Kim Kardashian is ditching her dark hair for blonde yet again!
In a Friday, Aug. 15, Instagram post, the Kardashians star, 44, shared a photo that showed her in the process of getting her hair styled. Instead of her natural glossy, dark locks she’s been rocking as of late, Kardashian’s hair is now an ash blonde with root shadow.
The SKIMS founder’s hair was half styled into loose braids and had a silver clip to keep a section of her hair in place. Kardashian puckered her lips and gave the camera a smoldering look.
“About that time,” she captioned the image, adding a blonde-haired woman emoji.

Kardashian has gone blonde several times over the past few years. In 2024, she sported a bright platinum blonde shade for the Met Gala to celebrate the opening of the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

She paired the platinum blonde hair with a sheer Margiela by John Galliano dress featuring a lace train with floral accents. The dress also had a silver corset that shrank her waist by several inches.
In 2023, Kardashian surprised fans by briefly going honey blonde at the GQ Men of the Year event.

She wore the honey blonde hair parted down the middle and styled straight, allowing the hair to hang down to the middle of her back. She coupled the transformation with a chocolate brown Chrome Hearts halter-neck dress.
The 2022 Met Gala saw Kardashian going platinum blonde yet again, this time, to channel Marilyn Monroe for the opening of the “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
She wore her hair slicked back into a tight bun and wore the exact dress that Monroe wore while singing “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to John F. Kennedy for his 45th birthday in 1962.
In her sister Kylie Jenner’s Married to the Met video, Kardashian revealed that the platinum blonde transformation took her 14 hours to achieve. Her hairstylist, Chris Appleton, later told Vogue that the hair change was also done to honor Monroe.
“The hair look was simple to highlight the platinum color, giving the hair color and dress the attention,” Appleton told the outlet at the time. “I wanted it to be iconic to Marilyn, but also iconic to Kim when she has her blonde moment.”
