Julianne Hough
Even before the coronavirus pandemic forced us to go without professional salon services for months, Hough decided to take a chance and grow out her highlights to see what her natural hue looked like. " @JulesHough had NOT highlighted her hair for about 2 years (BEFORE quarantine made it a trend to grow you natural out 😜), because she wanted to 'just see' what her natural hair color would be. And well, it's freaking stunning. 💁🏼♀️," the star's colorist Riawna Capri wrote on Instagram.
After experimenting with her natural shade, the star decided it was time to add some highlights back in. "Now, we were ready to simply enhance her natural hair color with some sprinkles of sparkles of the babiest highlights throughout ✨✨✨," Capri added.

JENNIFER LOPEZ
Jennifer Lopez chopped off several inches for this shoulder-skimming lob. "We wanted to do something chic and classy that highlighted her features," says her pro Chris Appleton. He says this look is easiest if you have straight hair. "If your texture is curly, be prepared to take time to style it," Appleton says.
Sleekness with lots of shine is key for a look like J.Lo's, so invest in a quality flat iron, a heat protectant to keep hair healthy and Color Wow's EXTRA Shine Spray, which Appleton used on the star.

ZENDAYA
"We'd talked about doing it since last year," says Zendaya's hairstylist Ursula Stephen about this color she debuted at the Emmys. Red can be prone to fading, so keep the shade vibrant with a color-depositing conditioner.

Ashley Benson
The Pretty Little Liars actress just debuted a cool chocolate-brown color for fall. And according to her stylist, Brittany King, Benson goes to the salon to switch up her 'do on the regular.
"With prep for a upcoming role this fall, we traded her usual blonde for a rich darker brunette, which was inspired by Barbara Palvin's color on a recent red carpet," says Brittany King of Larry King Hair Salon in London. "We used some of her existing blonde as highlighted pieces, as well as added low lights with EQ Shades by Redken."
King finished Benson's color off with with a shiny gloss and used Larry King Social Life cream to nourish the hair after color. "I wanted it to be a multidimensional brunette and a color that best suited her skin tone," King adds.
