Supermodel Jodie Kidd has gone for a dramatic change of look, cutting off her famous golden locks in favour of a short and sassy style.
Though she says she's long thought about chopping off her famed mane, it took a natural phenomenon to get her to the hairdresser. Apparently, the avid polo player's naturally wavy blonde hair was causing her some trouble during the summer heatwave, giving the catwalk star an added incentive to make the leap.
"It was so hot, and my hair was getting in the way a bit," she said, adding later: "I thought, 'What the hell', and went to a salon." Though it was a spontaneous decision, the model was in good hands, having her new look created by celebrity hairstylist Paul Hanlon.
That's not to say that, like anyone undergoing a big change while in the stylist's chair, Jodie wasn't in for a shock. "When I looked in the mirror it was a bit worrying," she admits, "but it's so much easier to deal with."
