Helena Christensenhas a whole new summery look.

The model debuted a huge hair change onInstagramon Wednesday, revealing that she’d cut off several inches of her locks.

In a carousel of photos, Christensen showed off a before photo with her hair down her back, an in-process photo with her niece Sarah-Sofie Sonne, and two after shots with a voluminous, curly lob.

“It felt good 🥵✂️🤪” Christensen, 53, wrote in her caption of her huge hair change, also tagging Sonne in all the photos.

The in-process photo showed Sonne holding the scissors over Christensen’s hair, demonstrating the huge cut she was about to embark on. In an Instagram Story that has since expired, Christensen also recorded the whole cut in action — shot in hyperspeed with Sonne zipping around her to carefully cut her hair.

Under the Danish summer sun, a shorter ‘do is just what Christensen needs to keep cool. She showed off her new look — an effortlessly tousled long bob with her previously straight-edge bangs swept to the side — in two gorgeous selfies.

While the first selfie was fresh-faced and natural, she added a pop of color with a red lip in the second.

After launching her career as a supermodel in the 1990s, Christensen modeled for everyone from Chanel to Versace, Off-White to Prada. She’s shared the runway with names likeNaomi CampbellandCindy Crawford, but perhaps one of her most special modeling moments came when she and her son, Mingus, did ajoint campaign with Victoria’s Secret for Mother’s Day in 2021.

Mingus, 22, whom Christensen shares with exNorman Reedus, has followed in his mother’s footsteps in becoming a model as well, including in this sweet campaign with the lingerie brand.

“What surprised you most about being a mom?” Mingus asked his mom in the brand’s moving video last year.

“I wouldn’t say surprised but overall what a crazy beautiful journey it’s been and how much you’ve taught me compared to what I feel I’ve taught you,” Christensen said. “It’s the best thing ever. So much work. So much beautiful work.”
