In the Wicked movies, Michelle Yeoh plays the Shiz instructor Madame Morrible, who uses her powers to control the weather and send the tornado that brings Dorothy to Oz. But on the red carpet, Yeoh has been making another kind of magic—the beauty-related kind! The Oscar winner has been having so much fun changing up her hairstyle at nearly every premiere stop, capping off two years of press duties with a highlighted highlighted pixie cut that is nothing short of enchanting. (Or as the Ozians would say, we’re “obsessulated.”)
As Morrible, Yeoh wears a silvery wig sculpted into various curly, twirly updos, but for the New York premiere, she did a total 180 with a sophisticated pixie in a chocolate brown color with eye-catching chunky golden highlights scattered throughout. The pixie was cut longer than the classic super-short Mia Farrow-in-Rosemary’s Baby pixie, with long bangs that fell just below the arch of Yeoh’s brows and a choppy, playful texture reminiscent of the short cuts of the late ‘90s and early 2000s. While it’s definitely a pixie, it’s tiptoeing pretty close into bowl cut territory. It also provided the ideal anchor for her enormously fluffy Givenchy lime tulle gown, black liner, and pink cheeks and lips.
