Sandra Bullock Might Be Hollywood’s Most Low-Key Hair Chameleon

This voluminous lob haircut on Sandra Bullock shaped the actor’s face so perfectly — looking at this image it’s hard to imagine her in any other hairstyle. The wavy layers add so much depth to the cut while the softly rounded edges add a “girl next door” innocence that is just so ‘90s.

Every starlette had this hairstyle at least once in the ‘90s but Bullock just may have worn it best. The clavicle-length cut was so simple yet so captivating. Not to mention the thin ‘90s brows really pull this whole nostalgic look together.

Bullock’s been working her glossy brunette side-part for years, as evidenced by this vintage shot from the late ‘90s. Her piece-y, flipped-out bob and grunge-inspired makeup was (and still is) a massive hit.

In a high-hoisted ponytail, fun frosted eyeshadow, and a corset gown, Bullock would look just as at home on a yacht on the Italian Rivera as she did on the red carpet. The style is playful, flirty, and altogether fantastic.

A rare departure from her usual deep brunette color, this caramel-highlighted warm brown shade adds the most radiant glow to Bullock’s bronzed cheeks.

For the Oscar ceremony in which she’d win Best Actress for The Blind Side — arguably her biggest career moment to date — Bullock opted for timeless glamour hair stylists will be referring to for years to come. Plus, her very deep side-part adds just enough Old Hollywood appeal.

When Bullock wears red, expect great things. For this event, her hair is pulled back into a complicated, tousled twist with plenty of volume at the front for an almost punk-inspired take on an otherwise classically glamorous look.

The devil’s in the details with this red-tinged, side-swept twist look. Featuring a tiny braid and some artful layering, Bullock’s textured style is footloose and so fun.

Bullock’s dabbled with bangs several times over the past few decades, but this lash-skimming style, tousled and piece-y against her stick-straight highlights, might be her best version — so far, anyway.

Sleek and chic were the operative words for Bullock’s Bird Box premiere in 2018 — and the slash of gardenia-red lipstick, chosen to match her gown, cements the entire thing. Her collarbone-grazing lob, though, could elevate just about any ensemble.

Most recently, at her latest premiere for the film The Unforgivable, Bullock added some rich glossy depth by opting for a dark espresso shade punctuated by warmer, lighter highlights. Tousled waves and a center part make the entire look especially modern, too.
