Don’t get us wrong, we can never get enough of Live with Kelly and Mark co-host Kelly Ripa rocking her classic middle part and signature curly waves. So, when the daytime talk show host decides to change up her hairstyle, we certainly take notice. 

Earlier this week, the producers of Live posted a photo on the morning show’s Instagram page, showing Ripa, 52, and her hubby/hosting partner Mark Consuelos, 52, posing with one of their special guests, which happened to be actor and singer Josh Groban. 

Fans who saw the pic or caught the day’s live episode noticed something was different: Ripa’s hairdo. In the snapped photo, the Live Wire author is seen sporting a straightened style with her classic middle part. 

Then again yesterday on Live, Ripa and her husband Consuelos were talking about Scandovals (see below) and the mother of three can be seen donning the same straight style from the day before.

But were fans treated to this same look for a third day today? That would be a no. It seems Ripa has returned to her signature waves for Thursday’s episode.

Ripa is no stranger to changing her hairstyle. At the 2023 Oscars, the Live host debuted a more voluminous version of her signature hairstyle on the awards show red carpet.

Keeping her middle part, Ripa completely stole the show with her bouncy curls style, which framed her face perfectly. On Instagram, she gave fans an exclusive look into the process with a GRWM video, showing her hairstylist, Ryan Trygstad, working his magic before the show.

Loving all the looks, Kelly!
