Happy birthday Willow Smith! In honor of the star turning 23, see all of her best hair transformation photos, here.
Willow Smith has changed up her hairstyles quite a bit over the years, and she rocks each and every look to perfection! One of Willow’s most favored looks is her long braids, but she’s styled them quite a number of ways. From high ponytails to tight buns and more, Willow has slayed a number of different braided looks over the years. She’s also shaved her head twice, making for a majorly drastic makeover. Still, she pulled off the fierce buzzcut like a pro! She’s also dyed her hair various colors over the years – at one point, her buzzed hair was pink, and at another, her longer locks were silver. As she keeps getting older, we can’t wait to see what other looks she pulls off next! Keep clicking through the gallery to check out Willow’s hair evolution and see all the different looks she’s been photographed with in recent years.
