Nicole Richie

Richie had a much-talked-about hair color run in 2014, dying her hair light lavender, cobalt and midnight blue within the span of a few months. Back in April, Richie opened up about her decision to ditch plain ol' brown and blond locks: "I colored my hair for my daughter. It's a lot of upkeep actually, but I'm very popular at her school."

Robert Pattinson

The actor debuted something we can only describe as a modern mushroom cut on Nov. 13. Perhaps the 28-year-old is taking a cue from his edgy rocker girlfriend FKA Twigs?

Lauren Conrad

Conrad's chic new bob is proof that you shouldn't make promises you can't keep: The star once declared that she would never cut her hair again! Conrad surprised fans by taking her hair even shorter during a surprising second cut just days after chopping her locks into a long bob.

Vanessa Paradis

Well, that's one way to make a statement: The French singer went for a dramatic change with this cropped, curly 'do only days after it was reported that ex Johnny Depp had proposed to Amber Heard.

Kylie Jenner

Kylie is giving Katy Perry stiff competition over who can change hair color more times in a matter of weeks. Between October and November, the reality star swapped her extensions from black, to steel gray, to dove gray and then (back) to teal blue.

It seems the Girls star took a cue from Lena Dunham when she dyed her platinum blond in September. She later changed her hair hue-game again: Going gray in early December.
