We Are Shook After Seeing Jennifer Aydin as a Blonde (PHOTO)

The brunette RHONJ mom is best known for her shiny brown hair, but we found a time when she had blond hair and we can't unsee it.

We all know that Jennifer Aydin has given us some unforgettable hair looks over the years — including high ponytails, big buns, and her long hair down and flowing — but the one thing she is always true to is her glossy brown hair. The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member is most famous for being a brunette, but that doesn't mean she hasn't experimented with her hair color over the years. Case in point: when Jennifer Aydin was a blonde.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Yes, a blonde.

In fact, back in 2019, Jennifer shared a throwback photo of herself from years prior where she was sporting blonde hair. She posted the photo, which includes her standing besides her brother Michael while she's rocking the honey-hued locks, and asked "Remember when I was a blonde?"

We're not sure where Michael stands on the matter, but we won't be quick to forget!

Jennifer Aydin shares details about her naturally curly hair

While Jennifer is not naturally blonde, in 2020, she did show off her naturally curly hair, dubbing herself "Curly Sue."

She posted the look to Instagram that year, sharing, "For the first time in 20 years, I didn’t feel the need to dry my hair straight. Yup - my hair is naturally curly!"  In the video in which she revealed the look, she added when speaking to her kids, "I haven't worn my hair curly since before I met your dad. It's a little weird, but it's natural." 

(As you can see, she has since embraced the curls as she did on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in July 2024.)

Jennifer also shared that in between colorings, sometimes a few gray hairs peek through her dark hair. In a video posted in 2020, she shared her POV on it: "Do you see my hair sparkle? That's gray hair."

She added about the gray hair at the time, "Who doesn't love a bit of sparkle?"
