Victoria Monet’s Blonde Era Might Be Our Favorite — See Photos

On February 27, Victoria Monet announced her return to the music world by teasing her single, Smoke, which was then released on March 24. The drop was our official sign that Jaguar II, her second album, would be on the way. This new era of music is also sparking a change in her look — abandoning her brunette roots, the singer-songwriter has been living her best life as a blonde. 

Monet posted a selfie of herself with straight platinum-blonde hair on April 6. Given her radiant glow, the photo was probably snapped during golden hour — that period when the sunlight provides the best lighting for a photo. At her crown, you can see a sliver of darker roots that fade perfectly into the much lighter blonde hue. 

Her platinum-blonde strands looked like they had been freshly straightened. It’s a mystery as to how long this unit is because the very ends were outside of the phone frame; we’re guessing the longest pieces are waist-length. 

This hair looked stunning on her, of course, but we also couldn’t get enough of her face. We’re pretty sure Monet was wearing a face full of makeup with an orange blush on the cheeks and a matte brown shadow on her eyes. Her wispy lashes could be lash extensions or a good pair of falsies. A seemingly sheer gloss coated her lips.
