Landing her big break at around nine-years-old, Raegan Revord has majorly evolved during their time in the spotlight. Fans will recognize them as the real-life actor behind Missy Cooper of “Young Sheldon,” but they’ve also appeared in projects like “Modern Family” and “Wish Upon.” The California native has even extended their reach outside of acting, with Revord having their very own YA-focused book club and publishing their debut novel in 2025. At the same time, the star has undergone a stunning hair transformation, experimenting with everything from subtle color changes to different lengths.
While they haven’t dropped their entire hair routine, they did share with E! News that Olaplex No. 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo is one of their go-to products. “My hairstylist at work introduced me to Olaplex and now it’s all I use,” they said in 2022. “When I’m working there’s a lot of heat and product applied to my hair. The Olaplex products keep my hair healthy and prevents damage.” With this in mind, here’s a look into the “Young Sheldon” star’s head-turning hair transformation.
Raegan’s light brown tresses were on full display at early red carpet appearances
Marking one of the young star’s earliest red carpet appearances, Raegan Revord appeared at the CBS Television Studios’ Summer Soiree in 2017. The young celeb looked adorable in a sparkly, brass-toned top and purple skirt, pairing the outfit with a side-parted hairstyle that fell around their shoulders. They rounded things out with a pair of light pink sandals and a face-framing braid decorated with a purple bow. The early career moment shows off Revord’s natural brownish-blond hair color alongside their propensity for wearing middle-parted ‘dos throughout their early career.
Raegan Revord showed off their love of fun hairstyles in 2018, sporting a pair of half-up space buns to an event at The Hollywood Pantages. The budding celeb combined the playful look with a black-and-white outfit, pairing a leather jacket with a plaid skirt and simple white tee. While the rising star looked as cute as a button in the trendy hairstyle, it wasn’t the only time they’ve experimented with playful looks. Not only did they bring back the buns in 2024, showing off the look on TikTok, but they’ve also been pictured in everything from Y2K-inspired mini-ponytails and braided-back half-updos, demonstrating that they’re not afraid to experiment with more youthful and fun looks.
While Raegan Revord kicked off their acting career with light brown hair, the California native’s shiny tresses subtly turned darker as they aged. This was evidenced at a 2022 event celebrating the 100th episode of “Young Sheldon,” with the star rocking a slicked-back hairstyle featuring a slight bump at the crown. Revord paired the ‘do with a black jumpsuit adorned with a jewel-studded bow on the bust, rounding things out with a pair of pointed-toed shoes and a swipe of red lipstick. Though it’s possible that this color change can be attributed to a subtle dye job, it might just be a natural change that comes with age.
Raegan Revord joined the list of celebs who made the stunning leap from long to short hair in 2023, with the change coming after the California native experienced a traumatic car accident. They opened up about the experience in an interview with ET, explaining that the “Young Sheldon” crew was quick to find ways to comfort the actor post-crash, with a haircut being a long-awaited request. “We had a little break and they called me over and they were like, ‘Hey, we have some news for you,'” the actor said. “And then my hair person walks in and I’m like, ‘No, no, no, no, no. This is not happening!’… And now I have short hair and I’m so happy. I love it so much.”
While Raegan Revord embraced a collarbone-length cut in 2023, they turned heads with an ultra-long look at the 15th Annual Thirst Gala in 2024. The middle-parted hairstyle featured pin-backed pieces on each side of their face, paired with cascading waves. The celeb combined the ‘do with an Alessandra Rich maxi dress featuring a subtle, polka-dotted pattern and ruffly neckline, which they styled with a silk choker and bow-adorned heels. With such a sweeping hairstyle, the overall look made for a super witchy installment in Revord’s stunning hair transformation.
Raegan Revord opted for a voluminous, layered cut in June 2024, and the look was showcased on celebrity hairstylist Justine Marjan’s TikTok page. Resembling the butterfly cut, one of the trendy, animal-inspired hairstyles to take over social media, the chop stretched past the young star’s collarbone while featuring long, face-framing pieces. In addition to these dynamic cuts, the short video shows the hairdo styled with super loose curls at the ends, providing a chic bump of volume.
