Julie Chrisley turns back into TV self with blonde hair after prison release
Julie Chrisley knows what hair color is best.
After the 52-year-old and her husband, Todd Chrisley, 56, were pardoned by President Donald Trump last month, the family matriarch was spotted in Target on Monday rocking her signature blonde locks again.
Julie posed with two young girls for a selfie, as seen in a TikTok video, and her hair was back to the bright blonde she had before entering prison.

A second clip showed a full-length shot of the reality television star with the two fans as she sported light-washed blue jeans, a navy top and sandals.
Fans flocked to the comments section to share their excitement over the image, with one social media user stating, 'How cool is this! The fact she wanted to stay away from the media and photos but still was willing to take pictures with you all makes her even more likeable [sic].'

Julie's lighter color comes on the heels of the 'Chrisley Knows Best' alum debuting brunette hair and gray roots after she was initially released from her two-year prison stint.
At the time, her son Chase Chrisley, 28, made it clear that her darker hair was there to stay.

'My mother is an angel. She's still a beautiful woman. Her hair is darker now,' he told Entertainment Tonight on May 31. 'I'm like, 'Mama, we've got to go back platinum blonde.' And she's like, 'I'm not doing that.''

In 2019, the 'Chrisley Knows Best' stars were indicted, with federal prosecutors accusing them of submitting fake documents to banks in order to garner more than $30 million in loans.
Julie was pardoned from her seven-year stretch at FMC Lexington in Kentucky, while Todd was released from his 12-year prison sentence at FPC Pensacola in Florida. They each served a little over two years of their sentences.

Now, Todd and Julie have been reunited, and they couldn't be happier.
'Oh my gosh, it has been amazing. It's still just kind of … it doesn't feel real,' their daughter Savannah Chrisley, 27, told People after their first night home. 'We were going to bed last night. We're like, 'Is this real?' And then, I wake up this morning and my mom's walking into my bedroom and I'm like, it's absolutely insane!'
'We are just so grateful and ready to kind of start getting back to normal life, obviously, the best we can,' she continued. 'Everything's a whirlwind right now, and it's kind hard to live a normal life with how things are right now, but we'll get there.'

Savannah shared with the outlet that 'they're doing great.'
'It's obviously an adjustment. … I think they're kind of just in shock right now,' she said at the time. 'It's just a big adjustment when you're in prison for two and a half years, and then you go back to so-called normal life. I can't imagine.'

'I just think it's a lot for them, but they're enjoying it. We're all spending time together. And obviously, when they're ready to talk about their feelings and emotions, I know that they will articulate it well, like they always do.'
Fans will also be able to see the family make their reality television comeback after 'Chrisley Knows Best' – which ran for 10 seasons – ended in 2023.

Savannah told reporters outside her father's prison last month, 'We have a new show coming out on Lifetime, and it will document all of these things.'
'We're excited. We literally could not have done it,' she gushed. 'It's all God and President Trump at this point.'
