Reality TV star Kourtney Kardashian recently shared an update on her COVID-19 recovery, which included a significant hair transformation. She revealed on Instagram that she decided to cut her own blunt bangs while feeling unwell. “I always get the urge to cut my hair when I have COVID,” the 46-year-old ‘Kardashians’ star confessed in a post on Friday. She accompanied this statement with a photo showcasing freshly cut pieces of her dark hair scattered on the floor, indicating a DIY haircut.
In a subsequent post, Kardashian unveiled her new look: a stylish set of blunt bangs. Posing for a makeup-free mirror selfie, she captioned the image “Witchy season,” hinting at a new vibe or perhaps a playful nod to the upcoming autumn season.
The bold new hairstyle garnered attention from her husband, Travis Barker, who expressed his approval with a supportive emoji. Fans also chimed in on her Instagram post, with comments ranging from admiration for her “witchy season” look to playful remarks about her frequent COVID-19 infections. Some users also made lighthearted comments about her embracing different “seasons,” referencing witches, vampires, and mummies.
This isn’t the first time Kourtney Kardashian has experimented with her hair. She previously sported a chic bob in 2021 and even tried a platinum blonde look in March 2023. While she hasn’t explicitly linked these past hair changes to COVID-19, her recent posts highlight her candid approach to sharing her experiences with the virus.
Kardashian has been open about her previous COVID-19 diagnosis in June 2022, detailing her recovery methods, including vitamins, hydration, and following her grandmother’s advice to “starve my fever.” She also contracted the virus again in September 2023 while pregnant with her son, Rocky Thirteen, who was born in November of that year.
