North West has never been one to shy away from experimenting with different styles, but her latest 'do might be her most drastic to date—i.e. the shortest we have seen her go ever.
Over the weekend, the 13-year-old took to the TikTok account she shares with her mother, Kim Kardashian, to officially debut her new hairstyle: a blunt bob with bangs, still in what's become her trademark teal color.
West took to the account to post a series of videos, some of which you can see here and here, teasing new music while donning her brand-new bob. Commenters were quick to point out West's new do shared striking similarities with the character Dark Pretty Cure from the anime Heartcatch Pretty Cure! as well as Alice in Borderland's Rei Morikage, played by Tina Tamashiro in season three of the hit Netflix show.
While West's new hairdo is most likely a wig, it marks her very first venture into bob territory, which is remarkable given how much fun she's had with long hair over the years. In the past, we've seen her do pretty much everything with her hair, from adorning her long tresses with spiky hair embellishments to rocking extra-long braids that went down to her shins in various shades of blue.
Prior to the bob transformation, West was last seen attending the Vetements show as part of Paris Fashion Week, wearing her long hair in pigtails that cascaded into a black ombré 'do, so this is quite the 180-degree turn.
West's TikTok doubles as a hair archive, collating all the styles she's worn over the years, from voluminous teased pigtails to a third pony on the crown of her head and pretty much everything in between. We shall see how long her bob era will stick around for, but it's nice to see her not being afraid to switch things up.
