Jonathan Bailey Looks So Different With New Shaggy Bangs Hairstyle

Connor Storrie Reveals Surprise Heated Rivalry Season 2 Hair Transformation
Jonathan Bailey is dancing through life with a whole new look.
The Bridgerton star recently debuted a dashing new hairstyle that’ll have onlookers burning for him.
At the Burberry show during London Fashion Week on Sept. 21, Bailey ditched his typically-coiffed hair, opting instead for an edgier look with long, ruffled bangs that rested all the way down to the bridge of his nose.
In addition to his debonair new ‘do, the 38-year-old paired the snug black sweater he wore with a pair of leather pants and boots. He also introduced a new pair of round sunglasses, akin to his viral, internet-dubbed “slutty little glasses.”
And while the Wicked actor is no stranger to having all eyes on him on a red carpet, he hasn’t always been able to move through life feeling comfortable in his skin.
“At various moments in my life I’ve been like, ‘I’ve got this,’ which is sometimes met by a deep spike of fear and self-doubt,” he told People in the outlet’s Sexiest Man Alive issue in November. “When I was really young, I was very confident about who I was, and maybe I lost that as I grew up. We’re all sort of trying to get back to the origin, aren’t we?”
He added, “I don’t think I ever thought of myself as sexy as I grew up.”
Nowadays, though, Bailey is able to look at his life and consider himself “incredibly lucky.”

“Life is a ride for everyone no matter who you are, where you come from,” he added. “It’s just making sure that when you’re in the ride, you’re looking left and right and making sure everyone’s all right. And give them a high-five along the way if they need it.”
