Camila Cabello has revealed "it's taken a year" for her hair to recover after she dyed it blonde

In a post on Instagram, she shared snaps of her brunette look and wrote: "It's taken a year but my hair has finally started to forgive me for bleachgate.

"Dark haired girls who have made it to hair health again comment your tips like it's group therapy."

It comes after the singer previously opened up about her decision to change her look - insisting she felt in need of a "big physical change".

During an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she explained: "You know, I felt like I needed a big, physical change. I feel, I don't know, my dark hair has been with me for all of my life, like it was just a significant part of how the public saw me, how the world saw me, and how I saw myself."

Camila suggested her new style embodied a new era in her life and her music career, adding: "I feel like it's just been a year of, like, the theme has very much been 'play' and 'transformation' and changing and being brave.

"But I feel like also the music is so different, the world is so different that for so many reasons I was like, 'I feel like physical change needs to accompany that.'"

Despite this, Camila revealed she "tried on a couple of wigs" before she committed to going blonde but she had no regrets about making the decision to hit the bleach.

The pop star - who has a huge online following, including more than 65 million followers on Instagram - advised: "I definitely think you need to try wigs because it's such a big change.

"But I do feel like everyone should do it ... it brings out a different part of your personality. It's kind of like a YOLO [you only live once]."
