It’s been only a week and a half since Beyonce shocked her fans by premiering s shockingly short pixie crop to her fans on Instagram, and the singer is already changing things again. Of course, it’s not just hair, it’s a state of mind, as anyone who’s been stood in front of the mirror, chopping at their own long locks would know. But apparently Beyonce wasn’t in the “completely short” state of mind just yet. As she stepped out to lunch with husband Jay Z and daughter Blue Ivy earlier this week, Beyonce premiered a slightly longer bob, held in place by a chain headband.

Short or long(er), Beyonce looks stunning either way.

The look was very summer appropriate of course, and slightly reminiscent of Coachella, so we can’t say we’re disappointed. But why the sudden change? And this so soon after she shocked her stylist Kim Kimble with the decision.


Beyonce premiered the short look just last week.

"I got a little teary eyed!," Kimble told People about the pixie, which Beyonce flaunted on Instagram. "I've been working for her so long, she has this beautiful long hair and it's hard to grow hair out. I feel like it's my hair, I work so much with her. I feel a little emotional but excited for her too. Maybe I'll cut my hair off now. Short hair, don't care!"

But as long as she can perform like she does...

Well, at least Bey stuck to the blonde color, which was painstakingly created by her colorist Rita Hazan. Short or not, we love Beyonce nearly anyway, and she can definitely pull off either look.
