Alert! Gigi Hadid Has Gone Raven-Black for the New Year

Holy beauty makeover! Model Gigi Hadid, who gave the world a cute and flippy bob in 2024, has now ditched her signature blonde mane for something much, much darker—what hairstylist to the stars Dimitris Giannetos has declared a “matte black mini-bob.”

Hadid, of course, is no stranger to hair evolutions; in the past, she’s gone cinnamon red and tried all different kinds of blonde, including a silvery shade for the inaugural Le Grand Dîner du Louvre in Paris last March. But her latest transformation hits all the biggest hair color trends of 2026. Described as “inky black,” it’s “an edgy, Gen-Z shade of black with zero red undertones,” Giannetos tells Vogue exclusively.

But is it for real? Or is Hadid just taking the shade out for a spin in the form of a wig? Only time will tell. This story will continue to be updated as we hear more—but for now, we’re excited to see if brunettes have more fun.
