Ombré color pairs well with Victoria’s Secret-length hair, but the look also complements shorter styles like no other. With a cropped hairdo, the gradient starts at your temples and the lightened, bottom half of your hair will accentuate your cheekbones. It’s a built-in highlighter that rivals Fenty Beauty’s Trophy Wife. Click through to see how Beyoncé, Kiernan Shipka, and more of your favorite celebs wear their chopped styles in faded perfection, here.
Miley Cyrus
Two thumbs up for ombré that’s more dip-dyed tips than gradual fade. (Love the combo of chestnut brown and snowy platinum, too.)
Ciara
The gorgeous ombré with chunky amber blonde highlights frames the singer’s face just so.
Ashley Benson
Benson has rocked an ombré for a long time now, recently changing up the look with a fresh, shoulder-skimming cut.
Busy Philipps Dyed Michelle Williams’ Hair Pink
Vanessa Hudgens
Hudgens’ ombré has three colors and nicely goes from black to brown to blonde.
Jessica Alba
Alba wears her shoulder-grazing cut with a flattering ombré dyed with golden undertones.
Beyoncé
Queen Bey’s faded bob swiftly transitions from her dark roots into to a honeyed blonde at the crown of her head.
From root to tips, Shipka went for an ashy gradient that compliments her cool-toned complexion.
Hilary Duff
This wearable look from Hilary Duff fades from her natural blonde into a buttery yellow.
Kat Graham
Graham’s hair is a prime example of the ombré look: Her brunette roots softly fade into a smokey blonde
Emilia Clarke Just Dyed Her Hair Khaleesi Blonde
Jourdan Dunn
Dunn’s caramel ombré is made even more dramatic with this glam bob. To get the same look, curl both sides in the same direction with the ends flipped upward.
Vanessa Hudgens
Hudgens’ ombré hair is accented with face-framing toffee highlights.
Emilia Clarke
Clarke nails a winning combination: beach waves and sun-kissed ombré.
