Nicole Kidman is captivating audiences once again in the upcoming season of Nine Perfect Strangers, not just with her performance but also with her striking new look. Yep, this is now her third hair transformation this month!
In the latest season of the show, premiering on Hulu May 21, Nicole—simultaneously an iconic redhead and blonde—dons an ice-white peroxide blonde lob (long bob) haircut complete with blunt bangs, a departure from her signature long locks. Styled by hair and makeup artist Noriko Watanabe, the platinum hue and sharp cut add a modern edge to her character, Masha Dmitrichenko.
This dramatic change follows Nicole's appearance at the 2025 Met Gala, where she debuted a jaw-dropping two-tone pixie cut. Styled by Adir Abergel, the look was inspired by the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” embracing elements of Dandyism. The short, asymmetrical cut was complemented by a black strapless Balenciaga gown, showcasing her versatility and willingness to experiment with bold styles.
10s, 10s, 10s across the board.
That said, just days later, at the Academy of Country Music Awards, the actor returned to her signature chest-length tresses, walking the red carpet with husband Keith Urban. This swift transformation leads us to believe that her Met Gala look was most probably a wig.
After all, Nicole does have a history of using wigs for various movie roles, so are we all that surprised? (Spoiler: The answer is no, no we're not.)
Alas, whether it's the ice-white lob in Nine Perfect Strangers or the dramatic pixie at the Met Gala, Nicole continues to push the boundaries of style, proving she's a true chameleon in the world of fashion and beauty.
Get yourself a girl who can do both it all!
