People aren't happy after seeing first images of Harry Styles' shaved head

‘People are feeling sick please delete this’ is the kind of comment you might expect on some gruesome viral clip or TikTok challenge gone wrong, not a photo of a celeb at a concert.

But in the world of Harry Styles’ fandom that’s exactly what it is. Oh yes, fans are absolutely spiralling because the guy’s got a new hair cut.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve danced at my share of his concerts and listened to ‘Late Night Talking’ on the regular but I’m not sure I’m this level of fan.

The type of fan that mourns Styles’ hair. But people really are upset about how it looks now compared to As It Was, and I respect it.

Pretty much since the singer was on The X Factor auditioning as a solo artist to when Simon Cowell put him in One Direction and then throughout his entire career with the band, we’ve known him to have his curly head of hair.

Even throughout his whole time solo, he’s had his curly hair. So since we’ve all known who he was from back in 2010, he’s had curly hair.

And now, I hate to break it to you, the curly locks are gone.

Styles headed to U2’s Las Vegas Sphere concert with his new girlfriend recently and debuted a shaved head.

Yep, the ‘Watermelon Sugar’ singer has a buzz cut - bet that wasn’t on your 2023 bingo card.

Photos from TMZ show Styles with his arm round Bones and All actor Taylor Russell.

The shaved snaps were shared yesterday (9 November) and fans absolutely lost it on X.

One wrote: “Now he’s just Styles,” as others compared him to Sid from Toy Story.

Another even spiralled: “Delete this please there are a lot of people asking you to delete this, please delete it I’m begging you there are people passing out, there are people crying delete it please delete please there are people feeling sick with this everyone is asking you to delete.”

Some made jokes about his mega fame in the US as they used the accent to say: “Harry isn’t hairy now.”

Another even compared him to his former bandmate: “He tryna be Zayn so bad.”

Others simply ranted: “HELPPP OMG.”

As one put: “Never in my 13 years of being a Harry fan did I ever expect to see headlines like this.”

And many of his fans seemed to call this a ‘private family matter’ and asked to be ‘left alone’.

As his fanbase couldn’t seem to contain themselves, one slammed: “Harry’s shaved head making more noise than some people’s music.”
