a chic bob (dyed platinum). A few years later and Katy is definitely growing it out; she now usually opts for a cute curly bob.
19. Bella Hadid
Bella's fiery red and gold highlights are giving us Ginger Spice vibes and we're totally here for it. Fancy a change? Follow suit and opt for a colour update just on the front section of your hair.
20. Emily Ratajkowski
All-around beauty Emily Ratajkowski is known for her long dark locks, and she doesn't often experiment with her hairstyle - yet as of recently she's gone creamy blonde.
21. Joe Jonas
Joe Jonas debuted a new blond buzz cut on his Instagram stories and we're totally on board with the new look. It's eye-catching, it's daring, and he's totally twinning with blonde wife Sophie Turner - cute!
