From a doe-eyed ingénue on Home and Away to a lead blonde bombshell: Samara Weaving’s beauty transformation over the years

Samara was baby faced and styled naturally during her time on Home and Away beside her co-star Luke Mitchell.

She rocked beachy waves and a light tan in 2010 to sign autographs at the Royal Melbourne Show. Her iconic pout was yards ahead of today's beauty trend, and hers is all natural.

She embraced the trendy duck lips pose in 2011 for Snoop Dogg and Nelly's performance in Sydney.

In 2012, Samara placed her mainstay beach waves into a loose up-do, and while she prefers her hair down, we love when she changes it up as we can see her striking features better.

A chop! Yes, Samara finally changed things up but cutting her long locks, and she looks reminiscent of a beachy Debby Harry. She debuted this shake up at Sydney's fashion week in 2013.

For the premiere of Mystery Road in 2013, Samara placed her hair into this 1950s inspired hairstyle to showcase her eye accentuating purple eyeshadow.

After years of yellow blonde hair, the actor finally changed her hue to embrace an auburn tinge. She showed off her billowing curls at the Vulture Awards Season Party in 2016, and we think she dazzled in this daring colour.

In 2017, she returned to her yellow blonde colour, and her favourite wind swept aesthetic.

She doesn't abandon her curls often, but when she does it's chef's kiss stunning!

For the 2018 SAG Awards, she arrived with her hair pushed off her face to showcase her elegant smoky eye and nude lips.

Samara tends to smudge her deeper roots into her yellow blonde hair, but during Paris Fashion Week in 2020, she stepped out in this one-tone colour, which was a brave trend to follow in the time of balayage.

A fringe! For Paris Fashion Week in 2021, Samara threw away her style rules to rock this long fringe and a bronde hue.

Of course, Samara doesn't look anything like her Nine Perfect Strangers character, but it was quite the beauty transformation, and we would be remiss.
