10 Reality Stars Who've Completely Transformed Over the Years
Before they had money to afford crazy amounts of plastic surgery, before there were any stylists consulted, and way before anyone knew how to do makeup for TV, our reality stars looked like normal, everyday people. By the time the later seasons of their shows rolled around, though, they'd transformed into unrecognizable, ultra-glam versions of themselves. Don't think that's true? Here are 10 reality stars who've totally transformed their look, if not their entire face and body. Take Kim Kardashian, for example.
Reality Stars Go From Frump to Fab
Before they had money to afford crazy amounts of plastic surgery, before there were any stylists consulted, and way before anyone knew how to do makeup for TV, our reality stars looked like normal, everyday people. By the time the later seasons of their shows rolled around, though, they'd transformed into unrecognizable, ultra-glam versions of themselves. Don't think that's true? Here are 10 reality stars who've totally transformed their look, if not their entire face and body. Take Kim Kardashian, for example.
Kim Kardashian, 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians'
In 2006, Kim's style was, uh, questionable, and she definitely had way more hair.

After six years on reality TV, Kim's done a 180.
Vicki Gunvalson, 'Real Housewives of Orange County'
When Vicki first came onto the scene in 2006, she had an all-natural look.

Seven years later, Vicki's had a chin implant, some fillers, and a love-affair with blonde hair dye.
Farrah Abraham, 'Teen Mom'
Farrah was a beautiful, fresh-faced 16-year-old with a kid on 16 & Pregnant ...

But once the money started rolling in, she spent tens of thousands on plastic surgery. From her chin to her cheeks to her nose to her breasts, no part of Farrah has seemingly gone untouched.
NeNe Leaks, 'Real Housewives of Atlanta'
Klonk! NeNe's 2008 look was carefree.

Now, NeNe's uber-glam. Could her epic popularity and role on The New Normal have anything to do with it?
Kate Gosselin, 'Kate Plus 8'
Oh, boy. And boy and boy and girl, girl, girl, girl, girl. On the first season of Jon & Kate Plus 8 Kate had little time to worry about her appearance.

But now that her twins and sextuplets are all grown up, the frazzled mother's evidently had some time to treat herself.
Catelynn Lowell, 'Teen Mom'
Catelynn was adorable on 16 & Pregnant and the first season of Teen Mom.

She's no longer a kid, though, and those braces are but a wonderfully distant memory.
JWoww, 'Jersey Shore'
From stringy blonde hair extensions to a permanent drunk face, JWoww's really changed since her look here, in 2009.
JWoww, 'Jersey Shore'
She's clearly had a lot of work done, but as far as new faces go, her's is pretty good.
Heidi Montag, 'The Hills'
Heidi! Why! She was gorgeous in 2006. Only, she didn't think so.

Countless surgeries later, Heidi is unrecognizable at 26.
Snooki, 'Jersey Shore'
From the poof to the dark eye-liner to the halter tops, Snooki was a vision of realness in 2009.
Snooki, 'Jersey Shore'
Now that she's had her baby and lost 60 pounds, she's a fiery, svelte redhead.
Mama June, 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo'
There was lots of room for improvement when we first met Mama June a few years ago on an episode of Toddlers & Tiaras.
Mama June, 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo'
And wow, she's certainly made some positive changes. Lookin' good, Mama.
