Katie Piper left her fellow Loose Women co-stars stunned on Wednesday’s show as she unveiled her jaw-dropping hair transformation.
The presenter, 40, has rocked blonde locks but has ditched her signature hairstyle for a new gorgeous brunette look, revealing the makeover on Wednesday’s show. The Loose Women panel were left amazed over the new look with host Christine Lampard joking: “I thought we had a completely new panellist today, as well as Jill Scott, and it was Katie with new hair!”
Talking about her new hair, Katie continued: “It’s the new me, I always feel when you change your hair colour, you’ve got to change your makeup, your jewellery, your wardrobe. I’ve experimented with my hair quite a lot over the years.

“It is something I quite enjoy doing, I never get frightened about it, I mean, I’ve been purple, jet black, white blonde, so yeah… I’ve got different foundations in all my makeup kits depending where I’m going to go [with my hair].”
Katie also took to Instagram to show off her new hair, writing: “New hair, who dis? Ready for today’s @loosewomen”. Katie’s 1.1m followers were quick to go wild over the look. One person said: “Wow great look loving the brunette!”, a different account put: “HOW!! HOW IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO LOOK THIS INSANE BOTH BLONDE AND BRUNETTE!!!” with heart eyes, while another fan wrote: “Beautiful!” Someone else raved: “This is stunning, perfect colour on you!!!!”
It comes as Katie returned to Loose Women in December for the first time since undergoing surgery. The presenter suffered life-changing burns, injuries and blindness in one eye after being attacked with acid in 2008 when she was 24. Katie underwent pioneering surgery to restore her face and vision, but has faced many complications since.
Only recently, Katie underwent tarsorrhaphy surgery in November to her left eye, which joins parts or all of the upper and lower eyelids to completely close the eye. Katie said at the time of the procedure, which is used to help or heal the cornea: “In my case I am trying to preserve the eye, avoid perforation and loosing my eye completely.”
Katie added at the time: “Also, if this helps anyone else…. yes I do sometimes find it hard. I’m ok with looking different to everyone else but operations can sometimes take me back to memories of how this all started and that’s hard mentally.”
Appearing on Loose Women for the first time since the procedure, host Kaye Adams said: “Hello stranger! First of all, Katie, we haven’t seen you for what, five or six weeks?” Katie then explained why she had been absent, discussing her recent procedure. She said: “I had a planned procedure done called tarsorrhaphy, which is a semi-permanent closure of the eye. It’s an operation done in theatre and your eye is fully or partially stitched up.
“Some people might be familiar with it, you normally see it when somebody has disease of the cornea. Closing the eye gives it the optimum environment to heal so I’ve had quite a lot of problems with my eye over the last year and a half. I don’t like to go on about it because there’s always somebody worse off!”
Katie added: “It’s been quite painful so it’s quite a relief for me to finally have it stitched up because it’s a lot more comfortable! It’s not permanent, it’s going to be for just about a year like this then hopefully I can have it opened!”
