Did Luann de Lesseps Get Bangs?

Luann de Lesseps occasionally switches things up with a top knot or an incredibly long ponytail. But for the most part, The Real Housewives of New York City cast member tends to stick to her signature short, windswept brunette locks, which is why we were a bit shocked to see her casually rocking a brand new hairstyle in the preview for next week’s episode. 

In the preview for the July 30 episode of RHONY, which you can watch in the video above, the women are headed to Mexico for a trip that will surely be one to remember. However, before we get to see the sneak peek of their dramatic vacation, we catch a glimpse of Luann rocking what appears to be a new ‘do. 

For the most part, Luann’s hair doesn’t look too far off from what we’re used to seeing. From the back, you might totally miss that she had made a change at all. If you watch the clip closely, you’ll notice that Luann seems to be sitting in a salon chair sporting a piecey fringe. Did the Countess get bangs?

Luann normally has some shorter, face-framing layers in her hair, but this might just be the only time we’ve seen her with true bangs. Time will tell whether Lu’s new look is here to stay, or was simply a temporary whim. (Perhaps she was prepping for a cabaret show?) Either way, the Countess is totally working this chic, glossy hairstyle, and we can’t wait to learn absolutely everything about it next week.
