Who’s that girl? It’s Zooey Deschanel with curly blonde hair.

The New Girl alum is the latest celeb to debut a new hairstyle before the summer season begins.

A couple of days ago, Deschanel, 43, posted two mirror photos on her Instagram page. The first snap shows the actress (who was previously a brunette) taking a mirror selfie in what appears to be a trailer dressing room, and her voluminous blonde locks are on full display.

In the second photo, Deschanel is doing the same thing, but only this time, she strikes a pose and smiles at the camera. As for the caption, the 500 Days of Summer alum simply wrote, “Who’s she?”

Her followers practically ran to the comments section to gush over her new hairstyle (which may or may not be a wig). One fan commented, “Who’s that girllllllll?” referring to a line in the New Girl’s show theme song. Another chimed in and said, “Giving me Olivia Newton-John vibes!”

This surprise hair transformation comes after actress Reese Witherspoon, 48, also unveiled a new look of her own: wispy blonde bangs. The Little Fires Everywhere star shared a selfie on Instagram, where she is standing next to a gigantic white magnolia flower.

Her fans were quick to point out the mother of three is now sporting new bangs. In the caption, Witherspoon wrote, “I love the South,” along with a white heart emoji. 

Zooey, we are loving this new blonde look.
