Hailee Steinfeld has plumped for a drastic new look which left her fans divided after boldly deciding to ditch her signature long locks.

The 27-year-old posted an update on social media to check in with her 20.6 million followers on Instagram, only for her to give them a shock with her transformation.

It is safe to say they were not expecting Steinfeld to unveil such a dramatic change in her look, but there is no denying it suited her.

The ‘Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse’ actress posted a selfie, where she showed off a much shorter haircut which had been styled as a bob.

Steinfeld wrote in the caption: “hi my loves!!! it’s been a minute. life is so great. i’ll fill you in on all the BS details soon…”

On the whole, the change was appreciated by Steinfeld’s fans as they flocked to the comments section to compliment her new hairdo.

One person commented, “oh yes girl, the bob is eating”, while another fan added, “girl disappeared came back with a whole hair change.”

But one woman demanded an explanation for her change, writing: “the hair change?? explain rn hailee.”

Hailee Steinfeld debuts new look at wedding

Steinfeld’s post comes one day after she was spotted with her boyfriend, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, at the wedding of one of his former team-mates in Cabo.

Josh is best friends with Kyle Allen, who despite having the same name is not his brother. He signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason and made another big commitment after tying the knot with Summer Juraszek, whom Steinfeld became friendly with while watching the Bills last season.

Steinfeld posed for photos with Juraszek at Highmark Stadium during the Bills 27-20 win over the New England Patriots on New Year’s Eve. As for Allen, he was best friends with Kyle Allen for years.

Since they started dating over a year ago, Allen and Steinfeld rarely post together on Instagram. However, she made an exception after posting for the first time in nearly three months for the nuptials on June 22.
