The Block's Tanya Guccione shocks with dramatic hair transformation

The Block ‘villain’ Tanya Guccione has swapped her trademark purple locks for something a little more extreme. The star, 41, looked stunning in her latest look, sporting a bright orange hairdo with bangs.

She shared her new look on Instagram, saying it was “a bit of fun” for the New Year. While she usually keeps her usual purple hair short, her orange locks cascaded in waves around her face and dropped past her shoulders.

She wore a sparkly green blouse, which had a classy neck tie detail at the top. The influencer chose to pair her new hair with a hot pink lip and heavy eye makeup.

Using a combination of hot pink, gold and blue, her eyes looked like a work of art.
