It’s undeniable that Carrie Underwood is a reigning queen of modern pop-country music, but she’s also an icon for her signature style. For decades, the “Before He Cheats” singer has been known for the platinum blond strands that complete her country-chick-meets-pop-princess aesthetic. But, in a shocking switch-up, Underwood has just transitioned back to her natural hair color for the first time in 30 years.

After years of knowing Underwood as one of music’s quintessential bombshell blonds, you can imagine our shock when we opened Instagram to find that the Oklahoma native had gone back to her roots, pun intended. “Well, the last time I saw my natural hair color, I was probably about 12 years old, but I thought it might be time to give it a second chance,” Underwood wrote in the caption for her new hair reveal.
Tapping Nashville-based hairstylist @hairbykatelin_, Underwood’s new ‘do features a dimensional, chocolatey brown hue, with hints of her classic blond peeking through around her face for a bright, lively bronde hair look. Adding #NewOldMe and #Bronde to the end of her post, Underwood solidified her transition to the dark side, and maybe even hinted at a whole new era on the horizon.
