Why show off one beauty look when you can roll out an entire lineup? Yesterday in New York City, Kerry Washington set out to prove her hair prowess, teasing, pinning, and accessorizing a cloud of curls to achieve four wholly independent styles that made for a head-turning day.

Upon arrival at Good Morning America, Washington's lengths were loose, with ringlets falling over her forehead and framing her white mod shades, oversize gold hoop earrings, and swipe of blood orange lipstick. Hours later, a switch of her outfit and a new statement coat offered the perfect excuse for a quick half tuck into her collar, with Washington creating the illusion of an asymmetrical chop with new gilded baubles and squared-off aviators.

Fast forward to the evening and it was an elegant half-up pinning that defined her appearance—and left her cheekbones on display—at the Lehman College 50th Anniversary Celebration and Leadership Awards Dinner featuring a kittenish flick of liner, radiant skin, a pinkish-nude lip. And finally, for an appearance on The Tonight Show, Washington let her hair down yet again, this time appearing to have given it a quick head flip and bigger-is-better shake before parting it deeply to the right, affording her glitter-strewn dress an extra dose of disco-era drama. The takeaway? A hair switch-up is a feat unto itself, but a chameleonic approach this seamless is the sign of a true professional—or simply an incredibly mutable day.
