Simone Biles walked the red carpet at the 58th Annual Country Music Association Awards, debuting a new haircut.
Can you imagine a world in which Simone Biles can’t wear a ponytail or bun while flipping around on the floor and flying between the uneven bars? We didn’t think we could — we didn’t think we wanted to — but after the legendary gymnast attended the CMA Awards in a hairstyle that’s drastically different from her usually long look, we think we can get used to this previously unfathomable new way of life.
Biles walked the red carpet at the 58th Annual Country Music Association Awards, where she debuted a new bob. And not just any bob—a “voluminous ’90s glam” bob, as her hairstylist Justing Revenge called it on his Instagram post about the stunning look. The side-parted style looks lifted and sculpted but soft and smooth.
When Biles changed out of her shimmering, gunmetal, off-the-shoulder gown to present an award in an even more sparkly silver suit, her bob took on a flippier new feel.
And when the record breaker attended the CMA afterparty in a strapless red dress and cowboy boots, it looks like Revenge might have touched up the bob with a quick hit of the flat iron.
If her smile is any indication, Biles is loving her new bob—and so are fans. “I didn’t think you could become even more beautiful than you already are. Your new look is divine!!!!!!!!” said one commenter on Instagram. “Seriously obsessed with this hair 😍,” wrote another fan. Yet another commenter stated in all caps what we’re all thinking: “YOUR HAIR IS PERFECT.”
