Avril Lavigne is embracing a look many fans remember fondly: her signature green hair. Earlier this month, the singer posted a series of vibrant photos showing off her new green locks. Accompanied by the caption, “Headlining @vanswarpedtour tonight! See you there @skylerbarberio,” Lavigne posed and twirled, giving fans a glimpse of her striking new hairstyle.
The bold green hair immediately sparked nostalgia among her followers, who recalled the “Smile” era from her 2011 album Goodbye Lullaby. During that period, Lavigne’s hair featured dark highlights, but she famously went green for the “Smile” music video. Many fans responded by sharing GIFs from the video, with some commenting, “Seeing your hair dyed green, the mind automatically remembers the song Smile. Those who understand will understand.”
Lavigne’s green hair is just one of many colorful looks she’s experimented with over the years. From platinum blonde to pink and even cheetah print, her hair has become a marker of her evolving style. In a past interview with ELLE Canada, she reflected on her hair’s role in her personal journey, saying, “My hair has been a marker of my evolution.”
