Sweeney’s new ‘do was made possible thanks to celebrity colorist Jacob Schwartz and the actress’ longtime hairstylist, Glen Coco Oropeza.
The color was achieved through the use of various Schwarzkopf Professional products, including Igora Royal, which lifted the base, and Igora Vario Blond Super Plus Lightener, which provided the highlights.

Schwartz, a Hair Color Trend Ambassador for the company, then used Schwarzkopf Professional Igora Vibrance to blend the roots and base of Sweeney’s hair, before using the lightener once more to balayage and make the ends brighter.
Oropeza later chopped the Euphoria star’s long blonde tresses, completing the new look.

Sweeney’s new film is a biopic about legendary professional boxer Christy Martin. Directed by David Michôd, the project also stars Ben Foster, Merritt Wever, Katy O’Brian, Ethan Embry, Jess Gabor, Chad Coleman, Bryan Hibbard, Tony Cavalero and Gilbert Cruz.
“Christy Martin never imagined life beyond her small-town roots in West Virginia — until she discovered a knack for punching people,” the film’s synopsis reads. “Fueled by grit, raw determination, and an unshakable desire to win, she charges into the world of boxing under the guidance of her trainer and manager-turned-husband, Jim (Foster).”
But Martin’s greatest fight wasn’t inside the ring. At home, she endured years of abuse from her husband, who also managed her career. After asking for a divorce in 2010, Martin survived a brutal stabbing and shooting by him in their home. (He was later arrested and sentenced to 25 years in prison.)
Christy — which previously received a standing ovation at the Toronto International Film Festival in September — is in theaters on Nov. 7.
