Who amongst us hasn't spent a dangerous amount of time of late contemplating a DIY hair transformation, whether that's cutting new bangs, dabbling in hair dye, or just buzzing the whole shebang off? One Bella Hadid settled for the former, proving herself a pretty impressive hair stylist in the process. Here's Hadid last week, with a tousled, bang-free bob:

Hadid had side swept bangs in the not-too-distant past, so it's likely she was trimming them rather than plucking them out of nowhere, the latter a much risker endeavour if you're not a professional.

Question: Where was this advice in 2011?!
