Jessica Simpson debuted a more subdued dirty-blonde look during the American Idol season 23 finale on May 18, 2025. Cosmopolitan reported that colorist Rita Hazan developed the shade, a change from Simpson’s brighter blonde.

Jessica Simpson’s American Idol finale look

Simpson appeared on the Sunday finale, where she performed “Blame Me” and later joined former season 23 contestant Josh King for Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’,” according to ABC News. The performance photos in that report are credited to Christopher Willard/Disney. The official ABC/Disney American Idol photo gallery is another place to view program images; check image rights and licensing before reuse.

Cosmopolitan characterized Simpson’s hair as a natural-looking, less bright dirty blonde and credited colorist Rita Hazan with creating the shade. The outlet described the target as “a more natural” blonde, “like a kid on the beach.” It also called the appearance Simpson’s first televised performance in 15 years.

What was reported about the color process

Cosmopolitan reported that Hazan spent two hours perfecting the color. That is the duration reported for this work, not a typical appointment estimate. The article did not provide a complete color formula, salon technique, or at-home instructions.

The same report said Hazan used Glaze Hair Supergloss in Vanilla Lights to tone down brassiness and add shine. The product mention does not establish that a gloss alone created Simpson’s overall color; the shade was credited to Hazan’s color work.
