Author: Alex RossPublished 11th Jan 2021

Gogglebox star Stephen Webb has been a real fan favourite on the Channel 4 show since he first joined in season one, but the next time we seen Stephen on our screens alongside his husband Daniel, the hairdresser will look VERY different!

Stephen, who is a hairdresser, took to his social media accounts over the weekend to show off his brand new 'lockdown look', which resulted in him shaving off his usual thick locks.

Before showing off his new look in a handsome selfie, Stephen uploaded a video his husband Daniel took of him shaving off his hair, with a very worried and anxious look on his face.

After seeing his video, fans couldn't believe Stephen's selfie which was uploaded alongside it, showing the reality star looking more or less unrecognisable as he smiled for the camera.

Fans were quick to comment on his new look, with many expressing their love.

One user wrote, 'Makes you look really handsome 😍', with another adding, 'Oh wow ... makes you look younger 👍❤️'.

A third then wrote, 'Really suits you takes years off your face my fav couple on Gogglebox 💜💜💜'. Another then commented, 'Crikey, you look like a different fella. Love it. Dare I say it makes you look years younger 💕👍💕'. (sic)

The rest of the Gogglebox cast were also quick to comment. Ellie Warner wrote, 'Love it 😍 right now are you gonna wield your brolly at the paps 😆', with her sister Izzi Warner adding, '🤣🤣🤣 Lockdown life! Love it 😍'. (sic)
