Cyrus, known for her diverse hairstyles, including a recent peekaboo style, initially sported a two-toned hairdo featured on her Endless Summer Vacation album cover. However, she has now embraced a complete brunette look.

In an interview with Hoda Kotb during an "Today Show" appearance, the "Plastic Hearts" singer revealed that her return to brunette was a long-anticipated move, with the delay due to her godmother, Dolly Parton.

She recalled, "I've never seen Dolly scared before, but I told her, you know, 'At the end of the year, I was wanting to do something different. I think I'm going to dye my hair brunette.' She acted like I told her the worst news you could imagine."
