Kym Herjavec, the professional dancer from Dancing With the Stars (DWTS), surprised her fans on March 11, 2025, with a dramatic new hairstyle. In a video shared on Instagram Stories, the 48-year-old revealed that she had cut her hair short, stating, “So, I just chopped all my hair off.” She added with a laugh, “I’ve gone darker, and chopped it off. It looked great when the hairdresser did it. It was like, dead straight and really cool.”
In the clip, Herjavec wore her hair in large curling waves but explained that her natural curls were the true foundation of the look. “My hair’s naturally really curly, so I just blow-dried it, and this is what we’ve got!” she shared. Her formerly long hair is now chin-length, giving her a fresh and elegant new look.
Later, the ballroom star tucked her new style under a hat to attend an Easter show with her 6-year-old twins, Hudson and Haven. She posted a cheerful snapshot on Instagram, captioning it, “Easter show, Here we go!”
Reflecting on Her DWTS Career

Herjavec made her final appearance as a pro on season 24 in 2017.
