It's been a hot minute since we saw Made in Chelsea's Issy Francis Baum on our screens and she's looking VERY different nowadays.

The reality star has waved goodbye to her long brunette locks and joined the blonde, or should we say bronde side.

Posting a hair transformation video, Issy revealed the reason behind her hair change.

"Okay so I did something a little crazy and got my hair dyed at Hershesons.

"I've just been really bored of myself lately and I wanted to do something a little different especially for summer and just to make myself feel brand new, so it was time to go and get a new colour."

She went on to explain that she had a bronde balayage and while it's giving hot girl summer, she was in the hairdressers for half the day.

"I was here for a total of six hours. Six hours. But that's just because I have so much hair.

"So much hair that I needed to get a little bit cut off because it was looking a bit ratty on the ends.

"At first it was a little bit of a shock. I feel like you need to let new hair marinate but I actually love it. I feel like I look so mature and I'm a bit obsessed with it."

Someone else said, "It’s so classy ! I’m obsessed 😍."

Another commented, "Hot rich sophisticated vibes."

A fourth added, "Love it! It makes you look like you belong on a yacht in the French Riviera 😁."

Issy quit Made in Chelsea in 2023 after just three series and rocky relationships with Miles Nazaire and Harvey Armstrong.

Issy and Miles appeared to hit it off but she was left in tears when he ended things and moved on with MAFS Australia star Ella May Ding.

She then started dating Harvey but he also left her devastated, those Chelsea boys ey?

Following all the drama Issy left the show and told her Instagram followers, "I am touched at the amount of messages I've received about [not coming back for MIC's next season].

"I am just taking a break guys. I might be back, I might not, but for now I'm just having a well-needed break mentally and to focus on other things. Thank you always for all the love and support."

And after leaving the show it appears that Issy may have fallen out with her former BFF Inga Valentiner.
