We will love Bette Midler no matter what she does with her tresses, but we must say that her choice to ditch the gray hair in favor of a soft blonde with light pink streaks has us wowed. We have been fans through long and short hair, gray and pre-gray. But her guest appearance on “The Voice” just has us hairily dazzled.

Take a look at Midler’s hair through the years, scroll down to the bottom to see her newest hairdo, and see if you don’t agree that this may be the best look ever for our favorite 70 year old.

Bette was a redhead in 1990 when she won a Grammy for “Wind Beneath My Wings.”
