BLACKPINK’s Rosé has stunned fans worldwide with her flawless blonde hair for over seven years. Now, her longtime hairstylist Cha Cha (Cha Jong‑hyun) has revealed the extraordinary effort behind maintaining this signature look.
Appearing on YouTube channel Workers High, Cha Cha explained that Rosé undergoes root bleaching and coloring every two weeks. Because her natural black roots show quickly, the stylist often travels overseas during world tours or photo shoots to ensure her hair remains perfectly blonde.
Cha Cha described grueling schedules, including 12‑hour flights to Los Angeles or San Francisco, rushing to hotels for 3–4 hours of hair treatment, and then immediately flying back to Korea. Sometimes his stay in the U.S. lasted less than 12 hours. Rosé, aware of the toll, personally booked business‑class tickets for him to protect his health.
Despite concerns about scalp damage, Rosé insisted that “my image to the public is more important than my hair health.” Inspired, Cha Cha developed a secret formula to minimize damage while preserving her golden locks. Their trust and dedication became legendary among fans.
Rosé also showed her loyalty by gifting Cha Cha four premium shampoo stations when he opened his salon ArtisyChaCha. The salon has since become a pilgrimage site for BLINKs, attracting around 500 international visitors per month, especially through Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu.
Cha Cha also revealed behind‑the‑scenes stories of BLACKPINK’s styles, including Jennie’s famous “antenna hair,” which required eight rounds of bleaching. Jennie jokingly warned, “If my hair breaks, I’ll call the police,” highlighting the playful yet intense process of creating iconic looks.
From humble beginnings during the IMF era with a small salary, Cha Cha endured eight years of struggle before becoming a star stylist. Today, he dreams of building a headquarters that combines beauty and relaxation, cementing his legacy in the industry.
