She may be known for her trademark long flowing locks but pop star Beyoncé has shocked the world with new pictures of a super-short hairstyle.
The 31-year-old singer debuted her new pixie crop on instagram and we can’t believe the results! She’s shown in the pictures admiring the new ‘do in the mirror with her hands placed behind her head. The selfies also reveal the full extent of her dark, natural roots.
The major hair change comes just two days after the summer leg of her Mrs Carter tour – perhaps the nightly performances have taken their toll on her ‘do, not to mention her recent hair-raising incident with a fan on stage!
As you’d expect the new style has sparked debate among her army of fans across the world. ‘Omg! I just saw Beyonce’s new haircut. That hair better grow out before the concert on Dec 3rd!’ says one. ‘Hair or no hair, she still the baddest #Beyoncé’ added another.
Brides-to-be, take note! A dramatic hair change like this is never advisable just before the big day. Your h2b will want to see a more polished version of the ‘normal’ you so avoid brand new colour changes or cuts in the weeks approaching the big day.
Top bridal hairstyles
“You’ll want to look back on your wedding photos and still like how your hair looked, so keep it elegant,” says Martin Crean, Creative Director of London’s Mode salon. “There’s a lot of pressure for brides to look absolutely perfect on their wedding day. However, it’s important to strike a balance between a hairstyle that looks beautiful and one that won’t require too much maintenance. You need to be able to enjoy your day without having to worry if your curls are falling out, or if the grips will stay in place. That’s why it’s essential to build up a relationship with your stylist so they know exactly what your hair is like and how it behaves. It’s also vital to book a hair trial in advance so you can wear your hair in your chosen wedding style for a full day to see how it works. Only then will you be confident that you’ve chosen a style that you’ll be comfortable with. As a result, you’ll be able to enjoy your wedding day, knowing your hair is looking its bridal best!”
