‘It Suits You’: Halle Berry Debuts Funky New Hair Color Ahead of 56th Birthday

Halle Berry debuted a new hair color over the weekend, posting two selfies featuring her naturally curly hair. For the past few weeks, the Oscar-winning actress has been rocking a short asymmetrical haircut with the back shaved underneath. Fans did a double take after noticing she recently dyed her hair from platinum blonde to a soft purple

The soon-to-be 56-year-old looked away in the first photo while smiling directly into the camera in the second. She wore a black shirt and two necklaces, with one featuring a heart-shaped pendant. In the caption, she wrote, “I know I look like I’m doing nothing, but my hair is quite busy.”

Fans in Berry’s comments were equally stunned by her beauty and vibrant hair color. Many shared dozens of fire and red heart emojis, while others verbally complimented the actress, who turns 56 on Sunday, Aug. 14.

“You are always doing something that I know.”

“The color is popping!”

“It may be busy, but it’s pretty.”

I love the purple!!! It suits you.”

“Looking good! You can rock any style!”

From short and curly to long and wavy, the “B.A.P.S.” star is known to switch up her look and fans are loving her latest hairstyle. As a queen of the short hair game since the 1990s, many also noted how trendsetting her short hairstyles have become.

One person said, “We like the short cut. The “Halle Berry” cut.” Another said, “Loving your new hair color and style. Meanwhile, a third person commenting wrote, “Get it gurl!! That face and energy can pull off any look!! Gorgeous.”

Berry first shared photos of her funky and bold hairstyle last week featuring her recently dyed platinum blonde hair. Before the curls, her hair was straightened into what she calls her “kinda classy, kinda hood” look on Instagram. According to other photos, the “Bruised” actress is currently on vacation but she has yet to reveal her exact location. On Thursday, July 28, she captioned a photo of herself with the sunset and the ocean in the background, “Back in my happy place.” A week later, the actress shared another photo of the sunset featuring the silhouette of her 8-year-old son, Maceo Robert Martinez. Her 14-year-old daughter, Nahla Ariela, was not pictured in the photos.
