Ella Emhoff keeps fans on their toes with her ever-evolving appearance but there's one phase she went through which she's vowed to never revisit.
Kamala Harris' stepdaughter took to Instagram this week with photos displaying one of her many unique looks after bleaching her eyebrows.
The throwback bathroom selfie showed Ella looking glum and with her normally dark eyebrows almost invisible.
Alongside the photo, she wrote: "Me at 21 is the same but no eyebrows," before adding: "Never let me do that again."
She then posted an alarming snapshot of herself with painful-looking pink eyebrows which appeared to have had an allergic reaction to the bleach. "Like.... No," Ella wrote.

She's embraced her unibrow and walked cat walks in Paris proudly displaying her full brow. "When I was younger I would pluck my middle brow area," she told People. "But I recently stopped and it's amazing. I think everyone should just embrace their little unibrows."

"As someone who, like a lot of young girls out there, had self-confidence issues, it is intimidating and scary to go into this world that is hyper-focused on you and the body."

The knitwear designer has described herself as having "really weird tattoos and kind of a funky haircut," and yet she's forged a career as a model after her appearance in a Miu Miu coat at the presidential inauguration went viral.

The daughter of Doug Emhoff hopes that by making waves in the modeling world she can give others the confidence to be themselves too. "Growing up, I never saw myself as someone stylish, at all," she told Elle. "Obviously, I loved fashion and cared a lot about it. But I was really into doing my own thing and being really comfortable in my own body, you know?"

As for finding your own sense of style, she says people shouldn't get boxed in by what they wear. "It's not the actual clothes you're wearing. It's the confidence you have, and the ability to live your life, in those clothes."
