Cara Delevingne 'Starts Over' With New Hair As Sobriety Journey Progresses

Cara Delevingne has no problem starting over!

The actress became the latest Hollywood star to take their tresses to the chopping block in search of a new style. She debuted a brand-new hairdo on social media earlier this week, and her followers and fans could not help but fawn over her trendy appearance. The development comes nearly a month after she opened up about her struggles with alcohol.

While the sobriety journey can be difficult, nobody knows better than Delevingne how helpful a change in appearance can be on a recovering alcoholic's outlook on life. To that end, the British model opted to chop off a chunk of her blond curls and add more color, staying true to the "start over" theme for her March Vogue cover story.

In an image shared by celebrity hairstylist Riawna Capri to debut the blonder and shorter haircut, the "Life in a Year" actress sported a fierce pose. The pose was more potent by the red blazer she donned over a cleavage-baring black tank top.

She sported the perfect face beat that matched her blazer, adding a touch of eyeliner, mascara, and nude lipstick. For accessories, the "Paper Towns" star rocked a gold Cuban link chain and a silver necklace with a woman's figure as its pendant. 

"Look who else is going short for summer, This Beauty [CaraDelevingne!!!] ✨ Who's next!?! ??‍♀️ I'm ready with my new #901shears! ?," Capri penned beneath the April 3 post shared via Instagram.

The comments quickly filled up with praise for the talented stylist as one person gushed that it was the "best" that Delevingne had "ever looked." A second commenter exclaimed, "OH MY GAWD! She is my girl crush," A third noted that the 30-year-old beauty's "cut and color were nicely done!"

Others lauded her for being "stunning," "beautiful," and "cute." As mentioned above, the "Carnival Row" alum previously spoke about her four-month sobriety journey that began with her decision to enter rehab.

Per The Blast, the 2012 Model of the Year at the British Fashion Awards was not shy to admit that she struggled with rehab, revealing that she was "always into the quick fix of healing, going to a weeklong retreat or a trauma course."

The Teen Choice Award winner stated that the quick fixes only brought her temporary relief without "ever really" getting to the "deeper stuff." After researching, she discovered that a 12-step treatment program would work better for her, so she went for that.

The Hammersmith native further recalled that her alcohol problem began at age seven after she drank champagne at a family wedding. Even though she realized she had a problem in her adult years, seeing a shoeless picture of herself last year jolted her to her senses.

She ultimately reached out to her loved ones for assistance, with her friends from her teen years coming to her rescue. Delevingne recounted her and her friends having a good cry before they told her that she deserved a "chance at joy."

The Cinemacon Rising Star of The Year Award winner checked into a rehabilitation facility after that, remaining sober ever since.

Last month, The Blast reported that the ELLE Style Award recipient discussed the challenges of growing up queer in her documentary, "Planet Sex." The second episode of the recently released series saw the Della Vite co-founder stating:

"Despite being queer, I haven't had the opportunity to fully embrace a queer lifestyle. I'm on a very personal journey into my sexuality. You may or may not know I have had relationships with both men and women, but I still struggle with being open about how much I love women."

Throughout the documentary's run, the 2013 most googled fashion figure engages in conversations with advocates and experts worldwide about topics related to attraction and sexuality.

Regarding where she stands on her sexuality, Delevingne maintained that she is "queer," explaining that the label gave her a sense of liberation and flexibility that did not place undue pressure on how she defined herself.
