Amanda Bynes Flaunts New Tattoo And Major Hair Transformation After Joining OnlyFans

Amanda Bynes has re-emerged on social media with a new tattoo and hairstyle amid her OnlyFans move.

Although the former actress's pals are said to be concerned about her joining the popular platform, Bynes has made it clear she solely aims to connect with fans rather than post explicit content.

After stepping away from acting in 2010, Amanda Bynes is pursuing a career in visual art and recently hosted a pop-up exhibit.

Bynes recently took to her social media page to debut her latest ink and hairstyle for her fans just weeks after launching her OnlyFans account.

Celebrating a decade-long friendship, Bynes explained that she and her best friend Dylan decided to get matching tattoos to honor their bond.

"My best friend Dylan and I have been best friends for 10 years," she shared, "and to mark our best friend's anniversary, we got matching Roman numeral 'Xs' for the number 10."

She added, "I got it on my finger. Dylan got it on her rib cage."

Before showing off her new tattoos, the "Big Fat Liar" actress also excitedly flaunted her grown-out bangs, saying, "I finally grew my bangs out. I'm so excited right now. Oh my god, I can't believe it."

Last month, Bynes surprised her followers by announcing the launch of her own OnlyFans account.

While the platform is widely associated with explicit content, the 39-year-old aims to connect with supporters.

She explained: "I'm doing OnlyFans to chat with my fans through DMs. I won't be posting any sleazy content. Excited to join."

According to reports, fans would have to cough up over $50 per month if they wish to have access to the former  Nickelodeon child star.

OnlyFans has gained notoriety as an adult content sharing platform, and stars like Cardi B, Denise Richards, Iggy Azalea, Bella Thorne, and Bhad Bhabie have joined it and are making "millions" in the process.

Bynes stepped away from acting in 2010, after facing public struggles with mental health and substance use. She was placed under conservatorship by her parents in 2013—a legal arrangement that lasted nine years.

During that period, she studied at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, earning her Associate of Arts degree in 2014. Her conservatorship officially ended in 2022.

Over the years, Bynes has been gradually building momentum toward her new career in the arts. In December 2024, she hosted a pop-up art exhibit that drew attention, including an appearance by Noah Cyrus, Miley Cyrus' younger sister.

According to a source close to the former child star, the event marked a "tremendous step" in her ongoing personal journey.

"She will be going through her mental health struggles for the rest of her life but to be out and about and share with friends and fans and to be around her latest love, her art was exactly what she needed," the insider shared with the Daily Mail.

Bynes has spoken candidly in the past about the personal struggles that contributed to her stepping away from the spotlight.

In a revealing 2015 interview with Paper Magazine, she admitted to misusing Adderall, a prescription medication for ADHD, after developing unhealthy body image issues and a desire to stay thin.

The former actress traced the start of her insecurities back to her role in "She's the Man," a modern take on Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night."

The film required her to portray a teenage girl posing as her twin brother, complete with short hair and facial prosthetics.

"When the movie came out and I saw it, I went into a deep depression for 4-6 months because I didn't like how I looked when I was a boy," she shared, recalling how the experience left her feeling disconnected and deeply self-conscious.

She described it as "a super strange and out-of-body experience. It just really put me into a funk."

Bynes also shared that she began experimenting with substances like ecstasy and cocaine, but it was Adderall that became a serious problem.

"I definitely abused Adderall," she admitted, adding, after "reading an article in a magazine that [called Adderall] 'the new skinny pill' and they were talking about how women were taking it to stay thin. I was like, 'Well, I have to get my hands on that.'"

On a recent appearance on the Fly on the Wall podcast, Taran Killam shared how Bynes played a pivotal role in kickstarting his acting career.

Killam described Bynes as "one of the most talented people I've ever met," adding that his first real acting break came right after high school when he was cast on her hit Nickelodeon sketch series.

"It was my first job," he said. "Literally, the last week of high school, I got cast on her show. We worked together for three weeks then. I went away to college, I didn't have an agent anymore, and I was focused on school. They called me back to do more, they helped me get an agent."

He also recalled their time co-starring in "Big Fat Liar," saying, "She was the best. It was a very important relationship to me in my life. … She's truly one of the best."
