Demi Lovato has debuted a fierce new hairstyle before jumping into 2022.
The singer, 29, showed off their fresh buzzcut in a stunning new selfie over the weekend to their 122 million Instagram followers.
Admitting the hairdo is a "fresh start", Lovato stunned fans with the bold new look.
Striking a series of poses against a snowy backdrop in the FaceTime-recorded video, the singer showed off the new short chop, which they later modeled in a mirror selfie on their Instagram Story.
Lovato's new look comes after a big year for the musician. In addition to dropping their seventh studio album Dancing with the Devil - their first album in four years.
What's more, Lovato came out as gender non-binary in May, changing their pronouns to they/them.
The new hairstyle may come as a surprise to some, but to die-hard Lovato fans it was a long time coming.
The singer previously opened up about the pressure they previously felt to fit into a "sexy, feminine" image before they came to terms with their gender identity.

"I really believe that when I overdosed in 2018, it was because I was ignoring my truth. I went to such great lengths to suppress who I really am to fit this sexy, feminine pop star and actress image that others had assigned for me that I never truly identified with," Lovato told People in June.
"I did it though because I thought that's how it was supposed to be." They went on to add that they've since learned "how important it is to live your truth and not suppress yourself."
"You can only carry on like that for so long before it comes spilling out and manifesting, sometimes negatively, in other ways," Lovato added.
More recently, the singing sensation has been vocal about their love for learning all about extraterrestrials, previously encouraging the world to stop using the term "aliens" as it's offensive.
Lovato has opened up about the prospect of dating an extraterrestrial, saying they would not rule it out if it came down to it.
Appearing on Face to Face With Becky G on Facebook Watch, the singer jokingly admitted they wanted to use meditation as a way to potentially make contact with an ET.
Wasting no time, Becky G asks her longtime friend whether they'd ever consider dating an ET if they checked off all the boxes of an ideal partner.
"Absolutely, I'm so tired of humans and their human bulls**t. I'm so over it... bring me an ET," Demi said, before adding that the dating experience would truly be "out of this world."
