Angelina Jolie ditched her signature brunette color for what looks like a honey blonde wig on the set of her latest film By the Sea, for which she wrote the screenplay and which also stars her husband Brad Pitt. The lighter shade is a dramatic change for the 39-year-old mother of six – and something tells us that off-camera she’ll stick to her rich dark hue.
Renée Zellweger, who recently spoke out about her new look to PEOPLE, was snapped on the set of her new film, Same Kind of Different as Me, in a much darker (and longer!) hairstyle thanks to a wig from the costume department.
And finally, Sarah Hyland, who is always switching up her do for her role in Modern Family, is back to extensions, going to great lengths with her previously shoulder-grazing strands. We wonder if the star opted for some extra inches for TV purposes or if the long look is for a Halloween costume. Either way, she wears both styles well, although her usual lob works great with her petite frame.
