Reese Witherspoon is one stylin' lady who likes to change things up. The 35-year-old actress looked effortlessly chic and sexy at the Golden Globes just a few weeks ago; her blonde, wavy hair looked bouncy and playful. I'm sure it wasn't easy to get her mane to do such things; she probably sprayed the crap out of it with beach curl enhancers, root thickeners, and lightweight hairspray, then parted it in the middle, blew it dry, curled it a bit, maybe said a prayer or two, and, finally, poof! Reese looked gorgeous with bed-head on the red carpet. Now, after all that work, she's taken her hair in the opposite direction. She was spotted at an airport in Paris with a new 'do. Girl got bangs.
Her hair now pin-straight, Reese has forgone her California surfer girl waves and now has longish bangs that dust the top of her eyelids. And you know something? She pulls it off. Reese always pulls it off, though -- there's really nothing she can't do when it comes to her golden locks. Lucky "b" word.
Her red carpet hair was sexy, her new bangs look is girly, and both look good on her. Not many people have that sort of versatility, but Reese is able to change up her look with a few clip-clips of the scissors and viola! New, great 'do.
Reese has worn bangs before, perhaps most memorably on the Golden Globes red carpet back in 2007, so she's no stranger to the hairstyle. It must be awesome to be able to keep experimenting with new and old haircuts operating with the knowledge, as Reese must, that there's no wrong answer.
If I had to choose, though, if someone put a hair dryer to my ear and was slowly burning me until I yelled out an opinion, I suppose I'd say that I like her lo-fi, beachy waves more than I do the blunt bangs. But until that hair dryer-wielding hostage-taker comes around, I'll just say that I love all her looks. Can't wait to see what she does next.
