Elizabeth Olsen is embracing the latest summer hair trend—balayage. After bringing back her signature bangs last November, the actress has switched up her look once again. Olsen recently stepped out in London to support Julia McDermott in Weather Girl, showcasing her new hairstyle, which features long, tousled waves that transition seamlessly from dark brown roots to a warm caramel hue at the ends.
Her look, paired with wispy French bangs and a center part, evokes the beauty trends of 1960s and 1970s style icons like Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot. This hairstyle further solidifies the boho chic revival, a trend that seems to be here to stay.
Olsen, who has strong roots in theater, has always been drawn to the bohemian aesthetic. In a 2021 interview with Jess Cagle, the actress explained how her love for musical theater began at a young age. “I was a dancer and I loved musical theatre,” she shared. “It started when I was seven, and there was this musical theater camp in the Valley. A bunch of my friends and I would do it every summer. That was my core group of friends.”
The Avengers star also credited her sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, for sparking her interest in boho style. “Everything my sisters have ever worn in my entire life I have wanted to wear still as an adult today,” she said. “I want their coats. I want their shoes. I want their dresses. And that’s something I never grew out of.”
Olsen’s latest hairstyle and her boho chic fashion choices highlight a blend of timeless elegance and modern-day nostalgia.
