Supermodel Gigi Hadid shocked fans with a major image transformation as she bid farewell to her signature waist-length waves, opting instead for a chic short bob that sits at the base of her neck. The transformation was captured on Instagram in a vintage sepia-toned video recorded by friend Alana O’Herlihy, featuring hairstylist Chris McMillan in action as he chopped off Gigi’s locks.
Despite the drastic change, Gigi nonchalantly captioned the photo “dinner & a chop”, implying the decision was a spontaneous and casual one. Chris McMillan highlighted how the shorter bob accentuated Gigi’s collar bones, showcasing the supermodel’s satisfaction with her new look. He further shared perfectly styled photos of Gigi’s bob on his Instagram, celebrating the textured and tousled style.
Gigi’s new short cut aligns with a popular trend from the previous year, as bobs have become increasingly popular. The chin-grazing bob has been sported by various It girls, including models Hailey Bieber and Kaia Gerber, as well as actresses Ayo Edebiri and Lily Collins. Fans praised Gigi’s new look, with one person describing her as “gorgeous as always.”
Not only did fans adore Gigi’s transformation, but celebrities also chimed in with their approval. Queer Eye’s Tan France expressed his excitement with “O. M. G!!!! I freaking LOVE.” Gigi’s mother, Yolanda, and modeling friend Imaan Hammam also shared their love for the new bob. Alana, the friend who captured the transformation, emphasized the thrill of change by stating “Change is the most exciting part of life!”
Interestingly, Gigi’s new haircut comes ahead of her anticipated official Oscars debut, where she is rumored to make a public appearance with Bradley Cooper, her rumored boyfriend since October 2023. The duo has been spotted hand-in-hand in New York City, sparking speculation among fans and media outlets.
With this bold and stylish image transformation, Gigi Hadid continues to captivate audiences not only with her modeling prowess but also with her ability to effortlessly pull off new and daring looks.
