Want to feel cool for the summer? So do your favorite stars.
Everyone from Pamela Anderson to Julianne Moore has emerged with a fresh new look, so if you're also feeling the heat, we've got plenty of great haircut photos for you to pick from.
Anderson, who was recently announced as the new face of Biolage in her very first hair campaign, debuted her new short style at the Tory Burch Foundation Honors Martha Stewart at 2025 Founders Breakfast. The chop had its first major red carpet moment at the 2025 Met Gala, where the Last Showgirl actress dazzled in an embellished Tory Burch gown.
The star told PEOPLE that the hair switch-up was a last minute decision inspired by the gown.
"It felt very female, warrior princess," Anderson said of the moment. "I felt when I was walking in that dress, something came over me. That's the thing that we all crave and look for when we're creating characters, but also coming into ourselves. It felt like a magical, really powerful moment for me to feel so exposed and vulnerable, but so strong."
