Celeb Hair: Play Your Part

Check out these star tress trendsetters and their shifting parts. Let us know which look you love most!
By Nicole Marie Melton · Updated October 28, 2020
01
Angela Simmons

Angela Simmons is known for being a tress chameleon. Even when she’s wearing a repeat style, she remixes her look by shifting her part.

Zoe Saldana

Zoe Saldana’s style is sleek, effortless and clean. The most she’ll do is add a few chunky curls or change her part from the center to the side. Do you have a preference on Saldana?

Garcelle Beauvais

Even a simple ponytail can take on a whole new life with a different part, as shown here by Garcelle Beauvais.  If you’re looking for a chic way to remix your pony, this is it!

Gabrielle Union

When it comes to hair, Gabrielle Union can do no wrong in our eyes. The glowing and gorgeous actress looks as equally stunning with her hair parted on the side and down the center, don’t you think?

Selita Ebanks

Going from a center to a side part is a simple mane move for Selita Ebanks.  After all, she’s endured her fair share of tress transformations during her modeling career. Which look do you love most?

Jennifer Hudson

J-Hud is another star who loves to switch up her style from time to time.  Here, the singer/actress/superwoman goes both ways in a center and side part. So chic!

Ciara

Ciara’s ash blonde, ombre hair color is head-turning in and of itself, but we also love how she loves to play with her part.  The side part lends itself to a more casual look, whereas the center part looks more dressy. Do you agree?

Tia Mowry

Tia Mowry has been in the spotlight since she was a young girl, so it’s no surprise she’s accustomed to changing up her hair. From a side part with blonde highlights, to a center part with dark, chunky curls, this new mom looks simply amazing.

Tika Sumpter

Tika Sumpter’s strong side part gives her a look a flirty vibe, while her middle part is classic Upper East Side cool. Which part do you prefer?
