Battle at Balmain! Kim Kardashian and Jared Leto both debuted new platinum blonde hair while attending Balmain's Fall 2015 show during Paris Fashion Week on Thursday, Mar. 5 — and boy, did they get a reaction! Their drastic and very bold looks quickly went viral on social, drawing quick comparisons to Harry Potter's Slytherin nemesis Draco Malfoy (played by Tom Felton).
Kardashian, 34, decided to change up her hair color just for fun. "So I went platinum!! I have the best team!" Kanye West's wife captioned an Instagram pic. "Thank you to @joycebonelli for being my inspiration and introducing me to @GregoryRussellHair who cut my hair & put this team together! Thank you @LorriGoddard_ who dyed my hair & got this color in one try! Not an easy task!"
The Oscar winner, meanwhile, took the plunge for his upcoming role as The Joker in the film Suicide Squad. He first revealed that he was chopping off his luscious ombre locks (no more man bun!) and shaving off his scruff on Monday, Mar. 2. "I miss my beard already," Leto, 43, wrote via Instagram. After also going platinum, he added a pic of the result on his way to the Balmain show Thursday.
