Spoiler alert: It's time to say goodbye to the blond and hello to the red.

I have always felt like a red head my whole life, even to the point that I've thought that my future daughter would 100% be a red head!" she wrote to her followers. "I've seriously talked about doing this for 6 years, ask anyone who knows me...and now that I'm on this new journey, exploring and finding out who I truly am, I said screw it!"
