Jessica Alba Delights Fans with Her Makeover as She Hangs Out in Paris
Jessica Alba "literally can't make up her mind," say's hairstylist Brittney Ryan who posted a series of the actress's hair color and style transformations. The "Honey" star magically emerged—albeit down to video editing—at the Paris Fashion Week the other day sporting a different hair color than she did not too long ago.
Jessica Alba recently posted a jaw-dropping video of herself contributing to the Before and After social media trend. She plays a sped-up version of Miguel's song "Adore," appearing underdressed in her home before reappearing dressed up and styled to the T.
She began making the 'before' part of the video at home and finished the 'after' part of it standing close to the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The actress looked like her breathtaking self next to the iconic French wonder of the world.
Alba's reemergence in Paris was not a random outcome. She traveled to the French capital for the 2023 Paris Fashion Week and was seen at the Balmain Fall 2023 runway show.
The actress stunned in her black puffy-shouldered low-neckline mini dress topped off by a pair of black velvet gloves, pointed heels, and a black handle bag.
She was not the only star at the Balmain event, as she was joined in attendance by Ashley Graham and Jourdan Dunn. The iconic Paris Fashion week began on February 27 and will continue until March 7.
One of the things that stood out from her look at the event in Paris was her hairdo. Many of Alba's fans wrote about how much they adore her new dark hair. "All about dark hair makes anyone look younger," a fan wrote, complimenting the "Honey" star for shaving off a few years with the hair color.
Another fan said that Alba looks "bomb" with her darker hair, while another simply pointed out how good a combination her black outfit and strong colored hairdo were, saying, "You and the black color."

Alba is no stranger to hair color changes, and she showed her style versatility when she premiered her blonde do on February 4 last year. While she previously sported a darker brunette hairdo that trended through the fall, Alba was quick to hop on the expensive blonde look that dominated spring 2022.
Zayn Malik's ex-girlfriend Gigi Hadid also surfed the blonde wave last Spring. According to celebrity hairstylists Tom Smith, the 'expensive blonde' and 'expensive brunette' terminology refers to the richly defining detail that a softly varying shade of the color helps achieve.
A few months later, Alba returned to factory settings—so to speak—when she dropped the blonde do for a head of brunette hair. "She literally can't make up her mind," her hairstylist Brittney Ryan wrote in the caption of an Instagram post showing Alba's hair color transformation from brunette to blonde and back to brunette.
Her hair color changes are not random. According to Cosmopolitan, the transition between light and dark shades is seasonal, as people prefer a darker tone during fall and winter and lighter tones during Spring and Summer. There are plenty of hair styling dos and don'ts; here is a list of 6 don'ts for women over 50.
