Salma Hayek’s bun was the center of attention at the Breakthrough Prize. In question? His gray locks deliberately left visible.
THE Breakthrough Prizeco-founded by Mark Zuckerberg to reward the most major scientific advances of the moment, took place on April 18 in Los Angeles. On the red carpet, Salma Hayek once again attracted all eyes by playing the photographer’s game with great elegance. Dressed in a Gucci mermaid dress and wearing a gala bun with natural silver highlights, the actress looked simply ravishing.
There is no question for Salma Hayek of hiding her white locks for this evening: on the contrary, she chooses to embrace them and enhance them thanks to a hairstyle designed by the expert hands of hairdresser Andy Lecompte. Its XXL bun, placed high on the head, combines structure and flexibility, with volume worked from the roots for an effect that is both chic and elegant.
The key element of the look? A large strand tied to the side, revealing the natural shades of gray that blend with its brown base. This styling work which captures the light has the particularity of accentuating the silver reflections of the Mexican-American-Lebanese star with each flash. A hair makeover complemented by glamorous makeup and dangling crystal earrings.
At the dawn of her 60th birthday, Salma Hayek embraces the natural color of her hair more than ever and seems to be initiating a real hair transition, as evidenced by her latest public appearances. Her gray hair was already elegantly featured in her hair during the same event last year, but also at the 2025 Golden Globes ceremony and even on her Instagram account. An assumed evolution which confirms its free relationship with beauty!
