The Bachelor 28: Did Kelsey Anderson Chop Off Her Signature Locks? (See The Shocking Photos Of Her New Look)

The Bachelor season 28 star Kelsey Anderson recently changed her signature mane of hair, but did she really cut off all her hair? Kelsey made her television debut when the 25-year-old junior account executive stepped out of the limousine on night one of The Bachelor season 28. One of the first things anyone would ever notice about Kelsey was her wild mane of long wavy hair, and 28-year-old Joey Graziadei immediately hit it off with the New Orleans, Louisiana, resident.

After a long season of dates, rose ceremonies, and dramatic interludes, Joey gave his final rose to Kelsey. Joey and Kesley got engaged at the end of The Bachelor season 28 and are currently busy living happily ever after. Things haven't been perfect, but now Joey and Kelsey are prominent influencers with massive followings. Kelsey recently posted a photo of herself with much shorter hair, which is a dramatic departure from her signature mane of hair. Read on to see the photos.

Joey Loves Kelsey's Signature Locks

Don't Tame The Mane

Joey was a big fan of Kelsey's signature locks from the moment he laid eyes on her, and he told her so during a solo date on The Bachelor season 28. During the date, Joey playfully tells Kelsey to never "tame the mane." It's clear Joey loved Kelsey's unique look and glamorous mane of hair. It remains to be seen how he would feel about Kelsey rocking a bob.

"The Bobdemic Has Hit Me"

Kelsey recently posted several Instagram photos of herself wearing a much shorter haircut. Gone is her long mane of wavy hair, replaced by a chic shoulder-length cut. Kelsey had changed her hair before, but not nearly so dramatically. The Bachelor season 28 star is smiling in all the photos and clearly loves her new look. Her caption reads, "The Bobdemic has hit me," a reference to the recent popularity of the trending haircut.

Did Kelsey Really Chop Off Her Hair?

It Was Probably An April Fools' Day Prank

Since Kelsey posted the photos on April Fools' Day, chances are pretty good that it was a prank. On closer inspection, it looks like Kelsey tucked all her hair under, to create the illusion of a bob, without actually chopping off her hair. The Bachelor season 28 star is known for her signature mane, and, with Kelsey's star on the rise, she's unlikely to change her look anytime soon. It'll become clear in the coming days if Kelsey really changed her look so dramatically.
