Camila Cabello clearly wants to change the subject. After the internet exploded with rumors that she and boyfriend Shawn Mendes are engaged, Cabello did Hollywood Pivot 101: she debuted a new hairstyle. The 24-year-old singer and next Cinderella took to Instagram to share her new short ‘do and gorgeous colorful makeup look, and let me tell you — this is one way to get people’s minds elsewhere.
Short, shoulder-grazing bobs are making a major comeback this fall, and while the look may not be for everyone, Cabello successfully pulls off a Sexy Lord Farquaad look. This is primarily due to the styling — short, blunt ends that have been straightened beyond belief, but still look nourished and healthy. That’s how you know she was in the hand of a professional because those ends could look fried from a normal hand. The haircut is a drastic change for Cabello, who has been rocking long, shaggy hair with curly bangs for what feels like a lifetime, but this signals both a new season and a new era for Cabello, who is revving up for the release of Cinderella next week. This is very much the anti-Cinderella hair, but we cannot wait to see it on the red carpet.
The genius cut comes courtesy from longtime stylist Dimitris Giannetos, while the edgy, graphic neon eye look is all Patrick Ta’s brilliance, which totally makes sense. The look was matched with a manicure, complete with nails that mirrored and matched her eye makeup. No idea who or what these photos are for — really, they could just be a fun day playing around in front of the camera — but they’re gorgeous, regardless.
She may not be engaged, but Camila Cabello successfully reminded us that yes, there is way more to talk about than her love life. Shawn Mendes who?
