Leni Klum is turning 20 this week, and she seems to be entering this new age with a drastic new haircut, as she teased fans in a new photo.
The 19-year-old daughter of Heidi Klum shared a clip of her hair being cut into a french bob, chin-length and wispy with a fringe. The second picture again showed off only half her face as she showed the finishing touches on the cropped look.

As she tagged Dior Beauty in the look, Leni hinted that more was to come from her collaboration with the luxury brand. As well as her new short look, Leni has also tested a number of new appearance changes for the brand, as earlier in April she opted for bushy, laminated brows while holding a bottle of Miss Dior.

"She's old enough now", Heidi confirmed to People in 2020. "I always thought she was too young. We always also decided to keep the children out of the public eye. But she's driving a car now. She's 16, so I figured if you can do that, you can also model now if this is what you wish to do."

Seal has also spoken about Leni's modeling career, stating that while he's "so proud of everything that Leni has done", he's "more proud of everything that she is".
He explained: "She walks through life with this type of humility that allows her to move so gracefully through it all and she has an innate understanding of people in general and people’s feelings."
"So I’m kind of more impressed with everything that she is."
