Selena Gomez has gone through a shocking new hair transformation which she recently shared on Instagram, showing off her gorgeous natural curls. The 28-year-old took cues from one of the biggest beauty trends of the year: bangs. They definitely don’t look like she cut them herself, thank goodness!

Gomez has firmly positioned herself as a beauty trendsetter this year, launching her new makeup brand Rare Beauty. The multi-talented star has also shown that she knows how to rock the most popular hairstyles of the season with her new crop. We may not be able to head to the hair salon anytime soon, but Selena will be at the top of our Pinterest board when we do!

The actress has tried a multitude of hair looks this year, from blown out curls to long caramel waves, but this new fringe may be one of our favorite styles. Bangs have come back in a big way this year, but Gomez is an old pro with the look. The star led the charge on the chic do, rocking several variations of the classic style over the years.

Selena has taken to the Rare Beauty YouTube channel several times in recent weeks to share some of her top makeup tips, but we’re dying for her to do a video on her hair! Just last week, Gomez discussed her best foundation routine secrets to keep her makeup on all day. The 28-year-old beauty exclusively used products from her own beauty line--no surprise there!

Celebs are known to change their hairstyles on a whim, but we’re hoping Selena keeps the new fringe around for a while--we love a curly bang! Although we rarely have the opportunity to get all dressed up these days, when the time does come to debut our new looks post-quarantine, Selena has left us with some stunning beauty inspiration. We wish we could pull off her look!
