If you're a celebrity, there are several sure-fire ways to break the Internet. Near the top of that list is making a drastic hair change, especially if you're a brunette going blonde. Case in point: Selena Gomez's blonde hair at the 2017 American Music Awards basically made social media blow up in a frenzy, just seconds after she stepped out on the red carpet.
While a majority of Selena Gomez's fans tuned in to the American Music Awards to see if she was going to bring her newly-reunited boyfriend Justin Bieber along, they could have never expected that the singer would instead make such a shocking hair reveal. Blonde locks?! Who would have thought?!
According to Instagram, Nine Zero One salon owners and celebrity stylists Nikki Lee and Riawna Capri were responsible for the drastic mane makeover. Stylist Marissa Marino also helped with the gorgeous cut and color. It's not clear why Selena Gomez decided to ditch her signature brown locks for a rooty, blonde bob, but what better time to show it off than at the American Music Awards where she is also scheduled to perform. What's more, fans are so, so, so here for it. Twitter users cannot stop expressing how much they love her new look.
Paired with her all leather look — complete with zippers galore — and a simple stained red lip, Selena Gomez looks like a total badass babe on the red carpet. But don't fret — she's still the same sweet and smiley Selena Gomez we all know and love.
Look at those pearly whites she's flashing to the cameras! Someone must be loving their new look.
Fans love that she kept her roots a little exposed, giving it a little punk rock edge.
Earlier today, Selena Gomez took to social media sharing a photo of herself with a brunette bob and bangs. It did not look anything like her real locks, so many people wondered if it was a wig, and they were totally right. Much to their surprise, however, Gomez was hiding something extra special underneath.
