This reality TV star is unrecognisable in new snap

It was a case of new hair, who dis?, for one of Australia’s most recognisable reality TV stars today.

The glowing blonde shared a photo of herself after getting new hair extensions, a fresh tan, whitened teeth and professional makeup, and caused a few followers to do a double take.

If you haven’t already recognised her, it’s former Bachelorette Ali Oetjen, and she got a little reflective on Instagram after freshening up her look.

“I have these epiphanies or strong intuition feelings & have to share because I get so excited & get such clarity,” she wrote alongside the photo.

“By stopping our mental block & going with our energy flow, we believe whole heartedly, we feel openly, we say what we mean(without hurting) instead of what we “think” should be said! I do this all the time & catch myself out on it & I’m so much happier!

“Go with YOUR FLOW not THE FLOW!”

Ali’s photo attracted a mixture of reactions from followers, with some struggling to recognise the star.

“Didn’t even know who this was at first when I was scrolling past, then thought oh maybe she posted a pic of her friend,” wrote a fan.

Others said they favoured Ali’s more natural look as opposed to this style.

“You look better more natural,” wrote a follower, while another penned, “It’s a beautiful picture but honestly you look so much better without makeup”.

But some of Ali’s fans absolutely loved her new sunkissed appearance, saying “Your make up is incredible” and “Looking absolutely stunning as always… Contouring suits you”.
