Beyonce Shocks Fans with New Blonde Pixie Haircut

Beyonce shocked fans with a brand new hairdo. On Wednesday, August 7th, the "Grown Woman" singer put up a photo of a new, short, blond pixie cut on Instagram. She didn't follow up with any comments about her choice of hairstyle, but her colorist, Rita Hazan, did speak to Us Weekly about the singer's new do.

"I was shocked. I think she was just feeling empowered, like a strong woman, and she said she's been feeling it for a long time," Hazan stated about the drastic change. "She didn't want to hide behind her hair in real life."

"I'm so happy because the extensions give women the wrong expectation of what their hair should look like it's great for onstage, but everyday women shouldn't have or want to have five pounds of hair on their head," Hazan continued. "This hair is more natural, more realistic."

It's also much lighter in more ways than one. Before Beyonce debuted the 'do, her hair "was a honey blonde, a darker blonde," Hazan explains. "[Dyeing] it took some time to do like four hours because we wanted to keep her natural color at the root so it would grow out well. We made it a champagne blonde it's very old Hollywood, like a Marilyn Monroe blonde."
