Over the years, Beyoncé has been known for her love of a variety of transformative styles, including her fashion sense, overall aesthetic, and hairstyles.
The 43-year-old music icon recently showed off a variety of looks in her GQ magazine cover shoot, many of which featured a complete bleach blonde hair transformation.
While some of the shots highlighted her classic beauty look with her hair styled in bountiful curls and waves, one hairstyle stood out the most in new outtakes from the shoot and behind-the-scenes footage shared by the singer.

Among the many classic looks, the singer showed off a sculpted bob of hair, larger than life and styled into a sleek, sharp shape.
The hairstyle, combined with dazzling teardrop earrings, a brown suit and a cowboy hat, further accentuated her Cowboy Carter aesthetic that has been taking the look by storm lately.
“That hairstyle!!!!” one of her fans commented on the social media video, while another added: “SHE’S NOT!!!” and yet another said: “That bob is killer.”
Recently, the singer has ventured into the hair world, launching her own haircare line, Secreto, inspired by her childhood spent working in hair salons with her mother, Tina Knowles.
She told the magazine about her new line: “When I started my haircare brand Secreto, I wanted people to know what it does for ordinary people and their hair. I made a conscious decision at the time of launch not to appear in advertising.”

Beyoncé also recently launched a line of whiskey called Sir Davis, named after her great-grandfather, Davis Hogue. As she dips into the entrepreneurial world, she’s more mindful than ever of the pros and cons she can endure.
“There’s a big difference between men’s and women’s business journeys,” she says. “Men often have the luxury of being seen as the strategists and business architects. They’re given the space to focus on the product, the team, and the business plan.”

“Meanwhile, women, especially those in the spotlight, are often pigeonholed as the face of a brand or a marketing tool. For me, it’s important to continue with the same approach I’ve taken in music and apply what I’ve learned to business.”

“I choose integrity over shortcuts. I’ve learned that true success comes from creating something authentic and unique, not relying on a name. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about being revolutionary.”
