Coronation Street star Alexandra Mardell looked stunning as she changed up her usual on-screen look.
The actress is best known to fans of the ITV soap as kind-hearted barmaid Emma Brooker.
Ali, 28, from Leeds, first appeared in Weatherfield in 2018 and has quickly become a regular face on the cobbles.
But her latest look has left her somewhat unrecognisable.

The soap star took to Instagram with a stunning selfie surrounded by her dressing room lights in what look like her own home.
She gazed down at her reflection to show off her long braided locks, completely different to the short, naturally curly do she shows off on-screen.
"Hold your head up high…" Ali shared alongside the post, before joking: "cos the weave is heeeeeavyyyy!"
Corrie co-star Sally Carman, who plays Abi Franklin, was among the first to comment, writing: "LOVE it," with a string of flame emojis.

A third added: "Wow Alexandra your hair looks absolutely fantastic and amazing!!!"
Many more commented that Ali looked "Beautiful" and "gorgeous".
