Angelina Jolie Turns 49 with a New Hair Color That Deeply Divided Fans: Photos

Angelina Jolie, the iconic Hollywood star and humanitarian is celebrating her 49th birthday on June 4, 2024. The actress recently caused quite a stir among fans with her latest hair transformation. She was spotted leaving her newly opened retail space, Atelier Jolie, with a fresh hairstyle that has fans divided.

Angelina Jolie recently looked stunning with her new hairdo. The movie star debuted blonde hair, which cascaded to her shoulders, adding a touch of elegance to her already striking features. Jolie wore chic specs, which complemented her sophisticated look, giving her a fresh and modern edge.

Fans have mixed feelings about Jolie's new hairdo. One fan said, "Blonde doesn't suit her!! Only brown hair is for her." Another fan chimed in, "Blonde is not flattering on her." But not everyone agrees. A user commented, "She looks gorg [sic] with both colors."

Then there's the debate on whether her new style ages her.“Her hair makes her look older,” said one fan. But there are those who think differently. Another fan argued, "It covers the gray hair better and looks less harsh."

Angelina Jolie was seen accessorizing her blonde locks with a designer bag featuring a quote from one of her movies, "Girl, Interrupted". The bag, adorned with the words "Some I've seen. Some never again. But there isn't a day my heart doesn't find them," is a subtle nod to the character of Susanna from the film.

Pictures of Jolie's new hair were taken as she exited Atelier Jolie, the retail space she recently opened in New York City's SoHo district. Atelier Jolie is a testament to Jolie's commitment to ethical and sustainable fashion.

The space serves as a hub for collaboration, featuring tailoring and upcycling services alongside a gallery showcasing the work of local artisans. Additionally, the cafe within the store is run in partnership with refugee organizations, further highlighting Jolie's dedication to social causes.

Jolie tried to create a space where creativity and community intersect, where individuals can express themselves authentically without succumbing to trends. As she explains, "I don’t want to be a big fashion designer. I want to build a house for other people to become that."

"I've met a lot of artisans over the years—very capable, talented people—and I'd like to see them grow," added Jolie. Her list of collaborators includes London-based milliner Justin Smith, American artist Duke Riley, and South African lacemaker Pierre Fouche.

Jolie's recent hairstyle transformation, along with the launch of her new business, signifies the start of a new chapter for the iconic actress. While fans are debating about her new look, she remains committed to fostering sustainable fashion and community-driven initiatives.
