Mandy Moore dyed her hair blonde, and it’s giving us “Princess Diaries” vibes

Dreary mid-winter days are still upon us, so we’ve been looking for ways to lift our spirits and find our own sunshine. That’s why we’re taking a cue from Mandy Moore’s book. The This is Us actress just dyed her hair blonde, and it’s giving us Princess Diaries flashbacks.

Everyone’s favorite TV sweetheart added golden blonde highlights to her brown locks, giving her style a lovely, fresh look. Nothing says spring is coming like embracing hair that’s a bit lighter and brighter. Stylist extraordinaire Ashley Streicher (one-third of the Streicher sisters) is responsible for Mandy’s new haircut, while Tracey Cunningham provided the color. Fun fact: Tracey also dyed Jessica Biel’s hair blonde.

We are definitely adding Mandy’s new color to our spring Pinterest board.

If you’re looking for either hair color or cut inspo, you don’t need to look any further.

We love that as soon as Mandy wrapped up her season on This Is Us, she went to the hair salon for a fresh new ‘do.

Though she’s obviously adorable no matter how her hair looks, we have to say that looking at her ’90s blonde pictures takes us down memory lane. We’re especially loving that her current blond ‘do makes her look like her Princess Diaries character.

Mandy’s new hair color feels fresh and different from what she’s done in the past, and we’re excited to see what other hairstyles the actress rocks next.
