Pamela Anderson has made a dramatic change from her longtime blonde look, unveiling a vibrant copper hair color just as autumn approaches. The 58-year-old actress showcased her fresh strawberry blonde locks at a Vogue event in Paris during Fashion Week on September 30, where her new style was highlighted through photos shared on Instagram via photographer Maco Bahler’s account.
Her hair featured loose curls with a side part, and curtain bangs that extended slightly below her eyebrows, with the rest of her shoulder-length hair sleekly clipped. Anderson paired her bold hair transformation with a white Nora dress by One Of, styled by Bailey Moon. The dress included a high neckline, short sleeves, a scarf draped over her back, and a pleated skirt, complementing her autumnal new look.
Fan Reactions Praise Anderson’s Autumn Hair Transformation
Reaction from fans was overwhelmingly positive, with many social media users expressing their admiration. One fan exclaimed, “THIS DIVA OH MY GOD,” while another encouraged Anderson to keep the new shade:
Love love love love the new hair color, I really hope Pam keeps it ❤️.
A further admirer commented, “Her best look yet.” This shift marks a notable departure from the platinum blonde hair Anderson has often sported over the years.
Anderson’s Hairstyling Journey and Iconic ‘90s Roots
Earlier in 2023, Anderson maintained her bright blonde look for the Deauville Film Festival in France, where her hair was styled in a voluminous blowout. Throughout the 1990s, she was known for her signature messy bun, which became inseparable from her public image. In a revealing interview with British Vogue this year, Anderson shared a nostalgic insight into how her iconic hairstyles originated.
While emptying her bag, Anderson surprised many by revealing a G-string, initially unsure why she carried the lingerie item until she turned it into a practical hair accessory.
Don’t tell me that you don’t have a scrunchie,
she said, before demonstrating by securing her hair with the underwear.
This is the trick of the trade,
Anderson added.
We’re really flashing back to the ’90s. The tousled updo always hid a pair of panties in them.
Embracing Natural Beauty After Personal Loss
In addition to changing her hair, Anderson has shifted her approach to makeup, choosing to embrace a more natural look following the passing of her longtime makeup artist, Alexis Vogel, who died in 2019 from breast cancer. Speaking to Elle magazine in August 2023, she shared,
She was the best. And since then, I just felt, without Alexis, it’s just better for me not to wear makeup,
acknowledging how this change has influenced her self-presentation.
Anderson reflected on the aging process with a candid perspective:
I think we all start looking a little funny when we get older. And I’m kind of laughing at myself when I look at the mirror. I go, ‘Wow, this is really…what’s happening to me?’ It’s a journey.’ But largely a happy one. ‘I feel rooted for. I feel good. I’m in a good place.’
Her choice to forgo heavy makeup feels liberating, especially considering her ’90s signature look often featured smokey eyeshadow, nude lined lips, and contoured cheeks. Anderson’s evolving style highlights a powerful embrace of authenticity amid personal growth and change.
