Coachella is a place where fashion, makeup, style, and hair trends that’ve been brewing online reveal themselves IRL. As someone who was waiting for influencers to post their looks, I stayed up into the late hours watching the live stream to see the latest looks. Here are some of my favorite hairstyles from Coachella.

Carlacia Grant Instagram

This playful + attention to detail hairstyle is pulled off effortlessly by Carlacia Grant from Outer Banks. Vivid colors, Coke bottle silhouettes, and desert resistant style is giving us all the envy. If I had patience and rubber band hair ties, I would wear my hair like this daily.

 Charli D'Amelio Instagram

Blonde, elegantly disheveled, and a total refresh from what we have typically seen from Charli compared to her long dark hair. This bob length has also been a popular hair trend this 2023. We love this trend and this dramatic change for her.

Shay Mitchell Instagram

Shay's hair is pulled back into a sleek updo that looks girly, classy, and summer-ready all in one. The curly updo is an elevated take on posh but y2k core. Shay Mitchell can do no wrong, and neither can her stylist.

Alessandra Ambrosio Instagram

When in Coachella, do as the Romans do. A stark change from her classic VS runway appearance, Alessandra Ambrosio rolled up to the desert festival of the year with multi-colored accent pops and hues. Her hair makes us think “Victoria-who?” while making us revel in the bohemian festival realness.

Waves, volume, and length were all in attendance when Zendaya stepped out to surprise the audience with Labyrinth on stage. Zendaya's hair is the definition of goals with the drastic hair change from the wavy bob she's been seen rocking.
