Good Morning Britain host Susanna Reid has debuted a longer hairstyle for the new year.
The presenter hosted today's (January 6) programme with co-host Ed Balls. After sharing a sneak peek of her new look on Instagram, Reid took advice from a pop icon and rocked extensions to "turn back time" after chopping her mane to a bob two years ago.
On her social platform, Reid wrote: "NEW YEAR NEW HAIR! After having THE CHOP in 2023, pop idol Cher told me women should keep their long hair so I am turning back time and going LONG for 2025 with hair extensions put in by @christinabhair."
"Let me know what you think – and see you tomorrow @gmb."

However, Reid's co-host Balls wasn't seemingly a fan, sharing his preference for Susanna's shorter hairdo and going as far as contradicting the Goddess of Pop.

"I really like the short hair," Balls said on the show.
"Do you remember when we interviewed Cher and Cher said, 'Keep your hair long?' I thought, 'No you're wrong, Cher.'"
It seems as though Reid has forgiven him, as she shared a picture smiling and posing with him behind the scenes at the studio in a subsequent Instagram post.
"What a morning – even if @edballs isn't a fan of the new hair!" she joked, adding a wink emoji.

However, Reid's new look was a success amongst her fans and fellow celebrities.
"Looking fab!!!" commented GMB's Kate Garraway, while presenter Trisha Goddard shared: "I'm a big fan of extensions, so yay!!!" and GMB's Dr Amir Khan posted a series of fire emojis.
Good Morning Britain airs live from 6am weekdays on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player.
