Pics Of Ali Larter's Hair To Take To Your Next Salon Appointment
Since breaking into Hollywood as the popular cheerleader Darcy Sears in the 1999 film "Varsity Blues," Ali Larter has had a complete transformation, which included some of the most enviable hairstyles. Known for her striking blond hair, the "Landman" star has that laid-back, California vibe and often sports messy, undone waves that are upping the ante on beachy looks. However, Larter is not just one-note when it comes to her locks. She's played around with different styles, such as a tousled updo perfect for summer nights, and has even rocked various hair colors.
With so many of her effortless looks, it's hard not to race to the salon for a copy of Larter's 'dos. The good news is that many of her coiffures are so easy to DIY with a curling wand, but if you love the buttery hue of the actor's hair, we suggest going to a pro to get that multi-dimensional finish. Larter has color expert Tracey Cunningham to thank for her gorgeous mane, which has been dubbed "First Wife Blonde," per Country Living. The mom of two has given us so much hair inspo over the years that we can't pick just one look to recreate, which is so not a problem in our book.
Ali Larter's undone waves were perfect for the beach
Ali Larter looked like a beam of sunshine with her icy blond locks done in relaxed curls while at the Newport Beach TV Fest in 2025. It was the perfect look for an event taking place right by the water, with Larter giving total mermaid vibes. The deep side part was reminiscent of the Y2K era, and it served to show off all the intricate highlights in her hair. This is one style we're wearing on repeat all summer, and we don't care if Gen Z still thinks side parts are out.
Ali Larter's messy updo is the answer for a casual date
If you're going to a casual event but want a simple updo, look no further than the slightly disheveled chignon Ali Larter wore to the 2026 Newport Beach TV Fest repping "Landman." With the crown teased for some height and loose tendrils falling to her nape, she looked like the ultimate cool girl. Larter kept hers simple, but you can elevate your next updo with a chic hair comb. Just slide it into the top of the knot, or slip the comb just above the nape of your neck for a pretty adornment.
Ali Larter was ahead of the quiet luxury trend with her rich mom bob
Ali Larter proved that bobs are the way to channel the rich mom aesthetic when she rocked a shorter cut at the Art of Elysium event in 2018. The slight waves gave her hair some body and highlighted the multi-dimensional colors woven throughout. Larter went for a 2000s money piece that softly framed her face and gave her side part extra oomph. She also gave the look a bit of edge with choppy ends for a subtle rock star appeal. After all, rich mom bobs can be cool as well.
Ali Larter's shiny copper color is total hair goals
Ali Larter ditched her blond locks for a copper shade in 2015 to reprise her role as Claire Redfield in the final "Resident Evil" installment. This was the third time she underwent the dramatic color transformation, and she must have loved the fiery shade, as she rocked the look on the red carpet at the Art of Elysium gala the following year. Larter soon went back to blond, however, telling People, "It's almost embarrassing being this blonde again. Redheads are cooler and more under the radar — if you can believe that!"
Ali Larter's wispy bangs will leave you obsessed
After years of wearing long, side-swept bangs, Ali Larter debuted a shorter set with choppy ends, which she showed off at a screening of "Obsessed" in 2009. The peekaboo style just grazed her browbones, while the sides gradually fell past the temples. This breezy chop was quite a departure from her usual side-part, and we love how the bangs brought out her amazing cheekbones. Bangs can be tricky to wear, but with Larter's bone structure, she can pull off any hairstyle.
Ali Larter gave major boss energy with her slicked-back hair
Ali Larter plays the strong-willed, unapologetic Angela Norris in "Landman," and while her character may not be an oil tycoon like her ex, she totally looked like a boss babe at the FYC event in 2025. Larter wore her hair in a slicked-back 'do with the crown slightly teased, and instead of the usual wet look that goes with this style, she managed to make her strands look soft and ethereal. For straight-haired gals who love sleek styles but want a bit of volume, this one will be your go-to.
Ali Larter's soft blowout was so dreamy
Goodbye, beachy waves! 2025 Ali Larter was all about stealth wealth hair. She looked positively radiant at the London premiere of "Landman" Season 2 with her blond locks gracefully blown out into slight cascading waves around her shoulders. The middle part framed her face beautifully, and the long layers added some movement and depth. You can achieve this look with a blowout brush, starting with damp (not soaking wet) hair and a heat protectant spray. Work in sections while angling the brush downward, and you'll be left with Larter's gorgeous, voluminous 'do.
