From Gray to Glowing: Julie Chrisley's Stunning Post-Prison Transformation!
Julie Chrisley's Shocking Reveal: From Dark Locks to Blinding Blonde
In a dramatic turn of events, Julie Chrisley has ditched her new, edgy look and returned to her signature blonde hair, leaving fans and family members alike stunned. The reality TV matriarch, 52, made headlines earlier this month when she was spotted with brown and gray locks just hours after her release from prison.
But it seems Julie's son Chase, 29, wasn't the only one who thought she'd lost her sparkle – or at least, her signature style. As fans of the Chrisley Knows Best family know, Julie's blonde mane is a staple of her persona. So, when photos emerged of her sporting a new 'do, many wondered if it was a permanent change.
Chase had already spilled the tea on his mom's hair situation to Entertainment Tonight just days after her release. "Her hair is darker now," he revealed. "I'm like, 'Mama, we gotta go back platinum blonde.' And she was like, 'I'm not doing that.'"
But it seems Julie has since changed her mind – and her hairdresser's phone number. Spotted at Target over the weekend with two devoted fans, the reality starlet showed off her newly restored blonde locks in all their glory.
The gleaming highlights, the subtle undertones – it was as if no time had passed at all! Julie paired her radiant new 'do with a chic blue blouse, light bell-bottom jeans, and brown sandals. Her glowing complexion shone like a beacon, thanks to a touch of makeup that added bronze eyeshadow, black eyeliner, and clear gloss.
Fans were over the moon for Julie's new look, with many praising her bravery in trying something new – even if it was just for a hot second. "Is it me or does she look younger?!" one fan gushed on TikTok. Another chimed in: "She looks great!! So 2025! Love."
But what sparked this change of heart from Julie? Sources close to the family speculate that her pardon from President Donald Trump might have played a role in her decision. With the cloud of controversy surrounding her tax evasion and bank fraud charges lifted, perhaps Julie felt it was time to return to form – and that meant getting back to her roots (literally!).
For those who may be new to this story, let's recap: Julie Chrisley and her husband Todd were convicted in 2022 on charges of defrauding banks out of over $30 million. They spent nearly three years behind bars before being granted full pardons by Trump.
Their trial was marked by allegations that the couple had submitted false documents to banks to obtain loans, which they then used to pay off other debts. Prosecutors also accused them of not paying taxes for several years and hiding their income through a company in Julie's name.
Despite their claims of innocence, it seems the Chrisleys' lawyers were unable to convince the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn their convictions. But with Trump's pardon, they're free to pick up where they left off – and for now, that means rocking those signature blonde locks.
As fans eagerly await the Lifetime docuseries that will chronicle the Chrisleys' journey, one thing is clear: Julie Chrisley is back, and she's better than ever.
