Ever an ambassador for the “change your hair, change your life” approach to styling, “Happier Than Ever” singer Billie Eilish has ditched her Old Hollywood-inspired blonde bob for a chocolate-brown shag cut, she revealed in an Instagram Thursday night.
Perhaps she got the memo that Gen Z proclaimed blonde hair cheugy, but it’s more likely the artist—notorious for never keeping a signature hairstyle for long—got restless after making waves at multiple events with her blonde tresses. “Miss me?” she captioned the photo on her Instagram page, implying her new look is a return to her roots.

The singer has spoken out before about her hair journey, especially how her once-iconic green-dye look had made her instantly recognizable in public. In ELLE’s October issue, she explained, “I couldn’t go anywhere with that hair because it was so obviously me. I wanted anonymity…I was terrified of the paparazzi and these stalkers I’ve had. But my friend was like, ‘Don’t worry: You’re okay. Nothing’s gonna happen.’ And I took my hood off, and I felt like a new person.”

But she also hinted that the blonde look hadn’t felt entirely like her authentic self, and fans had sensed the difference. During the interview, she added, “I had no goal of ‘This is going to make everybody think differently of me. The other day, I posted a video from when I had green hair, and I saw people go, ‘I miss this Billie, the green-haired Billie.’ I’m still the same person. I’m not just different Barbies with different heads.”
With her “Miss me?” caption, it seems Eilish understood exactly the shapeshift her fans were looking for. Maybe with a new look will come new music?
