She kept her bangs long and parted them in the middle, adding some curls at the crown for volume. The short style highlighted Zellweger&#8217;s oval face and high cheekbones perfectly, and it remains one of the best\u00a0celebrity pixie cuts to inspire your next super short haircut.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"news-article\">\n<h2 class=\"\">Ren\u00e9e Zellweger looked unrecognizable with dark brown hair<\/h2>\n<div class=\"slide-key image-holder gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap \" data-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger's Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time\" data-slide-num=\"2\" data-post-id=\"1870720\">\n                                             <picture id=\"p3be5c43ede48946999ae1f022c9f21ae\"><source media=\"(min-width: 429px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-looked-unrecognizable-with-dark-brown-hair-1748368063.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><source media=\"(max-width: 428px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-looked-unrecognizable-with-dark-brown-hair-1748368063.sm.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image \" src=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-id=\"1870720\" data-slide-num=\"2\" data-slide-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger&#039;s Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time: Ren\u00e9e Zellweger looked unrecognizable with dark brown hair\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Bridget Jones The Edge of Reason photocall 2004\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n                    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"columns-holder \">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Instead of keeping with her character&#8217;s blonde hair, Ren\u00e9e Zellweger went the complete opposite direction and chose to promote &#8220;Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason&#8221; as a brunette in 2004. The almost inky-black shade complemented her porcelain face, which she kept mostly bare except for a hint of rosy blush and matching lipstick. Zellweger kept her shoulder-length style simple, with just a hint of waves and a side part. This is one moody Y2K look that we&#8217;re here for, and we wouldn&#8217;t be mad if Zellweger returned to her dark hair phase once again.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"news-article\">\n<h2 class=\"\">Ren\u00e9e Zellweger went red in 2005<\/h2>\n<div class=\"slide-key image-holder gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap \" data-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger's Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time\" data-slide-num=\"3\" data-post-id=\"1870720\">\n                                             <picture id=\"p203033332d806c84b41ee5c66016c90d\"><source media=\"(min-width: 429px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-went-red-in-2005-1748368064.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><source media=\"(max-width: 428px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-went-red-in-2005-1748368064.sm.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image \" src=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-id=\"1870720\" data-slide-num=\"3\" data-slide-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger&#039;s Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time: Ren\u00e9e Zellweger went red in 2005\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger at the 2005 Mr Abbott awards\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n                    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"columns-holder \">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">For the first time ever since becoming a huge Hollywood star, Ren\u00e9e Zellweger rocked red hair in 2005 at the &#8220;Mr. Abbott&#8221; Awards in New York City. To add even more flair to her shocking transformation, Zellweger added low-maintenance baby bangs that ended just above her eyebrows, which were also colored to match her new hue. The warm cinnamon shade brought out the native Texan&#8217;s blue eyes, and her vampy expression showed how confident she was rocking her red hair.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"news-article\">\n<h2 class=\"\">Ren\u00e9e Zellweger transformed seamlessly into her Judy role<\/h2>\n<div class=\"slide-key image-holder gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap \" data-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger's Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time\" data-slide-num=\"4\" data-post-id=\"1870720\">\n                                             <picture id=\"pcdbcd8904fb1f30a67a6d18365a3e6ed\"><source media=\"(min-width: 429px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-transformed-seamlessly-into-her-judy-role-1748367869.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><source media=\"(max-width: 428px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/rene-zellwegers-biggest-hair-transformations-of-all-time\/rene-zellweger-transformed-seamlessly-into-her-judy-role-1748367869.sm.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image \" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1870720\/renee-zellweger-hair-transformations\/\" data-post-id=\"1870720\" data-slide-num=\"4\" data-slide-title=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger&#039;s Biggest Hair Transformations Of All Time: Ren\u00e9e Zellweger transformed seamlessly into her Judy role\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Ren\u00e9e Zellweger in Judy\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n                    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"columns-holder \">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Playing Judy Garland in the titular film was one of Ren\u00e9e Zellweger&#8217;s biggest on-screen transformations. With a short, dark &#8216;do teased at the crown and bright red lipstick, Zellweger nailed her look for the role. Of course, the changed appearance was all due to hours of makeup, prosthetics, and wigs, but she nonetheless was an almost identical replica of the &#8220;Wizard of Oz&#8221; star. Even Zellweger couldn&#8217;t believe how different she looked and shared during the &#8220;Judy&#8221; premiere (via Vanity Fair), &#8220;I went, &#8216;Wow!&#8217; Jeez, Judy&#8217;s features and her defining physical characteristics were instantly recognizable.

The color was a far cry from her regular blonde hair and former darker red shade from years ago, and although it&#8217;s unclear if she&#8217;s wearing a wig, we wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if Zellweger fully dyed her locks to get into character. While her role is being kept under wraps ahead of the new season, Zellweger&#8217;s presence in the star-studded cast will certainly be to die for.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ren\u00e9e Zellweger debuted a wavy pixie at the 1999 Oscars After rising to fame from her roles in &#8220;Jerry Maguire&#8221; and &#8220;One True Thing,&#8221; Ren\u00e9e Zellweger made waves when she cut off her medium-length hair and showed off an adorable pixie during the 1999 Academy Awards.
