Katie Price shows off short natural hair before getting 500 extensions sewn into her scalp
KATIE Price has given fans a glimpse of her natural short hair before 500 extensions were sewn into her scalp.
Glamorous Katie filmed the incredible transformation for her latest video as she sat in a salon chair for 11 HOURS and became a blonde again.
The star joked she was "literally bald" underneath the hundreds of hair extensions but said her hair needed to be "stripped back" in order to get her glossy new mane.
She revealed: "Normally people get about 150 (extensions), but people working here know that I have really short and curly hair, if I get 150 it just looks like I have half a head of hair."
The former glamour model, 42, headed to the LA Hair Studio in Sussex to return to being blonde, admitting she needed a makeover to help her recover from the stresses in her personal life - including son Harvey's recent stint in hospital.
She said: "Considering my house was burgled... Then my mum's been ill then the drama with my boobs, and now Harvey.
"I want a new me. And a new me means changing my hair colour."
Katie has never before been seen with short hair, yet fans loved the momentary look when they commented beneath her video.
One viewer said: "The part where it showed your own shorter hair ..is thought was beautiful you really suit short hair Katie."
Another commented: "I really think you'd look gorgeous with light brown hair with some blonde highlights and ALOT shorter."
Other fans simply praised her candid video, with one writing: "I love it when successful people are super down to earth. Love you Katie, and hope your family is all doing well."
Katie and her hairdresser ploughed on with adding layers upon layers of hair extensions while eating pizza - and Katie even had a manicure to pass the time.
At the end of her marathon hair appointment Katie showed off her glimmering locks - that reached down to her stomach.
She said: "This is my new look. 24 inches long ... I'm so excited!
"Right, I'm off to the beach! Actually no, it's dark, I've been here for 11 hours."
Katie captioned her video: "I made my long-awaited return to my hairdressers! I hope they were as happy to see me as I was to see them!"
She said that she was "so happy" to report that Harvey's condition has improved, and he had been moved from the ICU.
Sharing a trio of photos of herself and Harvey, which were taken today, Katie wrote: "Hey everyone update my @officialmrharveyprice baby boy, he has been incredibly strong and brave and this evening he has improved, I’m so happy.
