Here's What Charlie's Angels Star And '70s Icon Jaclyn Smith Looks Like Today

Back in the '70s, when men dominated action-packed shows, "Charlie's Angels" revolutionized television with their girl-power theme. One of the original stars, Jaclyn Smith, stayed on as Kelly Garrett until the last episode in 1981. Although the characters were tough, smart, and wily, the three Angels still ran around looking glam, with many fans recreating Farrah Fawcett's iconic '70s blowout. As for Smith, she was known for her lush brunette hair worn in soft waves with face-framing curtain bangs. The actor kept her makeup soft and pretty, defining her eyes with dark liner and perfecting her pout with shiny gloss.

These days, Smith still rocks a chic, retro '70s hairstyle that is making a major comeback. However, her style is significantly lighter than her "Charlie's Angels" days. Gone is the chestnut brown shade, and instead, she has settled on a golden blond color with honey highlights. The "Florence Nightingale" star still has the same soulful, almond-shaped eyes and full lips that she enhances with a light swatch of color. While her stunning looks are likely due to good genes, Smith has spilled all the details on how she has maintained her beauty as someone in her 80s.

Jaclyn Smith is not one to gatekeep her beauty secrets, and we're here for it. During an interview with People in September 2026, the actor revealed that she stays healthy by practicing mindful eating, sleeping well, and taking supplements. However, Smith also admitted to adding fat to her face to make up for loss during the aging process. Still, she's very conservative with it. "Let's face it, there are a lot of things out there you can do, but I don't like it when people don't look like themselves, or they do too much," the mom of two shared. She continued, "Everybody ages, everybody changes. It's the real stuff that puts you on top. Pretty is as pretty does. No one stays a 'Charlie's Angel' forever."

Although that may be true, Smith totally channeled her former "Charlie's Angels" character with a very '70s-looking, bedazzled dress that featured feathered fringe across the bodice at the 2026 Emmys. Although Kelly Garrett was a tough cop, she often had to go undercover at glamorous events and dress up in high-fashion 'fits, and she would have fit right in with this Emmys look. Per usual, Smith wore her hair down in her signature side-swept bangs and lots of layers. We say, once a "Charlie's Angel," always a "Charlie's Angel."
