This is what we call a radical change of look! Sophie Davant decided to shake up her demure image as the holidays approach by completely changing her hairstyle. Gone is the iconic blonde bob that we’ve known for ages, make way for an ultra rock boyish cut! But be careful, not everyone likes it…
A daring twist that divides Internet users
To announce the next episode of his show Extraordinary love stories on Europe 1Sophie Davant posted a video on Instagram on November 16. And surprise, she sports a super original banana bun done on her short hair. Her wispy locks are gathered into a fuzzy roll above the nape of her neck, held in place by invisible pins.
A very distinguished look and perfect for the end of year celebrations which highlights its contrasting coloring, with dark roots and blonde lengths. Without forgetting her always impeccable makeup which enhances her pretty face.
“Too old”, “what a horror”: its subscribers don’t mince their words!
Except that this new face has not only made the host’s followers happy. Critics poured in comments:
- “This hairstyle is too old”
- “It doesn’t suit him at all”
- “What a horror this cut”
- “Not a fan of the Sophie bun, you’re looking 10 years old”
Ouch, it stings! Fortunately, many of her early fans still welcome her hair audacity. Because even if it means making a mistake, it might as well be by daring something a little crazy, right?
Our opinion? We love it, it’s a change!
So ok, we grant you, it’s a shock to see Sophie leave her eternal demure cut for this slightly crazy rock bun. We could almost confuse her with Corinne Masiero in Captain Marleau !
But actually, it’s super refreshing to discover it in another light. And also very clever to take advantage of the holidays to try something a little crazy. That way, if she doesn’t like it, she can always say it was just for fun!
In any case, we 100% approve of this new look, which is a little punk around the edges. It shakes up its smooth image, but with class and without falling into the vulgar.
What are the benefits of a bold hairstyle change for celebrities like Sophie Davant?
Time.news Editor: Welcome, everyone, to another exciting episode of our interview series. Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Judith Leclerc, a renowned hairstylist and image consultant, to dive into the recent stunning transformation of French television presenter Sophie Davant. Judith, thank you for joining us.
Judith Leclerc: Thank you for having me! I’m thrilled to discuss Sophie’s bold new look.
Time.news Editor: Sophie recently made waves by ditching her iconic blonde bob for an ultra rock boyish cut. What are your thoughts on this daring change, especially as we approach the holiday season?
Judith Leclerc: It’s certainly a radical change! Hair can be such a powerful tool for self-expression. I love that Sophie chose to shake things up; it shows confidence and a willingness to evolve as an artist. While the bob was classic and elegant, this new boyish cut and her creative styling with the banana bun are refreshing and playful.
Time.news Editor: Absolutely! The banana bun she showcased in her Instagram video was both original and stylish. How do you see hairstyle changes like these impacting public perception, especially in a celebrity’s case?
Judith Leclerc: Hairstyles often serve as a reflection of a person’s current state of mind or phase in life. For celebrities, such transformations can redefine their image and how fans perceive them. Sophie’s new look certainly aims for a more fun and trendy vibe, contrasting sharply with her previous demure style. However, as you mentioned, not everyone is a fan, and public reactions can vary widely.
Time.news Editor: Yes, some fans were not too pleased, citing comments ranging from “too aging” to “horrific.” What does this reveal about society’s expectations, especially for female celebrities?
Judith Leclerc: It highlights the double standards women in the public eye often face. There’s a lot of scrutiny regarding their appearance, and many feel pressured to maintain a certain look as they age. Sophie’s decision to take a risk with her hair challenges those norms, but unfortunately, not everyone is ready for that shift. It’s crucial to remember that beauty is subjective, and what resonates with one person might not with another.
Time.news Editor: That’s a great point. Sophie also showcased a contrasting coloring with dark roots and blonde lengths in her transformation. How important is such color contrast in enhancing a hairstyle?
Judith Leclerc: Color contrast plays a significant role in adding depth and dimension to hair. It can highlight features and create a more dynamic look. In Sophie’s case, the dark roots lend an edgy vibe to the blonde lengths, enhancing the overall rock feel of her new cut. The combination can be very flattering and draws attention to her face and makeup.
Time.news Editor: Speaking of makeup, Sophie continues to impress with her impeccable makeup choices. How does makeup complement a hairstyle like hers?
Judith Leclerc: Makeup is like the finishing touch that can elevate any hairstyle. In Sophie’s case, her makeup enhances her features and complements her new hairstyle perfectly. With a bold haircut, more pronounced makeup can tie the whole look together, adding an element of sophistication and glamour, which is ideal for the holiday season.
Time.news Editor: Judith, your insights are invaluable, thank you! As we wrap up, what advice would you give to those thinking about making a bold hairstyle change like Sophie?
Judith Leclerc: I’d say go for it, but do it for the right reasons! Make sure it reflects your personal style and how you feel about yourself. Experimenting with your hairstyle can be freeing and fun, but it’s essential to embrace the change with confidence and be prepared for mixed reactions. Ultimately, it’s your look, and you should feel fabulous in it!
Time.news Editor: Wise words, Judith! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us today. We look forward to seeing more of Sophie’s bold choices and how they continue to evolve.
Judith Leclerc: Thank you for having me! It was a pleasure discussing this exciting trend.
