A live TV makeover? Jenna Bush Hager was hair for it.
In fact, the Today host agreed to ditch her long locks for blunt bob after an on-the-fly consultation, according to hairstylist Chris McMillan, who was the one to make the cut after talking with producers.
“I literally got 10 minutes with her,” he told E! News’ Francesca Amiker in an exclusive interview, explaining that he only “blow dried her roots” as preparation before stepping in front of the camera. “I just ripped the Band-Aid off and did it on air.”
So, why did he choose a bob for Jenna, who typically wore her signature blonde hair down in loose waves? “Leslie Bibb was co-hosting for two days and her CLB—c–ty little bob—was the inspiration,” Chris quipped. “People are, for the summer, going for a chop above the shoulders.”
Besides, a bob is a safe choice for those who want to experiment with shorter hair, but are not quite ready for a pixie cut.
