Today viewers finally got to see Jenna Bush Hager‘s exciting new look after the daytime host underwent a dramatic transformation live on the show, all thanks to Leslie Bibb‘s hairstylist.

Like many other White Lotus fans, Bush Hager was inspired by Bibb’s signature bob, cut and styled by celebrity hairstylist Chris McMillan. So, they had McMillan stop by the show Monday to cut Bush Hager’s hair during the live broadcast.

Bush Hager debuted the new look during Tuesday’s (June 17) broadcast, during which she admitted she’s “feeling a little strange.”

“You know that ’90s movie Single White Female where you try to copy somebody to such an extent. You made this hairstyle so famous and then I used your hairstylist to get the same haircut and I’m feeling a little strange,” she told Bibb.

Much like she did during the haircut, Bibb gave Bush Hager an empowering pep talk.

“No, you don’t look strange. You look sexy, and powerful, and glamorous. And I kept saying it yesterday, you’re a badass! You look so great!” the actress told Bush Hager. “It’s a big deal to do that.”

Bush Hager went on to admit that she’s feeling “a little embarrassed” by all of the attention she’s gotten for the haircut. She even shared that there were a lot of “fake tears” and criticisms from her children when they saw her new haircut.

“Are those real tears? Your children are monsters! They’re monsters,” Bibb jokingly responded.

She later asked Bush Hager if she felt “lighter” after getting the haircut.

“I felt lighter. There’s a lot of change happening and I feel a little embarrassed by the attention. And I know the people who work for me are like, ‘Mother loves attention,’ but I felt a little embarrassed,” the Today host admitted.

Just before getting her haircut on Monday’s show, Bush Hager joked that the new look will help her shed all of the changes that happened this year – including, for example, Hoda Kotb‘s shocking retirement and exit from Today.

“I’ve been through change, I’m gonna wash the Hoda right out of my hair!” she joked, before quickly adding, “I love her and she’s still my friend, but maybe it’s time for a whole new look.”

Today with Jenna & Friends airs on weekdays at 10/9c on NBC.
