Jada Pinkett Smith is making the most out of Virgo season [1]. On 18 Sept., the actor and talk show host kicked off her 52nd birthday with a brand new colour, dyeing her hair a subtle shade of rose gold [2]. "This ain't noth'n but a birthday sherbet surprise within a Virgo sunrise," she captioned the post, posing for a celebratory selfie. In true Virgo fashion, Pinkett Smith ensured her minimalistic birthday nails matched her new sunrise-inspired palette perfectly. Pink toned makeup served as the finishing touch, complementing the rosiness of her hair, and creating a cohesive look.
Pinkett Smith's colour of choice is a more neutral take on your typical pink hair dye [3]. Apart from the beautiful colour, this birthday hair also marked a beauty milestone. In December 2021, Pinkett Smith revealed her alopecia diagnosis [4] — an autoimmune disorder that can lead to hair loss — and shared candid updates about her relationship with her hair [5]. She explained that her alopecia is something she tries to embrace rather than hide, telling her followers she plans on embellishing a few of her patches with rhinestones. "I'm just gonna make me a little crown — that's what Mama's gonna do," she said. "Me and this alopecia are going to be friends . . . period!"
Since then, Pinkett Smith has shown her hair growth on social media, culminating in her rose gold birthday hair. "This here hair is act'n like it's try'n a make a come back," she wrote in August, when her hair was still platinum blonde. "Still have some trouble spots but — we'll see." Rest assured she'll try any hair colour her heart desires. See the full Virgo sunrise below.
