On the one hand, you want to update your look, but not drastically. The desire for transformation, even just a little, is there. So what to do? There are plenty of ways to make small but impactful changes to your hair this summer, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/about\/dakota-johnson\" target=\"_blank\">Johnson<\/a> just demonstrated.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, the <em>Time<\/em> 100 Gala drew celebrities like Claire Danes, Ethan Hawke, and Kate Hudson, but Johnson undoubtedly stood out from the rest due to the subtle changes she\u2019s made to her hair. The actor already boasts one of the most envied manes in Hollywood with her long brunette strands and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/story\/dakota-johnson-halo-fringe-fall-2025\" target=\"_blank\">distinctive bangs<\/a>. However, on April 23, she debuted a few minor adjustments that updated her look without going overboard.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The first and most obvious change is her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/gallery\/best-bangs-for-your-face-shape\" target=\"_blank\">bangs<\/a>. Johnson has gone from long <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/story\/curtain-bangs-hairstyle-trend\" target=\"_blank\">curtain bangs<\/a> to a choppier style with an uneven finish. Although they still maintain an arched shape that\u2019s longer at the sides than in the center, her bangs now fall above her eyebrows in a daring, carefree way that suits her well.<\/li>\n<li>On the other hand, another striking change is her hair color. The actor has added <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/story\/hot-honey-blonde-hair-color-trend\" target=\"_blank\">honey-blonde highlights<\/a> that give her brunette hair a golden finish. Simply put, Johnson is blonder than ever. She opted for a subtle <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glamour.com\/gallery\/best-balayage-hair-color-ideas\" target=\"_blank\">balayage<\/a>, a technique that creates very natural-looking highlights while maintaining her hair\u2019s natural tone.<\/li>\n<li>And finally, she\u2019s also had a haircut. While Johnson still has long hair, you can see she\u2019s added layers that give it more movement. The most noticeable changes are the layers closest to her face, where you can really see how much she\u2019s cut.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure>\n<p><span><picture><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image may contain Dakota Johnson Head Person Face Dimples Happy Smile Hair Highlighted Hair and Photography\" loading=\"lazy\"   src=\"https:\/\/media.glamour.com\/photos\/69ee414147a293edd456a14b\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/2272840341\"><\/picture><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><\/p>\n<p>Dakota Johnson attends the 2026 <em>Time<\/em> 100 Gala at Jazz at Lincoln Center on April 23, 2026.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><span>Kevin Mazur\/Getty Images<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div data-journey-hook=\"grid-wrapper\" data-testid=\"BodyWrapper\">\n<p>The lesson is simple: There are plenty of ways to change up your look without taking too many risks and still get noticeable and flattering results.
