When it comes to hair, there’s something to be said about sticking to what you know works. I mean, when you finally find your perfect hair color or shampoo and conditioner duo, why change it? However, as much as we value committing to what works, we also love to see amazing hair transformations. From celebrity hair transformations to hair color and cut before and after videos created by some of our favorite stylists, major (or subtle) mane changes are so exciting to see.
