Early Years

Before entering the acting and music industry,
Ariana wore her hair in its natural black colour and
either curly or straight.

2010 - 2013
While playing Cat Valentine on the show Victorious
and later Sam & Cat, Grande had to dye her hair a
bright red color approximately every week. This
damaged it severely and destroyed her natural
curly hair texture. Ariana only recovered her
healthy, natural hair texture in 2020. At the end of
2012, Ariana started to darken her red color, slowly
moving on from the bright red.

Late 2013
In 2013, Ariana began to wear her hair in a light
brown color and a curly half-high ponytail. This
style was often accessorized with a headband
from time to time, that was also when Grande was
wearing a lot of extensions because her hair was
so damaged because of the years at Nickelodeon.
However, she once wore her hair down for a live
performance

2014 - 2015
This time was a major transitional phase for
Grande's hair journey. In fact, she started to wear a
lighter hair color, a light brown with subtle blonde
highlights at the ends. She slowly abandoned her
former "Yours Truly era" curly ponytail for the iconic
one we all know. This speciQc ponytail style was
what characterized Ariana at the time, often paired
with the famous cat ears headband. She
continued introducing her fanbase by channeling
this ponytail for the "Break Free" and "Bang Bang"
videos. In "Love Me Harder", Ariana debuted her
hair down and in "One Last Time", we saw her
iconic ponytail for the second time.

2016 - 2017
Ahead of Grande's third album Dangerous Woman,
Grande started to wear a straight ponytail and she
later cut her bangs, very representative of that
period of time. Grande also had ombré hair at some
point in 2016. In 2017 when she was on tour,
Grande started to wear the space buns hairstyle
repeatedly, paired with her bangs and straight hair.
She last wore her bangs in the show in Tulsa

Late 2017 - 2018
At the end of 2017, Ariana debuted her platinum
hair as well as her long, mermaid-like platinum hair
down. During most of her appearances with her
platinum hair, Grande wore extensions and
sometimes wigs to preserve the state of her
already damaged hair. Grande wore her iconic long
platinum straight ponytail. In the spring of 2018,
Grande also wore a lavender wig during a press
day out in New York City, a hair color she also wore
during her 2018 surprise Coachella performance.

Late 2018
After a few months with her platinum hair, Ariana
decided to go back to a brunette color and
introduce her very famous ponytail she kept up
until the Sweetener World Tour. At this point,
Grande was only wearing a clip-on ponytail as she
started the process to gain back healthy hair. Right
before shooting the "Thank U, Next" video, Grande
cut her hair to a lob (shoulder length).

2019 - Early 2020
With the release of her Qfth album and her third
world tour, Grande carried on the extra long and
straight ponytail she introduced in late 2018. This
hairstyle was very convenient for Ariana as she
could perform easily with this ponytail while still
protecting her natural hair underneath the fake
ponytail. During her headlining performance at
Coachella 2019, Grande wore a ponytail by the
famous wigmaker, WhatWigs.

2020
When lockdown started, Grande quarantined in her
L.A home and showcased her natural hair for the
Qrst time since 2018. In fact, she Qnally succeeded
to recover her original curly, dark brown hair color
and texture. This allowed Ariana to wear far fewer
extensions.

2021 - 2022
Just like she did in 2020, Grande continued to take
care of her hair and she started to wear her
signature ponytail in a revamped way. In fact, she
adapted the ponytail to her shorter hair length,
with a more 60s style. She also wore it with a sleek
look, using Alyx Liu's Útiles Beauty brand.

Late 2022 - 2024
Grande temporarily moved to London, United
Kingdom for the shooting of the Wicked Movies in
which she will star as Glinda. For the role, Grande
dyed her hair blonde on October 21, 2022 and
introduced her blonde hair via. Instagram on
October 26, 2022. Grande also bleached her
eyebrows to Qt Glinda's physical appearance better.
During Spring 2023, she started to experiment
with her hairstyles. She tried blonde curly hair,
blonde buns, blonde bangs or blonde braids.
Around early 2024, Grande wore a brown wig for
"The Boy Is Mine" music video. Alyx liu liked a
comment under their post asking if ariana was on
another hair journey.
