Let’s face it, folks, when you think of iconic hairstyles in Hollywood, Sharon Osbourne is one of the first names that comes to mind. For decades, this British powerhouse has been rocking her signature short, vibrant red hair. It’s practically become her trademark look since she first stepped into the spotlight alongside her legendary husband, Ozzy Osbourne, almost 30 years ago. But guess what? In 2020, Sharon decided it was time for a change.
Sharon Goes Platinum: A New Chapter Begins
In February 2020, Sharon made headlines by unveiling an entirely new look on the set of The Talk. Can you believe it? She ditched her famous fiery red tresses for a stunning platinum blonde 'do. Now, if that doesn’t scream confidence and reinvention, I don’t know what does. And who do we have to thank for this fabulous transformation? None other than celebrity colorist Jack Martin. He worked his magic and gave Sharon the change she’d been dreaming of.
The Story Behind Sharon’s Change
Jack Martin shared his excitement about the transformation on Instagram, calling Sharon "the most beautiful and elegant talk show host and entertainer." He explained that Sharon had wanted to make this change for a long time but kept running into issues. “She explained to me that she wanted to do this transformation a long time ago, but every time she attempted it, it ended up being a disaster,” Jack revealed. It turns out, maintaining her signature red hair was no small feat. After 18 years of coloring it once a week, Sharon was ready for something different. She was tired of the upkeep and decided it was time to embrace her true self.

On her talk show, Sharon opened up about the decision, saying, “I was just so fed up of going and having it dyed and having it dyed and I just was like, ‘I can’t do this anymore.’ Why am I trying to do something or be something that I’m not? So just be who you are.” Talk about owning your choices, right? That’s the Sharon we know and love—real, honest, and unapologetically herself.
Ozzy’s Reaction: The Devil Wears Prada?
After her big reveal, Sharon couldn’t stop gushing about the positive feedback she received, especially from her husband, Ozzy. When asked about his reaction, Sharon shared, “He said, ‘The Devil Wears Prada.’” Can you picture it? Ozzy comparing his wife to Meryl Streep’s iconic character! It’s safe to say he approves of the new look. Who wouldn’t, right? Platinum blonde suits her perfectly, adding a fresh, modern edge to her timeless style.
Was Marie Osmond the Inspiration?
While The Talk cohost Marie Osmond recently sported her own gorgeous blonde wig, Sharon insists that Marie wasn’t the reason behind her decision. “I don’t think so,” Marie told Closer Weekly on February 20. “Sharon has been talking about it.” Clearly, this was a change Sharon had been considering for a while, and when the time felt right, she went for it. That’s the spirit!
Now, let’s be honest here—Sharon’s transformation has inspired all of us to think about making a change. Who else is ready to dye their hair platinum blonde and embrace a new chapter in life?
