28 Lady Gaga Hairstyles You'll Always Think About

A woman with hairstyles so iconic that the internet is filled with her looks tutorials.

If you ask who the powerhouses in the music industry are, everyone's minds will fall on a few, and Lady Gaga is definitely one of them.

She's the hit. A singer, songwriter, dancer, great performer, and actress. The pop icon who doesn't just wear out a style but embodies the whole look and concept.

Being in the game for more than two decades has made her a master of looks that are both experimental and evolutionary. For different eras and albums, Gaga has had a whole new hairstyle that reflects the mood. At this moment, she's no longer just defining characters; she’s also rocking the classics like updos, soft waves, and bun styles.

See some of her glamorous moments and eccentric looks in this article. I bet her unique twist makes them all unforgettable.

If you love how Lady Gaga infuses creativity into her hairstyles, here are 28 of Lady Gaga’s creative hairstyles you can recreate:

1. Marilyn-Inspired Blonde

Starting simple with her Marilyn-inspired blonde, Lady Gaga wore a shoulder-length lob with waves for the 2016 Oscars. This has been one of her favorite looks as of late, and I can already tell why. The sleek back look makes you focus on the waves while also showcasing the facial features.

2. Bird Nest Hair

At the Brit Awards in 2010, Lady Gaga wore a bird nest hairdo, paying tribute to the late fashion designer Alexander McQueen. She adorned her huge blonde wig with a net, covering not just the hair but part of her face. This was quite flamboyant, making it the story of the night.

3. Dramatic Brown Hairdo

Lady Gaga opted for a brown updo with fringe at the Lady Gaga "Fame" Perfume Launch in September 2012. The top knot was extremely high, and the blunt fringe matched her outfit for the day.

4. Big Hair Bow

Leave it to Lady Gaga to make it more tasteful. Her hair bow was quite popular back in the day, as she rocks it with different hairstyles. Here, she paired the bow with a blonde straight hairstyle with bangs.

5. Updo with Blue Streaks

This updo reminds me of Elsa, the Snow Queen in the animated film “Frozen”. The blue streaks were carefully added to her platinum strands, giving her hair the perfect contrast to her brows. It was a “royal” night for her, especially with her accessories to match her fit.

6. Long, Black Hairstyle with Blunt Micro Bangs(Hime Cut)

Lady Gaga went for a long, jet black look with blunt micro bangs, and I love her in her black hair era. With layers added around her face to complement the micro-blunt bangs, the look was perfect for something eccentric yet also calm.

7. Platinum Bob

Do you remember Lady Gaga's iconic short platinum bob? It made an exaggerated statement at that time, and it still does to this day.

8. Lady Gaga's Cherry Red Hair

Lady Gaga opted for red cherry hair for her appearance at the premiere of the film Joker: Folie à Deux in Los Angeles. Her slightly darker red roots became lighter as the strands reached the ends. This made her look even more phenomenal, matching her outfit and necklace.

9. Short Wavy Hair

Well, the singer isn't about to go overboard with her look here. She went for short, simple, wavy black hair, and I love how the parting wasn't extremely by the side or in the middle of her head. Everything about the look, the fullness, the waves, and parting added the extra little details to the style to give it a glamorous look.

10. Rolled updo with Face Framing Pieces

The rolled updo with face-framing pieces has got to be one of the most incredible Gaga looks to date. These brushed side tresses and the slightly tall knot are just an epitome of mastery. The loose waves of the face-framing pieces also couldn't go unnoticed.

11. Teal Bob

Lady Gaga donned a teal bob for another bold look. The short hair sat around her chin, and the blunt bangs above her eyebrows.

12. Yellow and Pink Hair

Lady Gaga dyed her hair two different colors, one side yellow and the other pink. This is a switch that isn't surprising, considering her love for bold looks, yet it's still quite distinct from all other looks.

13. Multicolored

Lady Gaga has also gone for a multicolored ponytail. Think of purple, orange, pink, and blonde. The long, huge, pastel shades ponytail stood out against her gorgeous black outfit at the airport in Japan.

14. Lady Gaga's Light Blonde Hairstyle

The singer didn't skimp on showing her bold makeup to match her light blonde hairstyle at Brandon Maxwell's debut fashion show in 2015. I've got to admit that many of her looks are still very relevant today. So, you can recreate this light blonde hairstyle for an incredible style.

15. Short Hair with Bangs

Here is Lady Gaga with another black hairstyle. Although she doesn't wear black hair often, I love how black hair complements her so well. You can keep yours fun, too, by adding bangs and a hat, just like she did, or keep it simple.

16. Long, Wavy Style with a Deep Side Part

Dark roots with icy platinum blonde? Count Lady Gaga in. She opted for long hair in the silver shade, adding waves to the ends to complement her somewhat gothic makeup.

For this look, if your roots are already dark, that's good, just bleach mid-lengths to the ends of your strands to achieve the style. If not, you'll need to dye your roots black first before achieving the blonde.

17. Lady Gaga Light Blonde Hairstyle with Bangs

When Lady Gaga wore the light blonde hairstyle with bangs at the MusiCares Pre-Grammy Gala 11 years ago, the main focus was her health. But it's still a hairdo that didn't disappoint. Trim every 4 weeks to renew your look. You can easily style daily and slay effortlessly.

18. Vintage-inspired Swept-back Silver Hair

With this style, Lady Gaga proved you don't have to wear an elaborate high-updo to get noticed. Her vintage-inspired swept-back silver style got everyone's attention just fine. She was totally channeling herself for this look, and I am here for it. Finish up with hairspray for hold and some pins to keep it intact.

19. Voluminous Curly Look

It's not just the hair; it's her bleached brows, heavy eyeshadow, minimal lipstick, and glitter that make up the whole look. I immediately gasped after seeing the style because it's bold, iconic, and tells a story.

If you want to recreate the look, make sure to stick to using wigs. You can easily achieve the style by adding streaks of pink to the blonde hair.

20. Lady Gaga's Updo with a Bird Hat

This was one of her most dramatic moments. Beneath the bird hat is an intricate updo style achieved with extensions to create more drama for the hairpiece.

21. Bubble Braid

Nothing about Lady Gaga's looks is regular. You can style yours the way she did.

Simply brush your bangs to the front and roll your hair to the center part. Also, brush the back towards the same part, then pack your hair to the side. Make sure it doesn't sit at the center but on your left or right side. Take some strands of hair extensions to cover the hair band. Now, use some hair bands to hold your ponytail at intervals to form the bubbles.

22. Lady Gaga's Honey Blonde Hairdo with Accessories

I can't stop admiring the pink and white accessories the singer used to adorn her hair here. They perfectly made her brown tresses shine.

When styling yours, it will be best if you go for loose waves. Make sure your hair isn't too wavy or straight, then you can get your hair accessories afterwards and attach them to your strands.

23. Half Up, Half Down

Lady Gaga's half-up, half-down look is hands down a favorite in my books. I simply love how her blonde tresses contrasted against her black outfit and hat. The middle part for the half-up section and the way the hair was pinned at the middle get the look going. We can agree that it is an easy Gaga look to style.

This was another big, bold, and beautiful hairstyle for the icon. It was a look for her historic performance in New York, 2019. The style had a metallic shine achieved by spraying layers of shimmer and glaze onto the hair. Though it is not easy to recreate, you can definitely achieve it with the right tools.

26. Abracadabra Hairstyle

Well, everyone wants to recreate her hairstyle after seeing it in her 'Abracadabra' MV. Let's check the video on how to achieve this.

27. Fishtail Braid
