Rochelle Humes just delivered us a gorgeous hair transformation... and came with receipts. With celeb hair shooting past their shoulders overnight, or transforming from black to pumpkin spiced in an afternoon, we're often not 100% sure if what we're seeing is extensions coming out, wigs going on, or simply witch craft (Illuminati?). Not that it stops us enjoying the switch ups.
However, Roch just cropped off her long tresses for real, and the evidence is allover the floor...
Sharing the new 'do to her Instagram stories, Rochelle accompanied it with a video of just how much hair had been snipped away. Nothing makes my tummy squirm like seeing hair that long scattered underneath the stylist's chair, but this is no 'I asked for a trim' tragedy. The mum of three 'braved it' (in her own words), and chopped it all off into the most delicious collarbone skimming bob that is anything but mumsy.
The work of her go-to hair stylist Jay Birmingham (@jayb.hair), the centre parted choppy lob frames her features so perfectly she looks damn-near angelic. A look accentuated with sweeping Audrey Hepburn cat eye lashes and peachy soft glam by Francesca Abrahamovitch.
The star has been sporting raven hair down her back for a long time now, and while we're pretty sure extensions are involved for her signature style, it's clear a fair bit of her natural hair has been snipped. Unless that was snipped extensions on the floor...
Is it all a lie? Well to be frank we don't care when she looks this stunning.
Everyone's clicking on...
And now we'll for sure be able to tell her apart from her sisters, because since she stopped wearing her hair curly it's honestly been spot the difference in group snaps.
Sorry, how can half siblings look this identical when I don't resemble one family member?
