Vibes upon vibes: The huge transformation Julia has had before, during and after Love Island

Every time it’s a new era

Love Island 2026 winner Julia Majchrzak has had a transformation in all senses of the word. Not only has she sported many different looks over the years, but now her whole life has changed, too.

When she walked into Casa Amor, I’m sure she didn’t expect what was coming next. Not really any of us viewers did either. She walked into the villa as a 26-year-old insurance broker, and soon won our hearts and ended up winning the entire show alongside Lorenzo. Icon movements.

Prior to Love Island, but still literally only this year, Julia looked quite different. Instead of her signature blonde hair, she had darker, thicker brown hair.

Alongside a video shared of Julia getting her makeup done, the makeup artist said: “Step by step how I created this soft effortless look with softly defined eye natural glowing skin, and soft bouncy hair that moves with you, perfect for any bride looking for a timeless look with a natural finish.” Maybe she’s already had thoughts about bridal makeup!

Then, in the villa we got to know Julia with her sharp, natural makeup looks. She often rocked a slick-back, but in her promo picture had her hair down, straight.

But that’s all a thing of the past now. It’s time for full-time glamour. She’s an influencer and reality TV winner now! After the show, Julia has been posting pictures of herself all done up for events, and this era really suits her.

Her life is set to completely change. In figures provided to The Tab, an expert estimated she and Lorenzo could earn up to £800k in their first year outside the villa alone.

“Lorenzo is this year’s golden boy. Being voted the public’s favourite gives him something money can’t buy which is trust. Brands love Islanders people genuinely like, and that opens the door to huge fashion, fragrance, travel and lifestyle deals,” brand and culture expert Nick Ede said.

“Julia arrived at exactly the right time and together they have the chemistry brands dream of. If they stay together outside the villa, they could become this year’s breakout success story.”

The best is yet to come!
