Paris Jackson, daughter of the late pop legend Michael Jackson, spent much of her early life away from the public eye. However, after stepping into the spotlight as a teenager, she has gone through a series of bold and ever-changing hair transformations that reflect her evolving sense of style.
Now 27, Jackson is known for her willingness to try just about any hairstyle. Her go-to look often features her naturally curly hair in loose waves, matching her bohemian chic vibe. She has also been seen with messy top buns and sleek, slicked-back styles, always keeping her appearance fresh and expressive.
Her constant experimentation has sometimes come at a cost. In 2023, Jackson revealed on YouTube that excessive bleaching had severely damaged her hair. Trying to achieve a blonde shade through multiple salon visits, she struggled with lingering orange tones. “Long story short, my hair is super fried and dead,” she said candidly, adding that she now avoids using heat to allow her hair to recover. Showing off her natural curls, she told fans, “This is what it f***king looks like.”
Despite the damage, Jackson hasn’t shied away from dyeing her hair again. Her vibrant and fearless choices have cemented her reputation as a hair trendsetter.
At around 17, Jackson made a bold statement with bright red chunky streaks and toffee blonde highlights around her face, giving her a punk-inspired look. By 2017, she made a splash at the Grammys with a glowing blonde bob, styled in messy waves with a deep side part — a look straight out of the 1970s rock scene.
Her style isn’t just for the red carpet. In 2023, she brought her vibrant energy to the Bonnaroo stage, performing with striking purple hair. The royal shade seemed fitting, especially since she has a tattoo dedicated to Prince on her hand. With influences from both Prince and her father, Jackson has blended iconic inspirations into a look all her own.
Most recently, at Elton John’s Academy Awards Viewing Party in March, Jackson stunned with icy platinum blonde hair. The color, paired with her brushed-back style, gave off a fantasy-like vibe, reminiscent of a “Game of Thrones” Targaryen. The dramatic shade also flattered her cool-toned complexion and highlighted her strong cheekbones.
Paris Jackson continues to redefine her look with confidence, proving that for her, personal style is a canvas — one she’s not afraid to repaint again and again.
