In abehind-the-scenes videofrom the 2011Voguephoto shoot, theMidnightssinger explained more about the decision to chop her hair, now part of her signature look.

“It was a pretty interesting morning because they were like ‘We’re thinking we’re gonna do maybe bangs, maybe some extensions,’ " she says in the video. “And I’m like ‘You know what? Just cut it. this isVogue, why not.’ So I have bangs now.”

“A new hairstyle and new makeup,” she adds. “I love that I got to pose with my instruments. It’s just so exciting to get to make a departure from what people usually see me looking like but still be recognizable and it was a great balance with the two.”

Although 13 years have passed, Swift continues to own the bangs, while making subtle changes to them.

Recently, on the second night of her final U.S. tour stop on Nov. 2, she took the stage in a bright orange Versace bodysuit, her blonde hair down and straight. While nothing seemed unusual at first, fans quickly noticed that herhair looked different.

However, others X users were not convinced about the bang trim and wrote that they believed Swift simply “swooped” her bangs to the side.
