What you need to know
Kris Jenner looks amazing, babe.
In a new joint post shared to Instagram on Wednesday, Oct. 8, the 69-year-old mommy and style icon debuted a dramatic glamorous transformation with Chris Appleton, hairstylist to the stars, who took her from decades of brunette to platinum blonde.
The clip, simply captioned “Blondie,” begins with a makeup-free Jenner sitting in a styling chair with a white towel wrapped around her hair and a plain brown zip-up hoodie, while Appleton, 42, stands next to her mixing dye in a bowl to create the perfect color.
“Wait, wait a minute,” Jenner interjected while listening to Sabrina Carpenter’s “When Did You Get Hot?”

Appleton then performed her part of the song, lip-syncing to the pop star and saying, “You got it? Here we come!”
Jenner then covered the camera with her hand. Appleton rotated her chair as she put it back together, creating a seamless pre- and post-transition movement that showed off her brand new look and chic all-black outfit.
Celebrity makeup artist Ash K. Holm, who was also tagged in the post, commented, “Wow she looks amazing,” with a heart eye emoji, adding, “We did it!!!”
Holm wasn’t the only one to comment on Jenner’s bold new style.
“I’m going to take what she has,” one fan wrote. “Is she 30 now? Great job and so much fun, wow, they’re both gorgeous as always!!!” another added.
The video ended with Jenner and Appleton smiling and posing for a few more seconds as Carpenter’s chorus played.
Jenner has gone blonde several times, including a pixie cut to ring in the New Year in January 2018 and a blonde bob for the Met Gala the following year.
But she’s been the talk of the style world lately, ever since she attended Lauren Sanchez’s star-studded bachelorette party in Paris in May looking much younger.
Shortly after, PEOPLE confirmed that the media mogul, who has been open about her cosmetic procedures in the past, had undergone aesthetic improvements from New York City plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen Levine.
Exactly what she did with Dr. Levine has not been confirmed, but the doctor’s website says he “specializes in enhancing the natural appearance of the face, breasts, and body.”

Facial surgery can cost more than $45,000 during the coronavirus lockdown, a popular doctor tells PEOPLE in 2020.
“First of all, you have to do what makes you feel good,” Jenner said on a 2015 episode of “Good Work.” “You can’t do something just because someone wants you to do it. And you have to do plenty of research on the doctor you choose.”

When PEOPLE caught up with Appleton last month, he joked that his entire TikTok is “a Kris Jenner fan account at this point,” adding, “I’m obsessed with her.”
In an interview on September 13th, he also expressed his opinion on the businessman’s refreshing style that deserves to be talked about.
“I really love that she’s making a comeback like this and living her best life. I’m all for reinventing yourself at any age, and right now I think she’s the queen of doing that,” Appleton tells PEOPLE.
