Miley Cyrus is one of Hollywood’s biggest hair chameleons.
From her bouncy, blonde Hannah Montana given to her audacity Bangerz from the pixie era to the retro vibe she’s recently embraced, Cyrus has rocked many haircuts, colors, and styles—and a lot of fake hair in the process.
But nothing is as memorable for the “Flowers” singer as when she wore hundreds of hair extensions.
In a teaser clip for her upcoming interview on Harper’s Baser’s podcast, Good buyCyrus, 32, recalls the time her mom, Tish Cyrus, asked for stacks of extensions for her daughter.

The evolution of Miley Cyrus, from Hannah Montana to a Grammy winner to become the youngest Disney legend
“If it was under 250, my mom didn’t have it. Tish said, we need another line. Tish would say, dig another line.”
Cyrus can’t believe they actually went that far, adding, “The kind of hair extensions that we used to have, these don’t even work anymore.”

Despite how the Grammy winner feels about her past beauty choices, fans commented on how much they wanted to copy her hair from the early 2000s and 2010s.
“As a 30 year old I still think about how I want her hair from the Hannah Montana days,” wrote one. “Those extensions changed my life,” added another.
Cyrus ended up saying she just “needed something to grow out of,” which she didn’t do at the time. But she made up for her regrets at the 2024 Grammy Awards, where she showed up with her hair teased to the sky.
In February, her longtime hairstylist Bob Recine told PEOPLE that she wanted to “create something different” with a look that had “a ’70s Barbarella vibe while still having a modern, punk edge.”

At the same time, Cyrus also gravitated toward a timeless, minimalist look.
Over the summer, she hit a party in West Hollywood, California, celebrating Gucci’s Flora fragrance with a chic wet look that she paired with an LBD. For her latest interview, she styled her highlighted brunette locks into an easy updo with perfectly blown out curtain bangs.
