Ana channelled Marilyn Monroe early in her career
Ana de Armas underwent a major transformation to portray Marilyn Monroe in the biopic “Blonde,” but it wasn’t the first time that she took inspiration from the Hollywood icon. Back in 2014, the “Knives Out” star appeared at the premiere of “Por un Puñado de Besos” with a buttery blond bob styled with finger waves reminiscent of Monroe’s iconic curly look. Bringing all the old Hollywood glamor, this de Armas look is definitely a celebrity shade of blond to inspire your next salon visit.
The actor turned heads with her balayage dye job
Ana de Armas showed off another head-turning look at the “Hands of Stone” photocall, with the actor sporting an orange-toned blond balayage to the press event. Part of what makes this look shine is that the hand-painted technique of balayage, which differs from highlights and babylights, really allows for individual customization. The subtle concentration of blond around de Armas’ face creates a framing effect that accentuates her natural beauty while bringing out the hazel tones in her eyes. Overall, another stunning look from the actor.
Ana went for a choppy blond look in 2017
Next, Ana de Armas strayed from her natural brunette color when appearing at CinemaCon in 2017. The transformative hair moment saw the star commit to blond, opting for a yellow-toned shade with dark roots. She wore the color with a choppy, mid-length cut styled into loose beachy waves and parted down the middle. The color change was definitely head-turning, but de Armas revealed why she doesn’t typically stick with blond. “As soon as I do it, I love it for a week,” she told W Magazine. “Then, when I have to do my roots again, I regret it right away.”
She stunned in a chin-length bob with bangs
Ana de Armas sported a chin-length bob back in 2021, pairing the short chop with straight bangs. The Cuban actor attributed the major appearance change to her role in “The Gray Man,” a Netflix action flick starring Ryan Gosling. “The team really liked the idea of a short bob,” she told Refinery29. “I thought about wearing a wig, but I have a lot of action scenes, so that didn’t seem to make sense. So I cut my hair — and I actually really like it.” We’re big fans of de Armas’s long and flowing hairstyles, but it’s undeniable that she effortlessly pulls off this chic French bob and sleek fringe.
Ana embraced a dark brunette color with subtle highlights
While Ana de Armas is a natural brunette, she’s experimented with different iterations of her dark hair color. One great example comes from the 2023 BAFTA Film Awards, with the “Blade Runner 2049” actor stunning with dark brown tresses accented by chocolate-colored tones throughout the body and ends. The subtle change creates an ombre-like effect that adds dimension to the dark hair color without overpowering her red carpet look. If you ever thought brunette was boring, one look at de Armas demonstrates otherwise.
