Jacob Elordi Goes Blonde for Date Night

Jacob Elordi recently debuted a striking new blonde hair color, stepping away from his signature brunette look. He showcased this transformation during a casual date night with Kendall Jenner in New York City on November 7, 2026. The couple attended a Broadway show, with Elordi sporting a beanie that only partially concealed his lighter locks. His eyebrows also appeared to have been dyed a similar blonde shade.

This is not the first time Elordi has showcased a notable change in appearance for Jenner. Previously, in September 2026, he was seen with a goatee during a Los Angeles outing with her, though he has since returned to a clean-shaven look. Elordi has a history of undergoing extensive makeovers for his acting roles.

Notably, for his role in Guillermo del Toro's 2025 adaptation of Frankenstein, Elordi spent approximately 10 hours daily in makeup and prosthetics. Del Toro praised Elordi's grace and patience during this demanding process, which involved around 42 pieces of makeup. Elordi himself described the transformation as a 'metamorphosis,' where the performance began the moment he entered the makeup trailer.
