Selena Gomez has been a bonafide icon for years, whether you remember her from Wizards of Waverly Place or you adored her Rare album. And Gomez’s hair has changed dramatically throughout the years. She’s had bobs, shags, and princess’s hair, and she even dabbles in blonde. The former Disney Channel actress has done it all, and she has done it in style.
Gomez initially rose to stardom in 2003 with the film Spy Kids 3-D, and it’s been nearly two decades. Since then, she’s featured alongside Steve Martin in Only Murders in the Building, won a Grammy for her Latin Pop Album, hosted her own culinary program, created her own beauty brand, and was the most followed person on Instagram for nearly three years at one point. She’s had the chance to sport a variety of hairstyles throughout her amazing career. She’s not afraid to cut her hair short, long, or experiment with different colors.
The “Lose You To Love Me” singer just underwent a major hair transformation. Gomez’s hair is now a lob that just brushes her shoulders, replacing her previously waist-length hair. She’s also sporting the soon-to-be-trendy “Expensive Brunette” color.
She’s had several distinct looks before she became a Hair Icon. Here’s a look back at some of her best and most thrilling hairstyles over the course of her nearly two-decade career.
