Maine Mendoza seems to embrace her new chapter as a married woman as she traded her signature long locks for a fresh chin-length wavy bob that highlighted her face shape.
A wavy bob is a short haircut that has more volume and texture compared to its straight counterpart, which is best suited for women with high cheekbones. Among the celebrities who pulled off the hairstyle were Zendaya, Rihanna, and Lily Collins, among many others.
Mendoza took to her Instagram account on Tuesday, Aug. 29 to show off her new hairstyle, which was done by hairstylist Celeste Tuviera — whom she considers as her “ninang” or aunt.
“Hey shortyyyy,” her caption read.
The “EAT” host also shared a glimpse of her trip to the salon in a separate post, which showed how Tuviera brought Mendoza’s wavy bob to life.
“Use commute in a sentence. Dati cute lang ako, ngayon lalo akong.. Commute (I used to be cute, but I became… much more cute). Waaaah love the short do! Thank you, ninangchi! @celestetuviera,” she wrote.
Some celebrity friends gave their nod of approval to the newlywed’s new ‘look, among them her former “Eat Bulaga” guest host MJ Lastimosa, and sister-in-law Ria Atayde, as seen in the comments of her post.

The actress tied the knot with actor-turned-politician Arjo Atayde last July 28 of this year, which is a significant date throughout the course of their relationship.
The celebrity couple recently came from their trip in Switzerland, where Atayde attended the premiere of his film “Topakk” at the 76th Locarno Film Festival. EDV
