Beyoncé has been known to change up her look from time to time, and earlier this month the recently Oscar-nominated songstress made a major chop, showing off her most dramatic hair look in recent history. In a Valentine’s Day themed Ivy Park ad that hit social media on February 7, the 40-year-old showed off the new bob and bangs combo that left fans stunned.

Sticking to her classic caramel hair coloring, Beyoncé chopped off her typically long and luscious locks in favor of a sexy blunt cut for the new year. In the image, her hair fell just below her chin in a sharp line that highlighted the singer’s tight jawline, and her bangs lightly grazed the tops of her eyebrows for an edgier take on a traditional look.
Fans were floored by Beyoncé’s new cut, with one writing, “Ok Bey Wintour,” as an apparent nod to Vogue EIC Anna Wintour who is known for her bold, blunt bob. Another fan chimed in, “Baby it’s the BOB for me!” Rare for social media, nary a negative comment was to be found on the singer’s new ‘do.

Prior to making the chop, Beyoncé rocked a long and sleek caramel look for another Ivy Park ad, with hair falling far past her chest in elegant waves which she paired with navy blue latex hot pants for an irresistibly cool look. The singer has dabbled with bangs in the past as well, but never has she committed to the bold look to such an extent as paired with a bob.
Meanwhile, on Bey’s personal Instagram it appears that her strands have reverted back to their longer length, this time with a brighter blonde shade to compliment the gentle curls. Perhaps the bob was nothing more than a wig, but we must admit we were living for the bold look, even if it was temporary.
