Has Jessica Biel Been Hiding Her Curls From Us All This Time?

While Jessica Biel is an amazing actor, she's also highly skilled at keeping things on the down-low. Remember when she had her second baby with Justin Timberlake in the summer of 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and no one knew about it? These days, it seems you can't trust any news until it's confirmed directly from the source on Instagram.

Now, she's adding her hair looks to her resume of things she's good at keeping secret. The Sinner actor posted a gorgeous no-makeup selfie with what could very well be her natural hair texture on February 22. She has a huge smile on her face, and her hair is curly with small ringlets falling past her shoulders. She might have recently gotten some highlights, too, with the photo featuring her natural dark brown roots — but the hair framing her face is a perfectly blended blonde. 

"That's why her hair is so big… it's full of secrets," she captioned the photo, referencing the 2004 hit film Mean Girls while pointing to the fact that she, along with Justin Timberlake, keeps her life together relatively quiet compared to other celebrities.  

The comments section was full of support for the actor's seemingly new hairstyle, with some followers loving her big hair that takes us back to the 1980s (the decade in which she was born) and others asking which products she used to get that volume. One commenter even wrote, "You better not have been wearing your stunt wig without me," leaving us to wonder what's really happening with this new look and if she's working on a new project. Natural curls, a curly perm, a wig — anything's possible. 

This selfie came as news to us, as Biel is known for her perpetually straight hair, which she sometimes styles in soft beach waves. It's clear now more than ever that the actor can rock any hairstyle. Knowing her secretive history, this might be wishful thinking, but we're hoping she will post another dramatic hair reveal soon.
