Heavy/Getty Sharna Burgess chopped her hair.
Sharna Burgess has a new look.
The “Dancing With the Stars” pro has traded in her long locks, taken out her extensions, and opted for a sleek bob. While some fans have been hoping that the ballroom pro would go back to her deep red color, she chose to keep things bright, going with a platinum blond tone.
“I absolutely meant to do a post with like, ‘hey, new hair transformation,’ after hours in the salon,” Burgess said on her Instagram Stories on May 2, 2023, going on to explain that “life has been unbelievably hectic.”
A few hours later, Burgess shared a photo of her new ‘do on her Instagram feed. “Living my best life with this beautiful spring weather, a killer new cut, a fresh no make up face and sculpted cheekbones,” she captioned the post.
