It would be premature to declare it now, but there’s a good chance we’ll look back on Sydney Sweeney as the blonde bombshell of her generation. A significant portion of her public-appearance looks combine a certain Jayne-Mansfield-meets-Veronica-Lake allure with contemporary California girl vibes, and one of the key ingredients in that mien is her long, blonde hair.

And just as it’s been for a couple of years, her recent appearances have come with rather long hair, often styled with a textbook-perfect blowout. But just two days after the last time she was spotted with hair reaching down to the middle of her back, Sweeney has made it clear that she’s ready to start spring with a new hairstyle.
