American Olympic figure skater Alysa Liu has received unanimous praise for her boundary-breaking routines during the Winter Olympics. Less unanimous is the response to her hair, a tiered system of blonde and brunette halo rings, which has divided the internet.
It’s not just Liu whose halo hair has been making waves recently: in late 2025, Spanish pop star Rosalía dyed a blonde ray of light into her dark tresses, splitting her fans into two camps: pro-halo and anti-halo.
