Chrissy Teigen chops off her beautiful long hair for the first time in decades… after revealing she’s sober again

by

Chrissy Teigen showed off a fresh, straight haircut on her Instagram Stories Wednesday.

The 40-year-old TV personality and cookbook author, who usually wears hair extensions for a long hairstyle, seemed to really enjoy her new, shorter look in a video. The clip showed her relaxing on a couch in a black sports bra and a comfortable blanket.

She wore minimal makeup and her one accessory appeared to be a pair of delicate gold necklaces.

Teigen, recently cast in the new version of Star Search, repeatedly styled her freshly washed hair to emphasize its straight, blunt cut.

‘chop chop feeling so light,’ she wrote in the caption.

Chrissy Teigen, a mother of four children – two daughters and two sons – with her husband John Legend, thanked her hairstylist, Irinel de Leon, and Priscilla Valles, who does her hair extensions, for her look.

‘My babies thank you!’ Teigen wrote over the post.

Chrissy Teigen last removed her hair extensions in February 2025, debuting a stylish bob at the Grammys.

Chrissy Teigen has publicly discussed her hair treatments, sharing last year that she underwent a procedure to lower her hairline.

It served to explain the photo she posted of herself in the hospital with a bandaged head.

Hey everyone! A lot of you noticed my hospital photo and were understandably curious since I didn’t explain it. I just wanted to let you know I had a procedure to lower my hairline, as you can see from the stitches.

Chrissy Teigen shared that she had experienced hair loss after having her babies, so she chose to have her hairline subtly advanced to address it.

She explained that she’s experienced significant hair loss at the front of her head, leaving it very thin. She jokingly added that any hair found on the carpet is always from her extensions.

Chrissy Teigen recently changed her appearance after sharing that she’s sober once more, having previously resumed drinking after a period of abstinence.

She first stopped drinking in December 2020, but unfortunately, she started having problems with alcohol again.

She says Carl Radke from Summer House transformed her life after openly discussing his journey to sobriety on her podcast, Self-Conscious.

She wrote a long message on Instagram, starting by expressing her gratitude to Carl Radke. She thanked him not only for all the years he shared on Bravo, but also for his honest and open discussion of his personal journey with getting sober.

I’ve struggled with this before. I managed to stay sober for over a year, but then I started drinking again. I told myself I could do it responsibly – maybe a glass of wine with my husband on a special occasion, or a toast on birthdays. I just wanted to enjoy my life, and I think that was where I went wrong. I started associating drinking with treating myself or celebrating good things.

She revealed she started reaching for the wine on a frequent, regular basis.

Chrissy Teigen described losing track of time, starting at 6 PM and eventually realizing it was lunchtime. By 11 AM, she felt the cycle was starting all over again, expressing her frustration with a curse word.

Teigen’s new job on Star Search spurred her to quit drinking because she didn’t want to mess it up

Honestly, the moment I talked to Carl, I just… stopped drinking. It was like a switch flipped! I was actually in talks to be on Star Search, which was HUGE, and I knew, absolutely knew, if I got on that show – if I actually got that incredible chance – there was no way, no way I’d have alcohol anywhere near my dressing room. It just wouldn’t happen. I was so focused, and I needed to be perfect!

Teigen noted how it feels different this time around.

Looking back, she felt the biggest change was the lack of fanfare this time around. When she first took charge, it was thrilling – the initial energy really motivated her and kept her focused. But the second time… she wasn’t so sure what to make of it.

I’ve noticed something that really resonates with me – it’s about what happens when you start to doubt yourself, or when the people around you do. It’s like a slow fade, where enthusiasm just… disappears, and everyone becomes hesitant to get their hopes up. It’s a tough spot to be in, when that happens.

It’s like getting back together with someone you used to trash-talk – eventually, everyone just loses interest because the situation is so unpredictable.
