Overview
- Celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton posted a selfie with Britney Spears on Instagram on June 1 showing the pop star after a styling session.
- Spears’ hair was styled pin-straight in a glossy 'glass hair' look that marks a clear change from the textured waves she has favoured in recent years.
- The post quickly attracted strong positive engagement from fans and celebrities, including a visible approval emoji comment from Kim Kardashian.
- The makeover does not alter Spears’ recent legal outcome: she pleaded to a reduced 'wet reckless' misdemeanor in May and remains on 12 months of summary probation with required programs and fines.
- Appleton framed the session as a 'full-circle' moment after publicly saying he long wanted to work with Spears, a collaboration that may shift public focus toward her image and career activity in the near term.
