Pamela Anderson has bid farewell to her iconic long blonde hair after debuting a new hairstyle on Thursday.
The 57-year-old actress was previously known for her platinum blonde, mermaid locks with stacks of volume, but in recent years, she has been sporting a more subtle, ash blonde finish.
After changing up her locks with face-framing bangs in December, the former Baywatch actress has gone one step further and chopped inches off her hair.

While the hat hid most of Pamela's hair, the shorter length was evident and beautifully framed her face.
The Last Showgirl star made a vow in 2023 to scale back her makeup look and has remained loyal to her word ever since.

Last March, Pamela opened up again about her decision to strip back to her natural beauty in an interview with CR Fashion Book.
"I think, well, I was doing it for me," she said of stepping out at Paris Fashion Week in 2023 wearing no make-up.

However, not everyone was on board with her decision to begin with. "My agents and even my kids were like, 'Mom, you can't, you need the glam team!'" she explained.
"And I said, 'No, what are you talking about? The fact that you guys are saying that to me makes me not want to do it more! I'm going to do a fresh face, no makeup, not pretend no makeup.'

She also confessed that she "was doing it for the girls," and felt women were "morphing into this kind of similar look".
"To be brave is contagious," Pamela added. "And I found that it resonated even though it wasn't my real intention to make a big statement. And I'm glad that it had a positive message. It's not world peace or anything, but it was a little moment."

"I am much more comfortable in my own skin, but I also am in an industry that really focuses on beauty. And I thought, 'I'm going to challenge beauty,'" she explained.
"I think challenging ourselves is what keeps us young and beautiful. And I think, really genuinely, beauty does come from within, and you don't have to play the game."
