Welcome back, beauty aficionados, trendsetters, and those just here to see what kind of nonsense celebrities got up to this week. We’re well into 2025, and yet the "New Year, New Me" mantra continues to run amok in Hollywood. But let’s be real—sometimes, a makeover is less about self-discovery and more about keeping the internet entertained. And for that, we thank them.
This week, we’ve got DIY haircuts, sunflower-adorned braids, and nails so elaborate they could double as museum exhibits. If nothing else, the stars are keeping things unapologetically chaotic—and we love to see it. Let’s break it all down, shall we?
1. Bad Bunny’s Grooming Adventures
Listen, if there’s one thing Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (or as the cool kids call him, Bad Bunny) knows, it’s how to keep the people talking. Appearing on The Tonight Show to promote DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS (translation: I Must Take More Selfies, allegedly), he showed off a meticulously sculpted beard that was equal parts goatee, mustache, and chin fuzz.
Would this look work on anyone else? Absolutely not. Does Benito pull it off? Of course. If Bad Bunny wants to bring back a very specific brand of 2010s facial hair that belongs in a SoundCloud rapper's wet dream, who are we to argue?
2. Julia Fox’s Unhinged Haircut
“Girl, don’t do it.” Famous last words before a regrettable DIY haircut. But Julia Fox isn’t just any girl—she’s that girl. With the precision of a sleep-deprived art student attacking a canvas at 3 AM, Julia took a pair of scissors to her platinum locks, resulting in an Ace Ventura-esque masterpiece.
Now, whether you interpret this as a tribute to Jim Carrey or David Bowie (or a chaotic mix of both) is up to you. Either way, it’s bold, it’s bizarre, and honestly? It’s very Julia Fox-core.
3. Cameron Diaz’s English Rose Moment
Cameron Diaz re-emerged from her Hollywood hibernation to promote Back in Action, her first film in a decade. Naturally, she looked stunning, but let’s be real: Cameron Diaz looking good is not exactly breaking news.
This week, she channeled The Holiday nostalgia with a soft, blush-pink lip that screamed, “I drink fancy tea and go on leisurely walks in the countryside.” It’s subtle, elegant, and a reminder that sometimes, less is more—a lesson that will inevitably be ignored by everyone else on this list.
4. SadBoi’s Braided Whip Situation
Atlanta-based artist SadBoi has never been one to shy away from a look, and this week was no exception. Her sleek, knee-length braids were perfectly positioned for optimal hair flipping, and honestly? If your hairstyle doesn’t double as a self-defense weapon, what’s the point?
5. Rose Gray’s Fiery Monochrome Moment
British pop star Rose Gray is on the rise, and so is her commitment to matching everything to her hair color. This week, she took the monochrome trend to another level, pairing her signature burnt red locks with a Britney-esque leather catsuit.
The result? A stunning, coordinated look that screamed early 2000s pop star—but make it 2025. Bonus points for serving main-character energy with minimal effort.
6. Lola Young’s XXL Soap Nails
Lola Young has given us many things: soulful music, a killer mullet, and now? Nails that look like they belong in an avant-garde art exhibit. Dubbed “soap nails,” they’re long, pristine, and… mysteriously clean? In a world of over-the-top nail trends, these feel like a minimalist’s fever dream.
Messy but clean? It’s giving contradiction, but also, we’re kind of obsessed.
7. FKA twigs’ Skullet Evolution
Ah, the skullet. For those unfamiliar, it’s basically a mullet—but somehow more intense. And who better to keep this extreme hairdo alive than FKA twigs? With her new album Esexua on the horizon, she decided to take matters into her own hands and personally trim her signature cut.
DIY hair transformations seem to be a theme this week, but when twigs does it, it feels more like an artistic statement than an impulsive decision made at 2 AM.
8. Naomi Osaka’s Sunflower Power
Tennis star Naomi Osaka is back on the court and in our beauty feeds, thanks to her adorable sunflower hair clips. The floral details tied into her Nike collab, proving that yes, even in the world of professional sports, a well-coordinated aesthetic matters.
It’s giving wholesome energy, which, frankly, we needed after the chaos of the other looks this week.
9. Angel Reese’s Half-Up, Half-Down Cuteness
Angel Reese, WNBA star and emerging fashion icon, hit the perfect balance between sporty and chic with her bouncy half-up, half-down hairdo. It’s effortless yet polished—basically, the dream hairstyle for when you want to look like you tried without actually trying.
If there were a gold medal for “Cutest Basketball Star Hair,” she’d win. No competition.
10. Rihanna’s Casual Target Run (Feat. Cornrows)
Rihanna running errands at Target is proof that even billionaires crave the thrill of a discount aisle. While the rest of us show up to Target looking like we’ve just escaped from a three-day Netflix binge, Rihanna does it in perfectly styled cornrows that cascade into soft curls.
It’s casual, it’s cool, and it’s just unfair how effortlessly she pulls off everything.
11. Nails By Mei’s New York Extravaganza
Celebrity nail artist Mei Kawajiri took things to a new level this week, crafting Statue of Liberty-themed nails and a set embedded with tiny socks. Yes, socks. Because when it comes to nail art, logic is irrelevant.
We don’t know whether to be impressed or slightly disturbed, but one thing’s for sure—these nails demand attention.
Final Thoughts: Who Won the Week?
It’s a tough call, but if we had to crown a winner, it’s got to be Julia Fox and her fearless commitment to chaotic self-expression. Because while everyone else was out here serving calculated slayage, she just grabbed some scissors and hoped for the best—and honestly, that’s the kind of reckless confidence we should all aspire to.
What do you think? Did your fave make the cut? Cast your votes below, then join us next week for more beauty chaos. Until then—stay fabulous, stay bold, and maybe think twice before taking the scissors to your own hair.
