Talk about a transformation! Justin Trudeau's hair has finally been chopped and he looks like a totally different person. He even said goodbye to the beard!

On June 30, the prime minister looked pretty sharp as he made a statement during the Generation Equality Forum.

Gone are those long and often luscious locks in exchange for a tidier and shorter cut, similar to the style he was sporting circa 2018 and 2019.

Trudeau wasn't the only one to have somewhat chaotic lockdown hair, as Toronto Mayor John Tory has been sporting a super voluminous hairdo for a number of months. We feel ya, John!
