Brittany Mahomes has a new hair color ahead of the 2024 NFL season. The wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is now rocking red hair after being a blonde for years. On Instagram, Brittany Mahomes showed off the hair in a series of photos and wrote in the caption “feeling spicy.”
It’s not clear if Mahomes dyed her hair or is wearing a wig, but she credits hairstylist Laura Beth Cabott for the new hairstyle. Her husband showed some love for the new look by resharing her post to his own Instagram Stories and adding a heart emoji, according to E! News.
In the comments section of her post, Mahomes said her daughter, Sterling Skye, loves the new hairstyle. But her son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon, is still getting used to the change. “OK surprising Sterling loves it!” Mahomes wrote. Bronze not so much.”
