Alcaraz`s hairstyle has been a topic of conversation since the summer, when a buzzcut, accidentally given by his brother Álvaro ahead of the US Open, sparked a flood of fan reactions. American star Frances Tiafoe humorously described the buzzcut as `horrendous`, though Alcaraz embraced the look with trademark confidence

Fresh off his commanding US Open 2025 win, Carlos Alcaraz is once again making headlines, this time, for his bold new platinum blonde hairstyle that has taken the Internet by storm.
The 22-year-old Spaniard, who reclaimed the World No. 1 ATP ranking after defeating Italy’s Jannik Sinner in the final, debuted his striking new look shortly after lifting his sixth Grand Slam title. The transformation was revealed by his personal barber, Victor Martinez, on Instagram, accompanied by the caption: “Back to No. 1 again and a new look. Carlos we’re crazy.”
