These Schwarzkopf Products Were the Key to Creating Lisa’s Soft Mink Blonde for the 2025 Met Gala

05/06/2025

If you’ve been considering going blonde this spring, actress and BLACKPINK singer Lisa definitely needs to be your hair inspiration. The star took the 2025 Met Gala red carpet by storm with a high-impact refresh of her stunning “Soft Mink Blonde” hair color. 

Leaning fully into the Met Gala’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” Lisa wore a structured blazer and Louis Vuitton tights, with no pants. The singer paired the daring outfit with a sophisticated high-bun that tied it all together.

As for the colorist behind her beautiful blonde? It was none other than celebrity colorist and Schwarzkopf Professional U.S. Hair Color Trend Ambassador, Jacob Schwartz.

Schwartz transitioned Lisa from red-toned chestnut to a soft, cool-leaning blonde with subtle warmth and smooth contrast using Schwarzkopf Professional’s IGORA VARIO BLOND SuperPlus for bright, controlled lift, and IGORA VIBRANCE to create seamless tone and dimension.
