While some may argue this is not, in fact, breaking news *rolls eyes*, here on the Cosmopolitan Beauty desk nothing could be quite as revolutionary as Kim Kardashian cutting all her hair off... no, really.
Taking to her Instagram Stories just a few weeks ago, Kim posted a series of videos. When showing off her new SKIMS apparel loungewear, the business head-meets-beauty mogul casually debuted a chic new haircut. Enter: the chin-length bob. Take a look at the initial video snap below.
"I want to show you guys my new hair," she said alongside a bunch of necessary poses (read: peace and pout, Keeks).
Following this, just short of 24 hours ago, the mum-of-four posted yet another video to her feed, revealing the exact look of her fresh cut. Warning: the following hairstyle is the glossiest micro mushroom bob we've ever seen...
To note, Kim has had chic bob cuts alike over the years but nothing quite as short or blunt as her current look. The shiny rounded edges and curved lines are what defines the look a 'mushroom' bob. And ofc, we are so in love – it just screams summer 2023.
Now, for the funsies (and in honour of the infamous Kardashian dramz), we must mention how much Kim looks like Kourtney with this short style. I mean, in recent episodes of their reality TV show, The Kardashians, there was some beef between the two with rumours of copying one's – and I quote – 'La Dolce Vita Lifestyle'.
Everyone's clicking on...
Though, Kourt did apparently 'steal' Kim's wedding country and wedding singer... IYKYK.
All jokes aside, whether or not the two have the same haircut, they are going to resemble certain similarities. After all, they're sisters!
Another day, another Kardashian slay.
