Switching things up from a long, straight and sleek look that she rocked for her birthday, Washington embraced her natural texture with some bouncy, shiny curls. The actress posted a stunning selfie to show off the look, posing in red lipstick and flawless skin to highlight the coils.

Washington captioned the pic, “Fresh cut. Curls and coils . Thank to the artist that is @villalobos_linda ✂,” and friends and fans sounded off in the comments with adoration for the new look. “LOVE,” wrote fellow actress Yara Shahidi. Meanwhile, another fan added, “Wow love that haircut the way it’s framing your face.”

To round out 2021, Washington posted a recap to Instagram of some of her favorite looks from the year, showing off the multitude of hair styles she rocked before landing on her curls. The collage shows a sleek 20’s style look, a long and layered cut, and even a short pixie cut as Washington posed as a character from Squid Games.

Effortlessly pulling off each of these looks, Washington may have settled on bouncy curls for now, but it’s almost a guarantee that 2022 will see her trying out a variety of new and exciting styles as she has in years past. We can’t wait!
