Ariana Grande debuts a bob during planned break from public appearances

Ariana Grande has replaced her signature ponytail with a chin-length bob in selfies shared on Instagram.

The 33-year-old singer’s new style is her natural brunette color, and fans and celebrities praised it in the comments.

The haircut comes during a planned break from public appearances that Grande announced would begin after her Eternal Sunshine tour.

She said the break had been planned well in advance and that setting boundaries was important.

Grande wrapped the tour in early September and has not been making public appearances since.

She has continued posting on social media and promoting her beauty brand, but no further plans for the break are stated.
