We're halfway through the working week and to celebrate, Kendall Jenner just dropped not only a fire topless picture *cue all the flame emojis* but one that also features a new bob haircut! Happy hump day, folks!
Over on Instagram (where all exciting celeb news is shared, apparently), the 29-year-old model posted a three-part carousel to debut new editorial images shot by Mert Alas. As mentioned, Kendall is, in fact, topless, however, more importantly, her blonde Marilyn Monroe curls are no more and instead, she has reverted back to her brunette roots with a fresh shoulder-grazing cut.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: There's no better way to ring in a new season – and the winter 2024 one, at that – than with a transformative new hair look.
To most, this look may be unsurprising, seeing as the Kardashian-Jenner family is prone to regular hair changes (hair chameleon Khloë, I'm looking @ you). But, because it was only two months ago that Kendall underwent a bleach-blonde makeover, we're surprised to see her switching up the colour of her locks so soon.
Perhaps the peroxide damage left the reality-turned-runway star with breakage and while a chop is never a bad idea to reinstate strand health, there are specialist hair products that can help. Intrigued? Well, we consulted hair experts on how to go blonde without the damage. Read more, here.
Nevertheless, as one fan so rightly put it in the comments of Kenny's post: "short is the new long baby 🔥". Bob brigade, assemble!
