Fresh off the finale of “American Horror Story: 1984,” leading lady Emma Roberts ditched her shoulder-length brunette locks and switched to a striking honey blonde hue with the help of Nine Zero One Salon’s Nikki Lee (@nikkilee901)—and we’re SO here for it! Nikki gave us the deets on how she achieved this stunning transformation on Emma, so keep scrolling to grab the formulas and how-to steps!

 

Style Note: “Honey got a new do! Emma is proving that not everything is going to be icy this winter. Instead, we’re keeping things warm. Since we knew we wanted to go long with her hair, we wanted to make sure the blonde wasn’t platinum-looking. Keeping it in this honey tone gives us a more natural and classic vibe for this holiday season,” says Nikki.
