Halle Berry shocked fans by debuting a drastic haircut at the 2021 Oscars. But as it turns out, her bold bob and baby bangs weren't all that they seemed.
On Saturday, the actress shared a selfie via Instagram that showed her with long, highlighted strands underneath a dark hat. It's unclear in the photo if she was also sporting bangs, but her hair is undoubtedly longer than it was just last weekend.
"Oscar bob…just kidding 😂," Berry wrote as the photo's caption.
Berry previously wore the shorter hairstyle on April 25 with a strapless purple dress designed by Dolce & Gabbana. The dress had a ruched bodice, a V-shaped neckline, a semi-sheer skirt, and a giant bow attached to its waistline.

Baby bangs - or short strands of hair that hang across the forehead, and are shorter than typical bangs - are generally controversial, as some people find them unappealing.
But Berry didn't seem to mind when people poked fun at her daring hair choice. She laughed at jokes online and even tweeted: "love you guys and your memes. xx."

At the time of writing, it's unclear if Berry wore a short wig to the recent award show, or if she got extensions afterwards. Her hairstylist Sara Seward didn't immediately return Insider's request to clarify.
On the day of the Oscars, however, Berry and Seward both shared photos of chopped hair strands lying on the floor - so it's likely the latter.
