So it looks like Beyoncé was ready to, dare we say it, cut loose, after her latest Mrs. Carter World Tour.

The superstar pop diva posted some surprising shots to her Instagram this week, showing off her new blonde pixie haircut!

Wow! We totally didn't see this coming from the Queen B.  Even her loyal beehive fans were pleasantly surprised.

Beyoncé always looks great, but we were so used to her long blonde tresses that this threw us all for a loop.

The change, however, has done nothing to B's superstar swag, as the singer looks totally comfortable with her new 'do.

Perhaps the star felt the need for a change after wrapping her world tour and keep things short and sweet.
