On the Season 15 reunion of The Real Housewives of Orange County, Braunwyn Windham-Burke  wore her blonde hair in a sky-high ponytail that hung down to her waist. And even when she wasn't dressed in her fiercest reunion fashion, Braunwyn was known to wear her hair in waves that tumbled past her shoulders. But in her recent Instagram shares, the RHOC alum's hair has appeared much shorter than ever before — and her followers have some questions. 

How to Watch

To review, the mother of seven took to Instagram Stories in late July to share a snap of herself rocking short, side-swept waves and a few swipes of neon-hued sunscreen. Later, she appeared on her feed in a black bikini top and a rainbow-hued sarong. Clutching curls that barely grazed her ears, Braunwyn wrote: "And people wonder where the kids get their curly hair from." 

But when a follower asked if the Orange County mama has had her hair cut, Braunwyn's daughter Bella put the snipping rumor to rest. "It's her front layers [in the picture] and the rest [of her hair] is [pulled] back," Bella explained. Mystery solved — at, ahem, long last.
